The Same Old Blindness
The latest issue of College English contains a review by Laura Brady entitled "Retelling the Composition-Literature Story." While Brady raises some interesting points, (and I agree with her that the composition-literature story needs to be retold) her choice of books for review and the substance of her review itself perpetuate an old problem and ignore a great deal of potentially important scholarship. The old problem she perpetuates is the view--simplistic to the extreme--of English studies as a bifurcated field, split only between literature and composition.
