Zusatztext "This handbook simultaneously intensifies our field’s engagement with the digital while also slowing down our thinking about what constitutes the digital in rhetoric and writing. This handbook is thus a slow burn that thoroughly and dynamically engages the diverse range of approaches to digital writing and rhetoric." —Nathaniel A. Rivers, Saint Louis University "How do we write today? Who are we when we write? How do we shape the world around us through writing? This volume provides a comprehensive approach to thinking—from a wide range of perspectives, drawing a wide range of conclusions—about the ways that digital environments shape our understandings and experiences of writing today. Each of the essays that Alexander and Rhodes have gathered here works to avoid the short-sightedness of transformational rhetoric while nonetheless exploring what is in fact different about the digital age. Collectively, these essays demonstrate the complexity of what we mean when we talk about writing, a complexity that only grows as the technologies and environments within which that activity takes place continue to change." —Kathleen Fitzpatrick, Michigan State University Informationen zum Autor Jonathan Alexander is Chancellor's Professor of English and Informatics at the University of California, Irvine, where he is also the founding director of the Center for Excellence in Writing and Communication.
