Teaching English Literature and Interdisciplinarity

When used as an interpretive tool or method, interdisciplinarity promises multiple possible meanings of a text, and at the same time allows its practitioners to engage with issues that go beyond strictly ‘literary’ and involve larger humanity. This book aspires to provide the practitioners of English studies from diverse academic locations with an occasion for further explorations into different aspects of teaching English and interdisciplinarity. By dealing with literary pieces written in different historical periods and geographical locations, and including chapters on multiple fields such as feminist studies, film studies, colonisation, cultural studies, surveillance technology, psychology, and global Englishes, this edited collection attempts to provide a global perspective to interdisciplinarity and to widen horizons by discovering the undiscovered. The book therefore has the potential to attract academics and researchers of English literature, and interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary studies across the world.
