Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the reading practices in English-speaking territories from the 18th century to the present day. The author gives a comprehensive account of the emergence of silent reading, while discussing the role of oral reading in shaping the history of reading practices and the development of literature. The book presents insights into the historical significance of teaching students to read aloud and how this practice has evolved to create the reading culture we know today. One particular focus of this book is the philosophy behind reading education and how this has changed since the 18th century. Discussion of this philosophy includes its implications for contemporary debates over the teaching of reading in schools.
