The Mythopoetics of Currere Summary

The Mythopoetics of Currere: Memories, Dreams, and Literary Texts as Teaching Avenues to Self-Study by Mary Aswell Doll

In The Mythopoetics of Currere, Doll uses depth psychology, myth, and literature to offer a new approach to currere, the root of curriculum, through essays exploring significant literary images that open doorways into the fictions that layer the self. Offering a focus on the body, queer love, false belief, strangeness, otherness, and chaos, this book suggests new metaphors for understanding why currere is what matters most in curriculum.
