Political Poetry as Discourse

Rereading John Greenleaf Whittier, Ebenezer Elliott, and Hiphopology

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the works of the political poets John Greenleaf Whittier and Ebenezer Elliott, drawing comparisons to contemporary hip hoppers who take their words from local newspapers and other discursive sources that they read, hear, and observe. Its focus on language as unbounded discourse makes this book a relevant and insightful demonstration in democratic pedagogy and in teaching for transformation.
