Excellent- More about Literary Studies and Well-Being: Structures of Experience in the Worldly Work of Literature and Healthcare
The literary arts represent and provoke experiences of understanding and emotion, and this open-access study examines how the practical pursuit of well-being in healthcare reveals purposes at the core of our engagements with and understanding of literature itself. The health humanities have focused on what studies of literature contribute to the understandings and practical work of healthcare, but Literary Studies and Well-Being turns this inside out by examining the intergenerational caretaking of healthcare in a manner that allows us to comprehend the nature and discipline of literary studies in new ways.

The literary arts have the power to evoke and provoke profound experiences of understanding and emotion, and this groundbreaking open-access study delves into the profound implications of pursuing well-being in healthcare.

This endeavor seeks to cultivate healthcare practitioners who are equipped to provide exceptional care to individuals who are facing illness, fear, or profound suffering.
Literary Studies and Well-Being takes a unique approach by exploring the intergenerational caretaking of healthcare, offering a fresh perspective on the nature and discipline of literary studies. Through this lens, we gain a deeper understanding of the ways in which literature shapes our perceptions, interpretations, and emotional responses to the world around us.
