Understanding the Histories of Reading (Research Views).
Mosenthal, Peter B.
Reading Teacher, v42 n1 p64-65 Oct 1988
Discusses three approaches to the history of reading: (1) reading as definition, focusing on the features that characterize reading; (2) reading as cause and effect, focusing on why different definitions of reading come into being; and (3) reading as ideology, focusing on what goal or ideology is implied by a particular history.
