Seller's Description:
Fine in Like New jacket. Size: 5.9 x 1.1 x 8.6 inches; Dust jacket condition: Like New. Very nice and clean. Text free of highlighting and writing. Tightly bound. Examining the relationship between language and literacy and the societal experiences that help shape it, this political and polemical book builds on the author's previous work in reader-response criticism and challenges the now dominant assumption that language is an individual transaction independent of any social context. Moving through a series of interrelated essays, David Bleich explores topics including the social psychology of men, which he maintains exerts undue influence on everyone's education; conceptions of knowledge now offered by feminist epistemologists; social conceptions of language and knowledge found in the work of G.H. Mead, L.S. Vygotsky, Ludwik Fleck, and Mikhail Bakhtin; the influence of gender on language use; the views of current thinkers on the social character of the classroom and academic communities; and the process of individual language development. 368 pages. Philology--Study and teaching, Literacy--Study and teaching, Sociolinguistics.
