초록

Literature Circles, which are collaborative and student-centered reading groups, are a teaching method that draws students into increasingly abstract and relevant discussions about literature. This paper proposes a way to think about literature circles vis-a-vis a Winnicottian psychoanalytic approach to Reader-Response Theory. One conclusion is that reader-response theory considered in terms of a pedagogical practice in the form of literature circles emphasizes the student’s ‘true self,’ which includes his or her own experiences in interactions with a text and a community. After introducing and defining literature circles, the paper will discuss Reader-Response Theory and Winnicott. Then it will detail the implementation of literature circles together with observations of student responses that to varying degrees demonstrate their efficacy.

Abstract

Literature Circles, which are collaborative and student-centered reading groups, are a teaching method that draws students into increasingly abstract and relevant discussions about literature. This paper proposes a way to think about literature circles vis-a-vis a Winnicottian psychoanalytic approach to Reader-Response Theory. One conclusion is that reader-response theory considered in terms of a pedagogical practice in the form of literature circles emphasizes the student’s ‘true self,’ which includes his or her own experiences in interactions with a text and a community. After introducing and defining literature circles, the paper will discuss Reader-Response Theory and Winnicott. Then it will detail the implementation of literature circles together with observations of student responses that to varying degrees demonstrate their efficacy.
