More about the book

Exploring the transformative power of fiction in education, this book presents a series of original essays that challenge the perception of literary works as mere entertainment. The author draws from curriculum theory, literary analysis, psychology, and feminist theory to demonstrate how fiction fosters deep self-connection and awareness of social issues. Central to the discussion is the concept of "currere," which emphasizes the lived experience of curriculum through various literary forms, making a significant contribution to curriculum theory.
