Princeton Goes to Prison: Teaching Paradise Lost to Incarcerated Students in New Jersey

Reade, Orlando (2024) Princeton Goes to Prison: Teaching Paradise Lost to Incarcerated Students in New Jersey. Literary Hub.

Abstract

An excerpt from the final chapter of my book, describing five years in which I taught literature classes in New Jersey prisons, and how it changed the way I understood literature. In particular, it advances an argument about the reasons why readers might want to respond to canonical texts in a disobedient way.
