Summary:
"The first edited collection in at least thirty years to present strategies for teaching empathy in composition classrooms, Enacting Empathy is a companion volume to Empathy and the Other: Difference, Connection, and the Teaching of Writing, which focuses on the theoretical basis for empathy as a pedagogical concern. The two volumes may stand alone or be read together and are of great interest to writing teachers and graduate students invested in social justice in the classroom."-- From JSTOR.
