5 Kinds of Nonfiction: Enriching Reading and Writing Instruction with Children's Books
by Melissa Stewart Marlene CorreiaOnce upon a time...children's nonfiction books were stodgy, concise, and not very kid friendly. Most were text heavy, with just a few scattered images decorating the content and meaning, rather than enhancing it. Over the last 20 years, children's nonfiction has evolved into a new breed of visually dynamic and engaging texts.In 5 Kinds of Nonfiction: Enriching Reading and Writing Instruction with Children's Books , Melissa Stewart and Dr. Marlene Correia present a new way to sort nonfiction into five major categories and show how doing so can help teachers and librarians build stronger readers and writers. Along the way, they: Introduce the 5 kinds of nonfiction: Active, Browseable, Traditional, Expository Literature, and Narrative -;and explore each category through discussions, classroom examples, and insights from leading children's book authorsOffer tips for building strong, diverse classroom texts and library collectionsProvide more than 20 activities to enhance literacy instructionInclude innovative strategies for sharing and celebrating nonfiction with students.With more than 150 exemplary nonfiction book recommendations and Stewart and Correia's extensive knowledge of literacy instruction, 5 Kinds of Nonfiction will elevate your understanding of nonfiction in ways that speak specifically to the info-kids in your classrooms, but will inspire all readers and writers.
El 5º evangelio: La proyección de Cristo en Federico García Lorca
by Eutimio MartínFederico García Lorca trató de restablecer el mensaje evangélico y para ello se propuso ofrecer en su obra un quinto evangelio. Los escritos juveniles del poeta granadino proyectan sobre la totalidad de su obra un marcado relieve de heterodoxia sociorreligiosa encaminada a la propagación de un humanismo mesiánico. El escritor Federico García Lorca se ha impuesto la ineludible responsabilidad de ofrecer, implícito en su obra, un nuevo evangelio. Eutimio Martín, catedrático emérito de la Universidad de Aix en Provence, realiza un amplio y profundo recorrido por la obra del universal escritor. Basándose en una sólida documentación, literaria y gráfica (a menudo desconocida y a veces inédita), analiza y comenta magistralmente textos en extremo crípticos, rescata al autor del asfixiante folclorismo en que se ha visto encerrado por una crítica miope o malintencionada, desvela la decisiva influencia de Victor Hugo, la impronta cervantina, el impacto de Antonio Machado y la radical aspiración al reconocimiento de una vertiente sexual a la que en modo alguno estaba dispuesto a renunciar porque en ello le iba la pérdida de su identidad. La abultada dimensión crística de la obra de Federico García Lorca puesta en evidencia por Eutimio Martín no dejará de suscitar una enriquecedora controversia.
