Literature-Based Reading in a Basal World: The Dilemma of Double Vision.
Nastase, Nedra K.; Corbett, Frank, Jr.
Reading Improvement, v35 n2 p50-72 Sum 1998
Considers "what didn't work" in literature-based reading programs. Analyzes messages to teachers in teachers' guides for such programs published between 1990 and 1995. Follows M. Foucault's interpretations of historical, social, and cultural constructions of discourses. Finds the literature-based visions become blurred as the mixed messages of literature-based philosophies and basal methodologies struggle to share a single vision. (PA)
