Paperback. Condición: New. Encountering Texts represents the theory and praxis uncovered through an ongoing interdisciplinary arts-based critical pedagogy that engages students in critical self-reflection (disciplined, sustained thinking, requiring engagement) on difference. The Multicultural Theatre Project (MTP) is a dialogical encounter with literature through the dramatic arts. This book provides a blueprint for the multiple ways in which this enacted theory/method can be utilized as a high impact practice toward transformative learning. The significance of minority literature as fertile testing ground for raising and seeking to answer questions about difference is undisputed. To address this dynamic, this research utilizes Hans-Georg Gadamer's hermeneutical method of understanding to engage students in the interpretive process using theatre as methodology. Gadamer's concept, described as a fusion of horizons, provides a methodological approach by which students can bring their own «effective history» to the hermeneutical task. He argues that hidden prejudices keep the interpreter from hearing the text. Thus an awareness of these prejudices leads to an openness that allows the text to speak. The MTP facilitates this kind of subjectivity by engaging the interpreter holistically. This integrative work provides a promising pragmatic interdisciplinary approach to teaching and learning that creates bridges to liberatory knowledge, both cognitively and affectively.…

Paperback. Condición: New. In 1991, Boyz N the Hood made history as an important film text and the impetus for a critical national conversation about American urban life in African American communities, especially for young urban black males. Boyz N the Hood: Shifting Hollywood Terrain is an interdisciplinary examination of this iconic film. Beyond the two historic Academy Award nominations for Best Screenplay and Best Director for John Singleton, the first African American male nominee and the youngest nominee ever in the category, Boyz N the Hood's induction into the Library of Congress National Film Registry by the National Film Preservation Board, speaks to the film's iconic and meaningful impact in film history and American culture. This interdisciplinary approach to the film provides an in-depth critical perspective of Boyz N the Hood, as the embodiment of the blues-how Boyz intimates a world beyond the symbolic world Singleton posits, its fictive stance pivots to a constituent truth in the real world. This book is as much about the filmmaker as it is about the film. It explores John Singleton's cinematic voice and helps explicate his propensity for folk elements in his work (the oral tradition and lore). In addition, the text features critical perspectives from the filmmaker himself and other central figures attached to the production, including a first-hand account of the behind the scenes during production by Steve Nicoladies, Boyz's producer, and an intimate conversation with Shelia Morgan Ward, Singleton's Chief Executive/Business Manager and mother. The text is a critical resource guide and includes Singleton's original screenplay and a range of critical articles and initial movie reviews."This wise and pioneering book is the first serious and substantive treatment of John Singleton's classic film! This film and book speak with great courage and insight into the plight and predicament of young black men. Don't miss this book!!"-Cornel West, Dietrich Bonhoeffer Chair, Union Theological Seminary; Professor Emeritus, Princeton University"At long last comes a book we have all been waiting for: Joi Carr's masterful examination of John Singleton's classic Boyz in the Hood. This book is an accomplished, enlightening piece of work, a great companion to Singleton's film. Highly recommended!"-Donald Bogle, Film Historian/Author; University of Pennsylvania; New York University's Tisch School of the Arts.…
