Subject: Pedagogy: Literature, Linguistics, & Digital Tools

 
We are seeking papers for a volume of essays with a focus on an international
range of pedagogical interventions in the teaching of literature with a focus
on language and the use of digital tools.  The study of literature has taken
many turns since New Criticism of the early 20th century—Psychoanalytic,
Marxist, Semiotics, Structuralism, Deconstruction, New Historicism,
Post-Colonial, Feminist, Queer, and Critical Race.  All these various theories
nonetheless rest on a foundation of meticulous careful reading, or playful
misreading. That is to say, whatever one is looking for in literary texts, or
whatever frame one is looking through, we begin with the language of those
works. The digital tools that are now part of our reading armamentarium give
us powerful new ways to see texts and to see into them. And that, in turn,
means we have new ways to help students of literature understand and respond
to texts.

We welcome proposals for chapters between 5000-6000 words that explore the
relationships between language, literature and digital tools in pedagogical
contexts. Proposals

- may focus on any kind of literary text (e.g., poetry, drama, novels, comics)

- may have a specific linguistic orientation (e.g., functional, cognitive,
sociocultural)

- may examine semantics, syntax or another level of language (or combination
of them)

- may investigate a single text or a more expansive corpus

- may have a pedagogical/cognitive frame (e.g., drawing on the work of Jerome
Bruner, Paolo Freire,  B.S. Bloom, Louise Rosenblatt, Alfred North Whitehead)

- may utilize any number of technological tools that help students see into
the language of the literature

To submit: please email the editors an abstract of 250 words, a brief
bibliography of 5-10 key sources, and a brief biography of 100 words
