Description

The first in a two-volume set/ A Rhetoric of Literate Action is written for "the experienced writer with a substantial repertoire of skills/ [who] now would find it useful to think in more fundamental strategic terms about what they want their texts to accomplish/ what form the texts might take/ how to develop specific contents/ and how to arrange the work of writing." The reader is offered a framework for identifying and understanding the situations writing comes out of and is directed toward; a consideration of how a text works to transform a situation and achieve the writer's motives; and advice on how to bring the text to completion and "how to manage the work and one's own emotions and energies so as to accomplish the work most effectively."
