The problem is that delivery has dwindled into a given; it has been<br \/>\nquietly domesticated into prevalent notions of the composition classroom as an<br \/>\nuncomplicated middle-class space. In an effort to restore delivery,<br \/>\nTrimbur calls for heightened consideration of (and emphasis on) the material<br \/>\ncirculation of writing. Delivery, he explains, isn&#8217;t merely technical, but it is<br \/>\nalso political and ethical (190). <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/inventio.us\/ccc\/archives\/2000\/12\/20_john_trimbur.html\"><br \/>\nTrimbur<\/a> sets out to accomplish the following:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b>redefine delivery<\/b> because it has been neglected by compositionists;<\/li>\n<li>account for neo-Marxist cultural studies curricula that emphasize working<br \/>\n  with &quot;<b>different forms and products<\/b>&quot;;<\/li>\n<li>draw on Marx to look at how <b>circulation materializes &quot;contradictory<br \/>\n  social relations and processes&quot;<\/b>;<\/li>\n<li>and discuss writing assignments that attend explicitly to matters of <b><br \/>\n  imbalance<\/b> between <b>use value and exchange value<\/b>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In questioning the prominent invocations of cultural studies in composition<br \/>\nstudies, Trimbur suggests, drawing on Marx and commodity as a &quot;category,&quot; the<br \/>\nentanglement of use value and exchange value. Each are inseparable from<br \/>\nmodes of production which implicate traces of production in the things<br \/>\nthemselves. Composition should make this focal in considerations of texts that<br \/>\ncirculate publicly or, that is, public writing.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;To anticipate the main line of thought, I argue that neglecting delivery has<br \/>\nled writing teachers to equate the activity of composing with writing itself and<br \/>\nto miss altogether the complex delivery systems through<br \/>\nwhich writing circulates.&quot; (189)<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Imagining cultural forms and products circulating through a continuous cycle<br \/>\nof relatively autonomous but interlocked moments has some important<br \/>\nconsequences&quot; (197).<\/p>\n<p>On cultural studies curricula: &quot;In other words, in the hope of fortifying<br \/>\nstudent resistance to the dominant culture, such assignments actually smuggled<br \/>\nin and restored unwittingly the close text-based readings of the specialist<br \/>\ncritic as the privileged practice of the writing classroom&#8211;the old story of<br \/>\nexplaining and having views&quot; (198).<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Here he designates the <b>commodity<\/b> as the &#8220;first <b>category<\/b> in<br \/>\nwhich bourgeois wealth presents itself &#8221; (881) and, in effect, provides a name<br \/>\nfor what circulates through the circuit of production, distribution, exchange,<br \/>\nand consumption as well as the theoretical starting point for <i>Capital<\/i>&quot;<br \/>\n(207).<\/p>\n<p>&quot;The process of <b>production determines<\/b>&#8211;and distributes&#8211;a <b>hierarchy<br \/>\nof knowledg<\/b>e and information that is tied to the <b>cultural authorization<br \/>\nof expertise, professionalism, and respectability<\/b>&quot; (210).<\/p>\n<p>&quot;If anything, this wish for such a <b>transformation<\/b> [switch to public<br \/>\nwriting], although surely understandable and well-intentioned, amounts<br \/>\nnevertheless to what I&#8217;ve already mentioned as the &#8216;one-sided&#8217; view of<br \/>\nproduction that Marx critiques&#8211;the <b>fallacy<\/b> that by <b>changing the manner<br \/>\nof writing<\/b>, one can somehow <b>solve<\/b> the <b>problem of circulation<\/b>&quot;<br \/>\n(212).<\/p>\n<p>&quot;What I am trying to do is amplify the students&#8217; sense of what constitutes<br \/>\nthe <b>production of writing<\/b> by <b>tracing its circulation<\/b> in order to<br \/>\nraise questions about how professional <b>expertise<\/b> is articulated to the<br \/>\nsocial formation, how it undergoes <b>rhetorical transformations<\/b> (or<br \/>\n&#8220;passages of form&#8221;), and how it might produce not only individual careers but<br \/>\nalso <b>socially useful knowledge<\/b>&quot; (214).<\/p>\n<p>&quot;The aim of education should be <b>practical<\/b> but not in the service of<b><br \/>\ncapitalist utility<\/b>&quot; (216).<\/p>\n<p>Terms: <i>in loco parentis <\/i>(193), &quot;real world&quot; writing (195),<br \/>\nmicroethnography (199), &quot;new revisionists&quot; (201), Marx&#8217;s linear model of<br \/>\ncirculation (205), commodity (206), public intellectual (212), &quot;passage of<br \/>\nforms&quot; (repeated)<\/p>\n<dl>\n<dt>Related sources:<\/dt>\n<dd>Hebdige, Dick. <i>Subculture: The Meaning of Style<\/i>.
