As writing and language teachers, we recognize the difference immediately; an event has occurred, and a new subject has appeared in the classroom. Increasingly our students struggle to pay attention, to dissociate from their cell phones, to complete work, to show up to class, to formulate their own ideas in long chains of reason. Indeed, in new ways, they are struggling to live and to learn. These are the individuals neuro-philosopher Catherine Malabou calls the "new wounded" - subjects characterized paradoxically by their inability to be wounded, to fail, or to feel. This book explores this emergent catastrophe through empirical, rhetorical, and philosophical analysis. Bringing together Hegelian philosophers Catherine Malabou and Slavoj Žižek, as well as affect theorists from the fields of rhetoric and writing studies, the book argues that contemporary writing pedagogies - including rubrics, scaffolding, and standardized instruction - have made authentic learning's necessary failures insufferable for many students, contributing to widespread disaffection and emotional divestment from education. While arguing that there is no return to earlier forms of student subjectivity, this book will offer pedagogical strategies for writing classrooms - and classrooms that feature writing - to begin addressing this situation.

By meshing psychology with literary analysis, this book inspires us to view the reading of fictional works as an emotional and seductive affair between reader and writer. Arguing that current teaching practices have contributed to the current decline in the study of literature, Jean-François Vernay’s plea brings a refreshing perspective by seeking new directions and conceptual tools to highlight the value of literature. Interdisciplinary in focus and relevant to timely discussions of the vitality between emotion and literary studies, particularly within the contexts of psychology, affect studies, and cognitive studies, this book will open up a space in which the formation of our emotions can be openly examined and discussed.
