This book brings together experts from a range of academic disciplines to examine how this reading has been mediated in Anglo-American contexts. Reading Mediation explores mediation across case studies of different reading experiences, practices and modes: It considers social and solitary reading; it analyzes ideas of text-reader interaction through book design and textual strategies; and it examines methods readers use for orienting themselves in relation to the text. Throughout it interrogates how values and assumptions about the effects of reading are implicated in its mediation, underpinning book collections, programmatic and parental intervention and facilitation of reading as well as the study of children's reading and literature. Employing a variety of methodologies, the essays elaborate how using \"mediation\" as a connecting node of analysis promotes interdisciplinary dialogue, and they demonstrate its value as a critical term for the study of children's reading, literacy and print culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction. “Mediation: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Studying Reading” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnne Marie Hagen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I – Historical Reading Practices\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1. “Socio-Economic Status and Varied Freedoms in Eighteenth-Century Childhood Reading”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElspeth Jajdelska\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2. “Enlightenment Reading Lists: Domestic Curricula and the Organisation of Knowledge in Novels by Women”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRebecca Davies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart II – Programs and Collections\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3. “Mediating the Archives: Child Readers and Their Books in Special Collections” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuzan Alteri\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4. “Bookbug: The Mediating Effect of Book Gifting in Scotland” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmma Davidson \u0026amp; Tracy Cooper\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart III - Textual and Material Strategies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5. “Reading Information: Using Graphic Language to Enhance Engagement with Children’s Books” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSue Walker\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6. “Mediating with Metafiction: Rethinking What Counts about Reading with Parents, Using Picturebooks”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJennifer Farrar\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart IV – Texts, Worlds and Mediation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7. “Mediating the Act of Reading through Picturebooks and Fictional Readers” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvelyn Arizpe\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8. “ ‘My World Has Become Smaller’ – Cortically Remapping Postfeminist Confinement in Louise O’Neill’s Asking For It” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFiona McCulloch\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lehigh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041684750679,"sku":"9781611463262","price":72.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781611463262.jpg?v=1750951292","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/mediation-and-childrens-reading-relationships-intervention-and-organization-from-the-eighteenth-century-to-the-present-9781611463262","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
