Working-Class Parents
Sinopsis
This collection of memoirs examines the
relationship between daughters with
academic degrees and their working-class parents.
Each contributor explores the influence that
higher education has had on her relationship
with her parent(s), as well as their influence
on her academic work. In writing that is akin to
archeological work, each writer sifts through
layers of experience and draws on the lessons and
language of home to consider what working- class
parents provide beyond food and shelter for their
academically inclined child, and what personal
cost is exacted of parent and child in the
process. Their stories provoke anyone who has
gone to college ? woman or man ? to consider the
influence of their parents on their academic
career.The themes in the collection fall into
five broad categories the value and power of
bringing the lessons and language of
working-class parents into the academy the
psychology of class learned from a parent the
ambivalence of love and pain associated with a
parent's sacrifice and the process of becoming an
academic the balancing act of straddling the
worlds of academia and home and definitions of
work that either complement or conflict with
those learned from parents. The memoirs
acknowledge in retrospect how each writer's
understanding of her parent(s) shapes her views
on education and work.
