Description

The first published edition of a previously circulated via microfilm and Xerox) campus classic, Kitzhaber's (English emeritus, U. of Oregon) 1953 dissertation, which identifies the murky origins of the freshman English course back in the 19th century, and traces the development of a distinctly American body of rhetorical theory--its sources, its rise, and its decline into a barren set of injunctions for linguistic etiquette (correct usage). Paper edition (unseen), $10.95. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
