Rezensionen

"Len Platt has produced a ground-breaking book. Joyce and Education is a forensic exploration of how Joyce's work engages with both the social and psychological aspects of schooling. Platt exposes how the structure of schooling and education at the time Joyce was writing, produced hierarchies and elites - something that endures within the education system of the here and now.This scholarly account is highly informative, readable and often amusing. This is a text not only for James Joyce scholars but for all who are concerned with how education policy and practice works to maintain social order and the status quo." - Rosalyn George, Professor of Education
