Teaching Literature as Experience.
Martin, Bruce K.
College English, v51 n4 p377-85 Apr 1989
Suggests an approach to literature (derived from post-structuralism and deconstructionism) which goes beyond the concept of "teacher as authority," without totally abandoning form or structure. Demonstrates this approach in a discussion of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" and Philip Larkin's poem "High Windows." (MM)
