How to Do Things with Incoherence

Peter Wayne Moe Kent State University ; Kyle Winkler Seattle Pacific University

Abstract

When students write incoherent sentences, it is common—instinctive, even—for a teacher to translate those sentences, to make them conform to the expectations of readers wanting clarity, or to banish them altogether. In this article, we consider how incoherence might instead be a site of possibility, of invention, of nuance.
