Book Rhetorical Education In America

Download or read book Rhetorical Education In America written by Cheryl Jean Glenn and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2009-03-15 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely collection of essays by prominent scholars in the field—on the past, present, and future of rhetoric instruction. From Isocrates and Aristotle to the present, rhetorical education has consistently been regarded as the linchpin of a participatory democracy, a tool to foster civic action and social responsibility. Yet, questions of who should receive rhetorical education, in what form, and for what purpose, continue to vex teachers and scholars. The essays in this volume converge to explore the purposes, problems, and possibilities of rhetorical education in America on both the undergraduate and graduate levels and inside and outside the academy. William Denman examines the ancient model of the "citizen-orator" and its value to democratic life. Thomas Miller argues that English departments have embraced a literary-research paradigm and sacrificed the teaching of rhetorical skills for public participation. Susan Kates explores how rhetoric is taught at nontraditional institutions, such as Berea College in Kentucky, where Appalachian dialect is espoused. Nan Johnson looks outside the academy at the parlor movement among women in antebellum America. Michael Halloran examines the rhetorical education provided by historical landmarks, where visitors are encouraged to share a common public discourse. Laura Gurak presents the challenges posed to traditional notions of literacy by the computer, the promises and dangers of internet technology, and the necessity of a critical cyber-literacy for future rhetorical curricula. Collectively, the essays coalesce around timely political and cross-disciplinary issues. Rhetorical Education in America serves to orient scholars and teachers in rhetoric, regardless of their disciplinary home, and help to set an agenda for future classroom practice and curriculum design.

Book Elements of Rhetoric and English Composition

Download or read book Elements of Rhetoric and English Composition written by G. R. Carpenter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Rhetoric and English Composition: First High School Course This volume is based on my Exercises in Rhetoric and English Composition (high school course), first published in 1891, which, after passing through six editions, is now withdrawn from circulation. In revising, expanding, and perfecting my earlier work, I have been gratified to observe how much progress has been made during this decade in the secondary schools. In 1890 no one felt sure what rhetorical theories should be put before high school students, what practice should be given them in composition, or what relation the combined work in rhetoric and composition should bear to the study of English literature. The problem last mentioned has not yet been solved satisfactorily. That we have come to a fairly definite agreement as to the other two problems is due to the zeal with which teachers of English are carrying on their work, solving their difficulties by experience, and to the animated and effective discussion, throughout the country, of the recommendations of the Committees of Ten and Fifteen and the Conference on Uniform Entrance Requirement in English.

Book Invention in Rhetoric and Composition

Download or read book Invention in Rhetoric and Composition written by Janice M. Lauer and published by Parlor Press LLC. This book was released on 2004 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invention in Rhetoric and Composition examines issues that have surrounded historical and contemporary theories and pedagogies of rhetorical invention, citing a wide array of positions on these issues in both primary rhetorical texts and secondary interpretations. It presents theoretical disagreements over the nature, purpose, and epistemology of invention and pedagogical debates over such issues as the relative importance of art, talent, imitation, and practice in teaching discourse. After a discussion of treatments of invention from the Sophists to the nineteenth century, Invention in Rhetoric and Composition introduces a range of early twentieth-century multidisciplinary theories and calls for invention's awakening in the field of English studies. It then showcases inventional theories and pedagogies that have emerged in the field of Rhetoric and Composition over the last four decades, including the ensuing research, critiques, and implementations of this inventional work. As a reference guide, the text offers a glossary of terms, an annotated bibliography of selected texts, and an extensive bibliography. Janice M. Lauer is Professor of English, Emerita at Purdue University, where she was the Reece McGee Distinguished Professor of English. In 1998, she received the College Composition and Communication Conference's Exemplar Award. Her publications include Four Worlds of Writing: Inquiry and Action in Context, Composition Research: Empirical Designs, and New Perspectives on Rhetorical Invention, as well as essays on rhetorical invention, disciplinarity, writing as inquiry, composition pedagogy, historical rhetoric, and empirical research.
