Rethinking Rural Literacies: Transnational Perspectives - Paperback

by B. Green (Editor), Michael Corbett (Author)

The chapters in this international collection investigate a wide range of theorizations of rurality and literacy; literate practices and pedagogies; questions of place, space, and sustainability; and representations of rurality that challenge simplistic conceptions of standardized literacy and the real-and-imagined world beyond the metropolis.
