Surveying the Stories We Tell: English, Communication, and the Rhetoric of Our Surveys of Rhetoric

Melissa Ianetta ; James Fredal

Abstract

In rhetorical studies recent attention to the central role of pedagogy in the formation of disciplinary identity has obscured the disciplinary-based differences in the presentation of the history of rhetoric in English and communication classrooms. This essay surveys introductory rhetoric textbooks to contrast our presentations of rhetorical history.
