ENG 3021 Spring 2022 Hennessey

ENG 3021 is one of three core courses for the Editing, Writing, and Media (EWM) track, and as such, the course works to provide a foundation for the major. This course traces scholarly definitions and conceptions of rhetoric through various time periods and mediums of delivery. The course readings will attend to how rhetoric is shaped through traditional conceptions and television and digital mediums, as well as attending to issues of gender, race, class, and technology. We will examine the affordances and constraints of each, as well as how these concepts complicate rhetoric, communication, and meaning making.
