Abstract:

Straub challenges the dominant view that teacher commentary is directive or facilitative. Straub claims that these labels belie a simplistic dualism and eschew critique of actual teacher’s comments in favor of figurative description and a discussion of loosely defined attitudes. Straub evaluates the different comments on one student’s paper made by composition teachers Edward White, Jane Peterson, Peter Elbow and Ann Gere to better define a way to label and interpret comments and encourage all teachers to examine and improve their written comments on student essays.

Abstract:

Horner explains why and how insights of the basic writing movement got lost in composition discourse and the importance of recovering such history and insights from the movement. Horner argues that the terms of basic writing and its discourse (stemming from the 1970s public debate on open admissions at universities) represents a necessary response to institutional power that would marginalize students “deemed unprepared for college.”

Marback, Richard. “Corbett’s Hand: A Rhetorical Figure for Composition Studies.” CCC 47.2 (1996): 180-198.

Abstract:

Marback theorizes about open-hand and closed fist rhetorics. He analyzes events within the U.S. college composition community and in U.S. politics in1968 that inform Edward P.J Corbett’s 1969 CCC article “The Rhetoric of the Open Hand and the Rhetoric of the Closed Fist.” Marback claims that Corbett overestimates possibilities for ideal open communication. Open hand rhetorics can neutralize discourse by inscribing an exclusive liberal humanistic discourse that idealizes democratic free exchange and privileges reasoned written discourse over political material rhetorics. Marback further claims that this figurative discourse of open vs. closed hands impacts Donald Murray’s formative ideas of expressivism as evidenced by his 1969 article, “Finding Your Own Voice: Teaching Composition in an Age of Dissent.” Rhetorics of the open hand discipline the student to have to “hold the pen” and therefore precludes closed fist rhetorics. Closed fist rhetorics must be more vigorously interpreted, accurately defined and understood as a practice “mediated by the realities” of race, class and gender

Abstract:

Lunsford and Ede critique their published essay “Audience Addressed/Audience Invoked: The Role of Audience in Composition Theory and Pedagogy.” Their purpose is to resist “the lure of totalized oppositionalizing readings” through a critical inquiry that foregrounds the “rhetoricity ” of the article. By reflecting upon what it means to represent audience and by examining discourses that inform the article, the authors seek to raise questions about what makes for “‘successful’ discourse, disciplinary critique and progress.”
