This newly revised Thirtieth Anniversary edition provides a robust
scholarly introduction to the history of writing instruction in the
West from Ancient Greece to the present-day United States. It
preserves the legacy of writing instruction from antiquity to
contemporary times with a unique focus on the material,
educational, and institutional context of the Western rhetorical
tradition. Its longitudinal approach enables students to track the
recurrence over time of not only specific teaching methods, but
also major issues such as social purpose, writing as power, the
effect of technologies, orthography, the rise of vernaculars,
writing as a force for democratization, and the roles of women in
rhetoric and writing instruction. Each chapter provides pedagogical
tools including a Glossary of Key Terms and a Bibliography for
Further Study. In this edition, expanded coverage of
twenty-first-century issues includes Writing Across the Curriculum
pedagogy, pedagogy for multilingual writers, and social media. A
Short History of Writing Instruction is an ideal text for
undergraduate and graduate courses in writing studies, rhetoric and
composition, and the history of education.
