Aprašymas

Thinking Critically through Literature, Film and Art is a multidisciplinary guide integrating global literature, psychology, and philosophy. It positions critical thinking as a practical tool for understanding individual cognition, well-being, and the broader human experience.

The book draws on theoretical and practical perspectives from a wide range of global narratives. Materials for developing and practicing critical thinking include cave pictorial art, fairy tale, speeches, short stories, poems, short films, and literary excerpts. These serve as essential resources for examining the evolution of language, identity, learning, and thought in a multicultural context. Through analysis of this diverse range of texts, Maia Lamarque offers a distinctive exploration of mindfulness and well-being as integral components of the critical thinker's identity. The book also features practical exercises, discussion boards, quizzes, and mind maps.

This informative and innovative guidebook draws on the intersections between literary studies and film with social movements to provide scholars, students, and activists with the tools to develop their critical thinking and communication skills, and to actively engage in their cognitive processes and self-awareness.
