Isi artikel

"Teaching for England" consists of five allegorical poems exploring the axes of self to social and political to personal within the life of a teacher, as she struggles to relocate her affective engagement in her work at a time of political and emotional trauma. The poems offer scathing commentary on the technical rationalism that presently dominates mainstream education in the U.K. and the author's disappointment with New Labor. They represent her attempt to write self-deprecatingly, humorously, and against the grain of this ideology, while simultaneously harboring the possibility for (self)transformation.
