Reviews
"""Where do eighteenth-century teachers know from? True to its title, this remarkable collection shares the processes of some of the field's most gifted and creative teachers. Anyone still trying to woo (and serve) their students with the eighteenth century should read this in its entirety."" -- Manushag Powell * coeditor of Women’s Periodicals and Print Culture in Britain, 1690-1820s: The Long Eighteenth Centur * ""This collection provides timely, cogent advice at a time of disciplinary disruption. At once deeply personal and highly theoretical, each essay explores how our classrooms are being transformed by a changing academic environment. And although it is titled Teaching the Eighteenth Century Now, it is really about our disciplinary future and how our work in the classroom can provide a rubric for both continuity and positive change."" -- Cynthia Richards * coeditor of Approaches to Teaching Behn’s ""Oroonoko"" * ""This timely and stimulating collection asks what teaching means in this historical moment and questions the relevance of the period study. Founded on the premise that, as academics, 'teaching is in fact what we do most of the time,' the essays offer insights, provocations, and inspiration for us all."" -- Catherine Ingrassia * author of Domestic Captivity and the British Subject, 1660-1750 * ""Wallace and Parker's Teaching the Eighteenth Century Now includes an impressive collection of essays by scholars whose teaching is grounded in a deep understanding of eighteenth-century literary culture. This volume responds to the need for pedagogical models that show how many of today's most urgent critical debates and crises are rooted in questions that emerge from eighteenth-century art and culture."" -- Patricia A. Matthew * editor of Written/Unwritten: Diversity and the Hidden Truths of Tenure *"
