About
A Therapeutic Approach to Teaching Poetry explains how the study of poetry, by providing experiences similar to those produced by poetry therapy, can help students discover themselves and develop their potential to effect change in the world. This pedagogy draws on a number of theoretical and therapeutic models including poetry therapy, psychoanalysis, experiential therapy, metaphor therapy, cognitive science, and neuroscience. This approach to teaching poetry is founded on the belief that education should not only develop students' skills in analysis and communication but also promote self-awareness and social responsibility. This book provides an innovative pedagogical strategy for promoting the development of individuals who can live more personally fulfilling, productive, and socially responsible lives..
