AUTHOR
SUMMARY
In Critical Literacy, Eugene F. Provenzo Jr. challenges E. D. Hirsch's assumptions about culture and education. Calling for a broader and more democratic vision than Hirsch, Provenzo critiques Hirsch's legacy up through the current conservative educational agenda for education which, he argues, denies not only the United States' diversity, but its democratic traditions of democratic participation. His book shows why critical faculties and skills of students are essential not only to the success of individual students but to their participation in a healthy democracy.Provenzo, Eugene F., Jr. is the author of 'Critical Literacy What Every American Ought to Know', published 2006 under ISBN 9781594510892 and ISBN 159451089X.
