This book argues that contemporary neuroscience compliments,
extends, and challenges recent and influential posthuman and new
materialist accounts of the relations between rhetoric, affect, and
writing pedagogy. Drawing on cutting-edge neuro-philosophy,
Comstock re-thinks both historical and current relations between
writing and power around questions of affect, attention, and
plasticity. In considering the uses and limits of exciting new
findings from the neurobiology, this volume both theorizes and
offers pedagogical strategies for teaching writing in a digital age
characterized by the erosion of wonder and pervasive disaffection.
Ultimately, in response to recent critiques transcendental reason
and subjectivity, and related calls for the increased inclusion of
multi-modal and digital writing and rhetoric, Comstock argues for
an embodied pedagogy that values the substantial relations between
writing and pedagogical care.
