ENGL 530 - Theories of Rhetoric and Composition

(3 cr) A graduate-level class that traces the connections between the contemporary discipline of rhetoric and composition to its roots in classical rhetorical theory. The course studies important statements on rhetoric by Plato, Aristotle, and Quintillian as a background for discussing how the five canons of ancient rhetoric (invention, arrangement, style, memory, delivery) have become key elements of contemporary composition theory and pedagogy.
