Composition/Rhetoric Reading List
What follows is a list of the primary texts upon which you will be tested. The purpose of the list is to reduce the amount of material on which you will be asked direct questions to a representative and practical size. It is not to limit the depth and breadth of your reading. Obviously, reading other texts, studies, and theoretical works is one of the best ways of preparing to discuss the issues raised in these works, and to give some account of the place of each in its historical and pedagogical context.
