Ginocchio, Frederick L. – Social Studies, 1987
Shows how poetry can be used to bridge the gap between social studies and the humanities. Demonstrates that poems about Japan can provide a more comprehensive understanding of Japanese history, culture, and psychology than could the objective truths provided by social studies in that area. Includes a lesson outline and several poems. (AEM)
