Encouraged by
\n
\nC.’s comment at cgbvb<\/a> and entries by
\nJeff<\/a> and
\n
\nDonna<\/a>, I’m in on the carnival; flipped through Fulkerson’s essay in the
\nlatest CCC<\/i> (56.4) this afternoon.  My general impression is that it’s an
\ninteresting overview of the discipline–engaging for the divisions he suggests
\nand for the grim note that caps the essay.  Good<\/i> carnival entries
\n(jus’ sharpening the axiology), I think, keep it to a few points, raise
\nquestions or pull on knots, puzzles and so on. Right?  So, on:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.  I prefer to think of the pedagogy volumes Fulkerson selects more as
\nitineraries<\/i> than maps (was also leafing in Jameson this morning for a
\nshort minute).  The itinerary anticipates the venturing out–into an actual
\nteaching situation, let’s say.  And while my experience as a beginning
\nteacher in the winter of ’98 might be idiosyncratic, the teacher training never
\nneatly matches the course.  First courses (and later ones?) are
\ngrubbier–responsive, gut-following performances that often map quite
\ndifferently than even the most keen plotter could exact.  And because
\nFulkerson’s essay closes with an eye on the impending "new theory wars," I’m
\nmore content with the notion of itinerary than map.  In one sense, then,
\nI’m trying to raise the question of the correspondence between edited
\ncollections arranged for teacher training and what shapes up in practice. 
\nIf we could map the enactment of the scholarship at a practical level, how
\ncompletely would the taxonomy correspond?     <\/p>\n

2. Fulkerson acknowledges that the chart (658) is inexact.  He suggests
\nthe fluidity of the categories, especially those defining the vertical columns
\n(evaluative theory, views of process, views of pedagogy, epistemology assumed). 
\nThe rows, however, also reflect four positions: current-traditional,
\nexpressivism, cultural studies, and procedural rhetoric. Only the last three get
\nsections unto themselves; current-traditional formalists, Fulkerson says in the
\nendnote, "you shall have always with you" (682).  And so the
\ncurrent-traditional model doesn’t warrant any reconsideration in "Composition at
\nthe Turn of the Century."  I wondered why current-traditionalism stands as
\nthe rock-solid camp of the bunch (a foregone conclusion, comma-splice menders?),
\nwhereas expressivism, cultural studies and rhetoric-oriented comp are the
\ndivergent axiologies–the less fixed models threatening to jeopardize the
\ndiscipline’s stability. <\/p>\n

3.  As I understand it, Fulkerson’s concern about the
\n(in-different-directions) march of disunity in the field would be well served by
\nsome agreement about what constitutes good<\/i> writing.  And yet that
\nthe field is somewhat more fragmented (after processual commonality) than it was
\ntwenty years ago isn’t a ticket to a desolate future, is it? Or a prediction of
\neven more dissolution in the days ahead?  What else might disunity say
\nabout the wellness of the field–the vibrancy of multiple, differing strains? 
\nProductive contestations?  Needed specializations?  Flip it over: One
\ncounterpart claim–an expression of grave<\/i> concern because of too much
\n
\nlike-mindedness<\/a>, too much agreement is even less encouraging from my
\nperspective.  Even more worrisome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
