Literary Criticism

 

In Spatializing Social Justice: Literary Critiques, Maryann P. DiEdwardo uses seven literary critiques and seven reflections to share her newest research about the healing power of literature. She argues that literacy is the lifelong intellectual process of gaining meaning from a critical interpretation of written or printed text. Literary critiques explore the writer’s mind for symbolism hidden within the words, and writers of literary critiques listen to their own voices first. In this book, DiEdwardo touches upon different types of writing and writers who aim to explore the healing process through words.
