In You the Writer, this well-known author team has enriched the best qualities of the traditional rhetoric/reader with the most current theory and practice. As the subtitle suggests, students benefit from the full integration of critical thinking into the writing and reading processes. Students move from writing about their own experience and observations to reading and writing about explanation, comparison, and contrast, concluding with such topics as argument, definition, and researched writing.
This thematic reader focuses on contemporary American culture and offers over 120 provocative readings and images representing a broad range of genres and diverse authorial voices.
American Visions offers a rich sampling of literature for writing classes with a multicultural perspective, exploring the historical context and contemporary relevance of major themes that have shaped our consciousness as a nation.
Introduces students to the diversity of their literary culture. Through its discussions, expanded canon, critical perspectives, and juxtapositions of similar works by authors from different periods or traditions, the book encourages investigations of literature.
