Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book carries out an ambitious synthesis of historical and literary research to examine the complex and often contradictory conceptions of English composition that have shaped its teaching in American schools over time. It is a story of competing visions for composition instruction that have struggled for dominance in schools since their inception, making it a valuable resource for teachers, teacher educators, and educational historians seeking to understand the persistent tensions in the field. The author argues further that composition is not merely a skill to be imparted to students, but rather a complex social practice that involves more than just the production of error-free prose. In doing so, the author offers a distinctive interpretation of the history of writing instruction in the United States, demonstrating how debates about composition have been shaped by larger cultural and intellectual currents. This book will be of interest to anyone seeking to understand the historical evolution of English composition and its implications for teaching writing today.
