Counter-History of Composition, A: Toward Methodologies of Complexity: 163 (Composition, Literacy, and Culture) - Softcover
Book 17 of 87: Composition, Literacy, and Culture
Synopsis
Contests the assumption that vitalism and contemporary rhetoric represent opposing, disconnected poles in the writing tradition. Vitalism has been historically linked to expressivism and dismissed as innate and unteachable, whereas rhetoric is seen as a rational, teachable method for producing argumentative texts. Hawk calls for the reexamination of current pedagogies to incorporate vitalism and complexity theory and argues for their application in the environments where students write and think today.
