Un/Popular Fictions (The Education Series)

Gemma Moss

4.9/5 (20048 ratings)

Description:Many young people take popular fiction as the model for their own writing. Yet little has been done to account for the preponderance of such forms or the function they fulfill for their writers. Concentrating on girls' use of romance, Gemma Moss shows that they are not mindlessly enslaved to the forms they reproduce, but are actively deploying them to raise rich and complex questions about social identity. She suggests that by drawing attention to the contradictions between the different sets of knowledge children use in their writing, questions about power and questions about difference, about masculinity and femininity, can be raised. Un/Popular Fictions examines the conflicting assumptions made about the role of texts in the social development of children, suggests new strategies for the classroom teaching, and offers new insights into ways in which cultural identities are negotiated.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
