Louise Joy publishes Literature’s Children: The Critical Child and the Art of Idealization (Bloomsbury Academic, February 2019). The book brings into dialogue ideas from literary theory and the philosophy of education, drawing in particular on the work of the philosopher John Dewey, to provide a new account of the complex relations between literary aesthetics and literary didacticism.
