Abstract
The role models delivered by Romanian literature to their young readers (high school students preparing for graduation exam) are wanting in the aspect of gender. Unless one develops a methodology of teaching that can deal with this shortcoming of the socalled classical national literature, curriculum is bound to reinforce the prevailing gender stereotypes. When queried about gender, teachers think first of grammatical gender, then of literary genre, and thirdly of sociological gender. Textbooks ignore this aspect. Gender awareness can be attained through teacher education and by systematically including gender among the “values and attitudes” in teaching guidelines. © 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
