DESCRIPTORS *Educational Cooperation; Educational History; Elementary Secondary Education; Higher Education; *Progressive Education; *Rhetoric; *Writing Instruction IDENTIFIERS Critical Pedagogy; Dewey (John); Progressive Era; *Progressivism ABSTRACT This book addresses some big questions: the current political climate, with its calls for standardized testing and accountability; the uneasy relationships between faculty in English and English education departments; and the (lack of) cooperation between postsecondary compositionists and P-12 language arts teachers. These issues are covered in the book as the ways are traced in which "progressive politics" of one kind or another have played an integral role in how writing has been taught and studied in United States secondary and postsecondary schools. The three chapters in Part I explore competing versions of "progressivism" in composition and rhetoric's past and present: the pedagogical and administrative progressivism of composition's early years (during the Progressive Era of the early 20th century); the recent "conservative restoration"; and contemporary critical pedagogy. Building on these discussions of progressivism, the three chapters in Part II work to reframe and reclaim Deweyan pedagogical progressivism for composition and rhetoric's future, showing how this strand of progressive thinking might help the field develop new, pedagogy-centered understandings and practices of disciplinarity, curriculum, and outreach. Woven in with the main chapters are "intraludes," narrative accounts of the author/educator's work_as a writing teacher, scholar, and public school advocate. These narratives illustrate and connect the issues highlighted in each chapter, grounding them in the reality of everyday contexts. (Each chapter includes notes; contains an extensive list of works cited.) (NKA) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.

To that end, the series pub- STUDIES I lishes historical work that considers the ways in which English studies has constructed itself and its objects of study; investigations of the relationships among its con- stituent parts as conceived in both disciplinary and institutional terms; and examinations of the role the discipline has played or should play in the larger society and public policy. In addition, the series seeks to feature studies that, by their form or focus, challenge our notions about how the written "work" of English can or should be done and to feature writings that represent the professional lives of the discipline's members in both traditional and nontraditional set- tings. The series also includes scholarship that considers the discipline's possible futures or that draws upon work in other disci- plines to shed light on developments in English studies.

PE1404 .G355 2002 808.042'0712dc21 6 20010.56295 I dedicate this book to my literacy sponsors: To my parents, Daniel and Maureen, who offered me my first lesson in critical literacy by driving me to a courthouse, paying a fee they surely couldn't afford, and allowing me to rename myself. May they see the legacy of that lesson, as well as their love of language, re- flected in these pages. To my brother, Jamey, whose writing I find inspiring. May he find in these pages some evidence that academic writing, too, can be worth- whileand readable. To Kathy Cain and Al DeCiccio, who invited me into their writing center and into their profession. May they find nothing in these pages to make them regret it. To Cy Knoblauch and Judy Fetter ley, who taught me that some con- versations never end but only get richer. May they see in these pages a contribution to discussions begun long ago. To Lil Brannon, who knows how to support by challenging. May she find these pages supportive of and challenging to her own think- ing. To Amy Lee and Shari.Stenberg, true "critical colleagues" for whom I will always write first. May they see our ideas represented in these pages. To Debbie Minter, whose generosity as a reader and a teacher I can neither match nor repay. May she see her always-generative response work honored in this final-draft-for-now. To Peter Gray and Stephen Foley, who have supported and ener- gized my thinking about things that matter. May they see theircom- mitment to creative teaching and learning reflected in these pages. To Steve North, whose good humor (curmudgeonly reputation aside) and professional example guide me. May he find in these pages an example of "making trouble elsewhere" that he can live with. To Kurt Austin and Bonny Graham, who saw this project through the editorial process with patience and good counsel. May they see their light-handed but steady influence in these pages. To NCTE's reviewers, and especially Ellen Cushman, whose advice helped me shape and sharpen the book. May they see their wisdom reflected in changes I have made, and mine in the changes I have not.

AUSTIN Advisor: Professor Herman L. Bennett This dissertation constructs a social and intellectual history of poor and working class African Americans in the interwar period in Washington, D.C. Although the advent of social history shifted scholarly emphasis onto the “ninety-nine percent,” many scholars have framed black history as the story of either the educated, uplifted and accomplished elite, or of a culturally depressed monolithic urban mass in need of the alleviation of structural obstacles to advancement.
