This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the historical development, principles of organization, methods, and techniques for implementing reading activities in library environments. It draws on both the extensive literature offered by the field of literary studies and the valuable experiences and data collected from organizing reading communities. However, the aim of the study is to go beyond a general presentation of the social and dynamic nature that characterizes the reading of literature within a reading group. The purpose of the book is to explore the extent and to propose ways in which modern libraries can significantly contribute to the development of literacy in readers of all ages.
The book is addressed to educators, librarians, researchers in literary studies, and to anyone who loves literature and reading groups, whether they have previous experience or not. Through theoretical discussion as well as practical applications, it aims to demonstrate how reading literature as a creative act mobilizes a wide range of mental and emotional processes, contributing to a holistic development of personality, as well as to a liberating and potentially psychotherapeutic reshaping of our identity. In these terms, engaging with literature may take different forms and methods, but it remains a deeply human need and right for everyone.
