Conflicting Discourses
• Rosenblatt: No screen
student interaction with
literature. In order to stimulate
student curiosity and to allow
the book to have direct
meaning to the individual,
Rosenblatt says that we
should place no "screen"
between student and book by
imposing the teacher's point of
view and critical attitude
toward literature.
(Clift, Meng, & Eggerding,
1992)
• Current Views

dichotomy between Vacca's
Content Area Reading ... and
Rosenblatt.
between soap operas and
Master's view of small town
life. I responded, at the time,
that I wanted students to
discover Master's vision on
their own and that I didn't think
the text was so difficult that
they couldn't easily discover
his "themes."
• Professor’s Response

contrary to the ideas
presented in Vacca. As a
class we could not really
reconcile this seeming
dichotomy.
should discuss the seeming
contradictions between
Rosenblatt and current
notions (my emphasis) about
preparing kids to read by
supplying a "set" or "frame."
Theoretical! Practical! Just
when I think I'm getting a

philosophy, someone else tells
me the ideas aren't "current."
