Abstract

This article considers the role of testimony in William James’s The Varieties of Religious Experience in order to highlight the unique style and structure of the text and its effect on readers. Understanding Varieties as a performative, multivocal, creative experiment in pedagogy and teaching puts the book in conversation with more contemporary theorists of liberatory education including Paulo Freire and bell hooks.
