Series Information: Modern Grammars
The Oxford Reader offers a renewed emphasis on more traditional
forms of literacy-sustained reading, writing, and thinking-which
comes at a particularly urgent moment. In a world of alternative
facts and fake news, the importance of a well and deeply educated
citizenry is reinvigorated. Even within the multimodal classroom,
many instructors have continued to introduce (or reintroduce) the
modes to employ readings that direct students to read carefully, to
respond and argue cogently and accountably, and to become nimble
and ready writers, no matter what they're writing. The Oxford
Reader distinguishes itself by offering not only an expected mix of
classic and contemporary selections, but also a variety of genres
to emphasize nonfiction, without excluding some literary works and
prominent pieces from blogs and other online sources. This spectrum
of voices, genres, and time periods illustrate that what is
considered contemporary thinking often has its roots elsewhere.
