The Mighty Child: Time and power in children's literature

The Mighty Child offers an existentialist approach to the theorization and criticism of children’s literature, nuancing the academic claim that children’s literature, specifically defined as ‘didactic’, alienates childhood from adulthood and disempowers its implied child reader. This volume recentres the theoretical debate around the constructions of time and power which characterize conceptions of childhood and adulthood in children’s literature.

British Spy Fiction and the End of Empire

British Spy Fiction and the End of EmpireThe position of spy fiction is largely synonymous in popular culture with ideas of patriotism and national security, with the spy himself indicative of the defence of British interests and the preservation of British power around the globe. This book reveals a more complicated side to these assumptions than typically perceived, arguing that the representation of space and power within spy fiction is more complex than commonly assumed.

Writing from the Margins: Power and Pedagogy for Teachers of CompositionWriting from the Margins: Power and Pedagogy for Teachers of Composition

Too often both composition teachers and their students experience knowledge and authority as unchanging entities that cannot be challenged in classroom exchanges.
Drawing on feminist, cultural, and poststructuralist theory, as well as work in the rhetorical tradition and composition studies, Hill offers less debilitating methods of thinking that teachers can model for their students. Richly illustrated with examples of classroom interactions and student work, the book also shows teachers how to enrich their own intellectual and political lives within the academy.
