THIS TITLE HAS BEEN UPDATED TO REFLECT THE 2016 MLA UPDATE. Commemorating 50 years of the The Norton Reader, in a portable and affordable format.
The classic reader that has introduced millions of students to the essay as a genre--available in a concise edition.
This is a book that celebrates student writing--and honors the teaching that helps students produce such writing. It collects writing done by college students across the country and includes a call for papers, inviting students to submit their own writing for a prize and for inclusion in future editions of this book.
Inspired by the need for interpretations and critiques of the varied messages surrounding what and how we eat, Food, Feminisms, Rhetorics collects eighteen essays that demonstrate the importance of food and food-related practices as sites of scholarly study, particularly from feminist rhetorical perspectives. Contributors analyze messages about food and bodies—from what a person watches and reads to where that person shops—taken from sources mundane and literary, personal and cultural. This collection begins with analyses of the historical, cultural, and political implications of cookbooks and recipes; explores definitions of feminist food writing; and ends with a focus on bodies and cultures—both self-representations and representations of others for particular rhetorical purposes. The genres, objects, and practices contributors study are varied—from cookbooks to genre fiction, from blogs to food systems, from product packaging to paintings—but the overall message is the same: food and its associated practices are worthy of scholarly attention.
