"In this voluminous archeology of life in comics and its cast of hundreds of hauntings from paper figures of teachers and students, David Lewkowich opens the uncanny experience of education with sharp insights, theoretical sophistication, and capacious psychoanalytic observations. As character studies, the names, motives, and lost causes serve as funhouse mirrors to development's laughing matters. In Lewkowich's adept and courageous analysis, readings of comics become the royal road to education as well as a novel approach to the history and scholarly debates of dreams of education."
-Deborah P. Britzman, Distinguished Research Professor, Emeritus, York University, Canada, and author of When History Returns: Psychoanalytic Quests for Humane Learning
"In this deeply thought, theoretically astute, and page-turning book, Lewkowich serves up a psychoanalytic delight that dares to examine the under-world of educational life through a study of teacher figures animated in the work and play of comic forms, narratives, and images."
-Lisa Farley, Professor, Faculty of Education, York University, Canada, and author of Childhood Beyond Pathology: A Psychoanalytic Study of Development and Diagnosis
"Lewkowich's psychoanalytically-informed analysis offers a fascinating examina - tion of the fantasies and aggressions depicted in comic renditions of educators. The comics' depictions of teachers provoked me to constant and often simulta - neous amusement, horror, and outrage. The comics and analysis together made for a vivid, energizing read."
-Gail Boldt, Distinguished Professor of Education and Women's Studies, The Pennsylvania State University, USA
This book explores the distinctive narrative and representational gestures used to portray the personal and professional lives of teachers in comics. While serving as a reference for conceptualizing teachers in literary and popular culture, this book also turns to comics as a means to better understand and interpret lived, emotional experiences of teaching. Lewkowich discusses the cultural history of teachers in North American comics, and provides a series of thematic studies on the split and secret identities of teachers, teacher's deaths by murder, and the teacher's relationship to the thought bubble. He also outlines the psychic and social consequences of reading and making comics with preservice teachers.
