Описание: Style and the Future of CompositionStudies explores style's potential for informing how students are taught to write well and its power as a tool for analyzing the language and discourse practices of writers and speakers in a range of contexts. Many college writing teachers operate under the belief that style still refers primarily to the kinds of issues discussed in Strunk and White's popular but outdated book The Elements of Style. This work not only challenges this view but also offers theories and pedagogies from diverse perspectives that help teachers and students develop strategic habits and mindsets to negotiate languages, genres, and discourse conventions. The chapters explore the ways in which style directly affects--and is affected by--multiple sources of shifting disciplinary inquiry, contributing new insights by drawing on research in cultural studies, sociolinguistics, discourse studies, translingualism, and writing across the curriculum, as well as new approaches to classical rhetorical theory. The reemergence of stylistic inquiry can be used dynamically to produce new insights not only about emerging disciplinary interests but also about the study of style as a kind of language in and of itself. Style and the Future of Composition Studies demonstrates that style deserves to be a central focus of writing teaching. More than just the next style collection, the book advocates for style's larger prominence in composition discussions generally. It will be of interest to a broad range of students and scholars of writing studies, as well as a wider set of readers in academe.

Описание:
It`s an eventful month for Jamie Kelly. Stinker and Stickybuns` litter of puppies has arrived -- which makes Jamie and her nemesis Angeline "in-laws by dog." Ugh.
Jamie`s class at Mackerel Middle School is doing a unit on journal-writing, and someone`s diary falls into the wrong hands.
But worst of all, Angeline and Isabella are becoming . . . friends.
Dear Dumb Diary,
It`s not my fault I know everything.
Okay, I don`t know where Timbuktu is, but I refuse to know that. Even if somebody told me, I would flush my brain like a thought-potty and wave goodbye to Timbuktu as it swirled down my brain hole.
I know everything that I WANT to know.

Описание:
Hope Springs Eternal tells the historical story of Mead Botanical Garden in Winter Park, Florida, the legacy garden of the famous American horticulturist Theodore Mead. Opened in 1940, it was one of the must-see tourist attractions of Central Florida where thousands of visitors enjoyed viewing the most comprehensive collection of orchids and rare tropical plants anywhere in the South.
For more than ten years the Garden was a major attraction hosting numerous flower displays and showcasing the beauty of Mead's lifelong passion for plants. However, once acquired by the City of Winter Park, apathy and lack of funds took their toll. In an action seemingly blind to the importance of the very things of which the City should have been most proud, the majority of the orchids and flowering plants were removed in the 1970s, and the Garden entered a forty-year period of neglect and mismanagement and degenerated into a weed-covered community park.
Since then volunteers have breathed new life into the botanical nature of the Garden, and a hesitant but persistent 21st-century renaissance has occurred. The strength of their efforts is a testament to humanity's enduring optimism.

Описание: Interpreted and adapted for more than a century, H.G. Wells` texts have resisted easy categorization and are perennial subjects for emerging critical and theoretical perspectives. The author examines Wells` works through the post-structuralist philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. Via this critical perspective, concepts now synonymous with science fiction demonstrate the intrinsic relevance of Wells.
