Womans Place-Rhetoric CB

Taken from Back Cover. A truly liberated rhetoric and reader has at last become available to courses in composition, with the publication of "A Woman's Place." This unique textbook explores the notion of writing as self-definition and as a consequence, the relationship between gender and writing. Convinced that writing as a meaningful process, performed with commitment Dr. Morahan has created a course that simultaneously sharpens the writing and thinking skills and contributes to consciousness-raising of women and men in today's world. Her "pedagogy for liberation" creates a student-centered classroom, in which a spirit of collaboration replaces one of competition, by means of peer editing, tutorial approaches, and small group activities.
