Introduction to Communication Criticism: Methods, Systems, Analysis and Societal Transformations (Paperback)

Teaching communication criticism is an art, an aesthetic performance, a skill, and a practice that must be adapted to the specific and unique personalities of the students within a classroom. In publication for over four decades, Introduction to Communication Criticism: Methods, Systems Analysis, and Societal Transformations explores the degree to which methods of communication criticism can be used to enhance the conceptual power and understandings of students, motivates them to explore the nature of symbol-using on their own, and presents how they can improve their critical communication and symbol-using skills. No longer an anthology of readings, the new edition of Introduction to Communication Criticism is a full-featured textbook. This metamorphosis of delivery and content includes student friendly pedagogical features such as Chapter objectives, key terms, exercises, and more. Featuring new authors James W. Chesebro, David T. McMahan, and Dale A. Bertelsen, Introduction to Communication Criticism: Presents the basic vocabulary and principles of communication criticism. Discusses three orientations (Communication methods, societal transformations, and communication systems) to communication criticism. Examines the role of communication technologies as a relatively new mode of criticism and speculates about the future of communication criticism.
