Summary of SMP 11-16 Text Analysis

G Series: predominance of strategies that:
- restrict or alienate the esoteric domain
- elaborate (localise) the public domain
Y Seried: predominance of strategies that:
- elaborate the esoteric domain (generalise)
- restrict or alienate the public domain (eg by humour)
Recall G and Y 'police' texts:
- Y reader has a career within mathematics and is apprenticed into the esoteric domain
- G reader has no career and has no access to the generative principles of the esoteric domain
  - this is a dependent reader that is given no subjectivity: the privileged esoteric domain principles are invisible
  - there is a spurious apprenticeship into mythical (often domestic) practices—mythical as a result of the principle of recontextualisation: this is the myth of participation that claims that school mathematics will facilitate/optimise participation in non-mathematical activity
