The Affects of Pedagogy in Literary Studies cover

The Affects of Pedagogy in Literary Studies considers the ways in which teachers and students are affected by our encounters with literature and other cultural texts in the higher education classroom. The essays consider the range of emotions and affects elicited by teaching settings and practices: those moments when we in the university are caught off-guard and made uncomfortable, or experience joy, anger, boredom, and surprise. Featuring writing by teachers at different stages in their career, institutions, and national or cultural settings, the book is an innovative and necessary addition to both the study of affect, theories of learning and teaching, and the fields of literary and cultural studies.

"The Affects of Pedagogy gives new knowledge to the overlapping spaces of literary studies, its pedagogies and its affective intersections. Authors work through their thinking on the page, open and available for readers to follow the highs and lows of teaching literary studies. …The collection reignites my passion for the scholarship of teaching and learning in literary studies in the way it triangulates the connection between students and their lived experience, instructors as affective domains of vulnerable knowledge, and literary texts as windows on the world and doorways to new thinking."

-Tully Barnett (she/her), Senior Lecturer in Creative Industries, Flinders University, Australia
