Envisioning the next step in the ongoing scholarly movement advocating inclusion of global rhetorics in the composition curriculum, The Inclusive Work of Global Rhetorics demonstrates that the question of why or whether to incorporate tenets of global/non-Western rhetorics into writing is long past. The focus has shifted to how to make this change—and to the best practices of such inclusion.
This book showcases the latest scholarship on rethinking the borders of traditional rhetorical studies, which are typically drawn within Greco-Roman and Euro-American confines, with the objective of incorporating non-Eurocentric rhetorical tenets into rhetoric and composition. This work fosters a spirit of inclusivity in the writing classroom by incorporating the many ways of rhetorical thinking gleaned from global/non-Western communication practices while also reflecting on their situatedness and intersectionalities.
Sitting at the crossroads of theory, methodology, and pedagogy, The Inclusive Work of Global Rhetoric puts in perspective a landmark moment in rhetorical studies, a time when it has become imperative to acknowledge the proliferation of non-Western rhetorical traditions in rhetorical practices and communication. Providing heuristics for creating inclusive composition/rhetoric pedagogy, this book serves students, teachers, scholars, and researchers of rhetoric, writing, and communication as both a classroom guide and a reference at the undergraduate and graduate level
“Finally we have a book that not only studies global rhetorics but also applies the comparative perspectives to the instruction of writing.”
—Hui Wu, University of Texas at Tyler
