The State of Scholarship on Teaching Literature

Paul T. Corrigan

Abstract

Not long ago, prominent figures in English studies found scholarship on teaching literature underwhelming—especially compared to scholarship on teaching writing. This essay's analysis of citations in recent articles documents that scholarship on teaching literature has since developed into a genuine scholarly conversation. However, considerable room for further development remains.
