Approaches to Teaching Atwood's the Handmaid's Tale and Other Works by Sharon R Wilson
Margaret Atwood's works, especially The Handmaid's Tale, are widely taught not only in literature courses but also in economics, political science, sociology, film, and business courses. Her writings span a variety of genres and address such themes as identity, Canadian nationalism, struggle for survival, sexual politics, and shamanism; this rich and diverse range has proved fertile ground for teachers and critics alike. Approaches to Teaching Atwood's The Handmaid's Taleand Other Worksis the first book to focus on the teaching of this writer's oeuvre exclusively.
