Book Summary
This collection is about writing contests, a vibrant rhetorical practice
traceable to rhetorical performances in ancient Greece. In their discussion of
contests' cultural work, the scholars in this collection uncover important
questions about our practices. For example, educational contests as epideictic
rhetoric do indeed celebrate writing, but does this celebration merely relieve
educators of the responsibility of finding ways for all writers to succeed?
Contests designed to reward single winners and singly-authored works admirably
celebrate hard work, but do they over-emphasize exceptional individual
achievement over shared goals and communal reward for success? Taking a
cultural-rhetorical approach to contests, each chapter demonstrates the cultural
work the contests accomplish. The essays
