But by the mid-twentieth century, they became far more self-questioning about their social assumptions, their educational theories, and the complexity of their role in a foreign society. Drawing on extensive archives of teachers' letters and accounts, Zimmerman's narrative explores the teachers' shifting attitudes about their country and themselves, in a world that was more unexpected than they could have imagined.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.4159/9780674045453}, recid = {1478793}, pages = {1 online resource (312 p.)}, }
