Editorial Reviews

' - Textual Intervention

'An inspiration and teaching resource for those of us who have to win over students from the 'I only came here to read novels'school of thought... It will be my constant companion as a reminder to use synthetic as well as analytic means of getting students to engage with texts....I will beusing textual intervention techniques in 'Introductory Stylistics', 'Language and Power' and Creative Writing modules as well as trying to perusade my colleages to see the light' - Lesley Jeffries, University of Huddersfield, in Language and Literature

'The spirit of this textbook is exactly right for our subject. It fits well with our own experience of teaching: it confirms and extends our own practices as teachers. It offers a wealth of information about critical practices across a wide range of texts and, crucially for our students, it presents an engaging and interactive approach to reading and writing... The book is a pivot for much of our workshop activity' - Claire Woods, Ptoceedings of the Australian Association of Writing Programmes Conference, October 1997

'An energetic synthesisof critical theory and creative writing pedagogy, focused upon the active participant of reader-writers in sequenced, highly developed and very interesting interpretive projects' - Walter Nas & David Stacey, Creating Texts: An Introduction to the Study of Composition, 1997
