In The Mythopoetics of Currere , Doll uses depth psychology, myth, and literature to offer a new approach to currere , the root of curriculum, through essays exploring significant literary images that open doorways into the fictions that layer the self. Offering a focus on the body, queer love, false belief, strangeness, otherness, and chaos, this book suggests new metaphors for understanding why currere is what matters most in curriculum.


Mary Aswell Doll is Professor of English in the Liberal Arts Department at Savannah College of Art and Design, Savannah Georgia, USA.
