Narrative Acts: Rhetoric, Race and Identity, Knowledge

Narrative Acts: Rhetoric, Race and Identity, Knowledge (Research and Teaching in Rhetoric and Composition)

This collection of fifteen essays explores the rhetorical, epistemological, and experiential dimensions of narrative, particularly as it relates to teaching, scholarship, and research in rhetoric and compositon. Its three sections focus on how narrative shapes our understanding of rehtoric, race and identity, knowledge. Central to its focus is the constitutive and constructive quality of narrative: how it works to define and determine whowe are as individuals, groups and nations. At its core, the book operates from the assumption that narrative is both a mode of discourse or representation and a form of action.
