I'm really pleased with it. I'm trying it this fall in the regular comp, too.timnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985699859449138316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-92137115441300696062007-06-27T07:32:00.000-07:002007-06-27T07:32:00.000-07:00Hiya!

Just wanted to let you know that I tried to click some of your 'Bardiac's Best' links (in particular poetry blogging'), and they didn't work. Might just be something strange with my computer, but maybe not.melihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10026675747253438229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-35767035525166859452007-06-27T06:24:00.000-07:002007-06-27T06:24:00.000-07:00Thanks, Quills!

I've totally ordered early modern texts for our readings, but it might be cool to offer another view. Hmmmm.<BR/><BR/>TBTAM, Graff and Birkenstein's approach would work for any sort of writing where you're responding to someone else's ideas as a way of getting out your own opinion. It would work for a blog post where, for example, you took X opinion and explained why it wasn't quite sufficient, or why you disagree with it. It might also be useful where you take X opinion and frame it for a different reader (take a sci paper and explain to patients, for example). It's really aimed at college students, and does a good job showing how we position our work in relation to that of others. My students, I think, will find that useful at all levels.Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-12840231294189013142007-06-26T19:08:00.000-07:002007-06-26T19:08:00.000-07:00Never heard of They say-I Say till now.

It's just that the whole template approach makes me itchy.<BR/><BR/>As for the History plays, I'd love to sit in in that course. jsut out of curiosity--have you considered any modern/ contemporary history plays (or revisions of Shakespeare's History plays) as comparisons? It's probably late to compare such things, but it could be interesting. I'm thinking particularly of Canadian playwright Normand Chaurette's <I>The Queens</I>, an alternate take on Richard III...interetsing and useful for unearthing rhetorical function in the history play form.Horacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15662740021328265642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-5725219699753666422007-06-26T17:11:00.000-07:002007-06-26T17:11:00.000-07:00I am SO jealous of that history plays seminar.
