What Matters Who Writes?
What Matters Who Responds?
Andrea Lunsford, Rebecca Rickly, Michael Salvo,
and Susan West
George Landow, Jay David Bolter, and Richard Lanham
have
contributed book-length studies of the challenges, and the
opportunities, offered to literary studies by the electronic
revolution. And in composition studies, we now have an entire
journal, Computers in Composition, devoted to exploring these
relationships--as well as a number of dissertation studies,
articles, and books by scholars such as Sarah Sloane, Cindy Selfe,
Gail Hawisher, Helen Schwartz, and Myron Tuman. What I have been
trying to suggest is that, in spite of the lessons we've learned
from Foucault, it matters "who" writes and responds--it matters
theoretically, and it matters, most demonstrably, practically and
commercially. And it "matters" precisely because of that third key
word in my title--ownership.
