The Seldom-Spoken Roots of the Curriculum: Romanticism and the New Literacy.
Willinsky, John M.
Curriculum Inquiry, v17 n3 p267-91 Fall 1987
In language education, several recent curricular developments from expressive writing to interactional reading share a common core of assumptions rooted in British Romanticism. This article compares central tenets of the New Literacy and Romanticism, focusing on the former's reconceptualization of the teacher, the student, and the language arts curriculum. Includes 67 references. (MLH)
