This well established series, AApproaches to Teaching …@ by the Modern Language Association of America enjoys great respect because it has successfully built important bridges between, on the one hand, research in the field of the Humanities, and school teaching on the other.
There is no reason to assume that high school students would not be competent enough to study not only the primary texts examined in this series, but also some of the relevant research. Moreover, having such a pedagogically oriented volume available, this can easily facilitate the rediscovery
of some of the heretofore rather neglected texts that have fallen out of general popularity.
