The document summarizes different theories of composition over time, beginning with expressionist rhetoric which viewed writing as a way to express the self. It then discusses social epistemic rhetoric which sees writing as socially constructed and influenced by cultural and social contexts. The document questions if there can be a single definition of "good writing" given that writing is rhetorical and dependent on context.

Dialogism
Mikhail Bakhtin was a Russian philosopher who developed the theory of dialogism, which views all communication and cognition as dialogical processes that occur both internally and externally between individuals. Some key aspects of dialogism include: seeing utterances as dependent on responses from others; understanding that meaning is constructed through coordinated interactions between participants; and recognizing that acts are situated within broader social activities. Dialogism emphasizes the social and interactive nature of language and learning.

This document summarizes a research paper that applies Mikhail Bakhtin's concept of dialogism to analyze themes of pain and pleasure in John Keats's odes. It discusses how Bakhtin viewed language as inherently dialogic and meaning as emerging through dialogue. The document reviews literature on previous analyses of Keats's poems and argues his odes express a dialogic engagement with social and political issues of his time through themes. It concludes that examining Keats's odes through a Bakhtinian lens can provide new insights into his responses to the cultural context and "troubled society" he observed.
Mikhail mikhailovich bakhtin, lecture outline
Mikhail Bakhtin was a Russian philosopher and scholar who worked on literary theory, ethics, and philosophy of language. He believed that language is learned through social interaction and that all language use has a point of view and context, making it inherently ideological. Bakhtin also argued that every utterance is a product of interaction between speakers and is influenced by the social situation. He developed concepts of how languages have centripetal forces that aim to standardize language but also centrifugal forces from diverse social uses that challenge standardization and make language heteroglossic.
Modernist literature
Mikhail Bakhtin was a pioneer of dialogic criticism, which views meaning as arising from the dynamic relationship between speakers. For Bakhtin, all thought and language exists in a state of dialogue and difference. Harold Pinter's play The Birthday Party uses deceptive and incoherent dialogues to portray communication as unreliable and useless for conversation between uninterested characters. Dialogic criticism can help interpret modern works like The Birthday Party by clarifying the principle of dialogue within the play.
Post Structuralism
This document provides an overview of post-structuralism and how it differs from structuralism. It emerged in France in the 1960s as a critique of structuralism. Post-structuralism holds that studying underlying structures is culturally conditioned and subject to biases. It focuses on how systems of knowledge produce objects and meanings rather than discovering fixed meanings. Prominent post-structuralist thinkers included Derrida, Foucault, Barthes, and Kristeva. Derrida criticized structuralism for assuming a fixed center that organizes structure. Post-structuralism emphasizes the instability of meaning and the role of the reader in interpreting texts rather than the author's intended meaning.
The Necklace
This document discusses the role of literary theory in understanding literature. It provides examples of different literary theories, such as formalism and structuralism, and how they can be used to analyze short stories. Formalism focuses on analyzing individual elements of a work separately, like characters and setting, then combining them to interpret meaning. Structuralism sees the entire text as functioning together and examines signs and how readers interpret them. The document also addresses some critiques of these theories and provides citations for further research.
Derrida’s post structuralism
Derrida developed the concept of deconstruction as a form of textual analysis. It focuses on how language and texts have multiple meanings due to differences in interpretation over time and space. Derrida argued that searching for a single fixed meaning in a text is misguided, as the unstable nature of signs and language means meanings are deferred and undecidable. His work challenged structuralism and emphasized how language constructs reality rather than reflects it. Deconstruction remains influential in literary theory by examining silences and absences in texts.

Murakami Too is a tool that translates text into the writing style of Japanese author Haruki Murakami. It works by identifying hallmarks of Murakami's prose, like commonly used words, recurring phrases, and grammatical structures found in his works. The tool then replaces or appends elements in the input text based on Murakami's identified stylistic tendencies to output a translation of the text in his distinctive writing style.
Comparative study of structuralism & deconstruction
Structuralism analyzes large systems by examining the smallest elements and their relations. It originated from Saussure's linguistics and was applied to literature by critics like Barthes. Structuralists believe texts function as sign systems and can be understood through techniques like dissection and analysis of binary oppositions. However, it is criticized as being static and ignoring individual works.
Deconstruction, initiated by Derrida, challenges assumptions of Structuralism through concepts like différance and by dissolving binary oppositions. It argues meaning is deferred and ambiguous. While related to Structuralism, Deconstruction rejects the view of texts as closed systems and emphasizes ambiguity and multiple interpretations over identifying patterns. Both aim to understand deep meanings but have
Deconstruction
Deconstruction is a philosophical and literary theory that challenges traditional interpretations of texts by questioning assumptions about meaning, identity, and language. It aims to undermine systems of thought based on stable concepts of self, world, and meaning. Jacques Derrida developed these ideas and conducted deconstructive readings of many thinkers, showing how meaning depends on linguistic and conceptual relationships rather than correspondence to external realities.
Literary Theory & Criticism pt. 2: Structuralism
Structuralism views all aspects of culture and society as having an underlying structure or order. It originated in early 20th century structural linguistics with Ferdinand de Saussure, who saw language as a system of signs defined by their relationships rather than direct connections to meaning. Roman Jakobson later expanded on this, noting that linguistic units have both paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations. Structuralism analyzes texts by examining the underlying patterns and binary oppositions that make up their hidden logic and structure.
Structuralism Sajid1
Structuralism is based on the linguistic theories of Ferdinand de Saussure and was developed further by Roman Jakobson. It views phenomena like myths, rituals, or texts as systems of signs governed by underlying rules or structures. A structuralist analysis aims to uncover these deep structures by examining how the elements of a system relate to each other synchronically. The document provides an example of how a structuralist might analyze a simple story by reducing it to an abstract system of signifiers like "high", "low", and "middle" that follow predictable patterns.
Deconstruction
Deconstructionist criticism closely analyzes individual words and images in a text, but believes that language is inherently unstable and cannot represent a definite meaning. Deconstructionists aim to show how texts can be broken down into contradictory positions by proving the instability of language. They reject the idea that authors fully control the meaning of their texts and that literary works have a single, fixed meaning. Major goals of deconstructionist criticism are to show how texts can "deconstruct" and to understand how some interpretations become regarded as truth while questioning the provisional nature of supposed truths.
difference structuralism & post-structuralism
Structuralism and post-structuralism differ in their theoretical origins, tones, and projects. Structuralism derives from linguistics and aims to find reliable truths through logical deduction and systematic analysis. It uses a neutral, typical tone. Post-structuralism derives from philosophy and is skeptical in nature, questioning assumptions through word play, puns, and allusion. It sees language as threatening and reality as textual. Post-structuralism aims to deconstruct texts through highlighting contradictions, shifts, and absences rather than finding coherence.

This document discusses structuralism as a literary movement. It began in the 1950s with Claude Levi-Strauss and views all human activities and products as being constructed rather than natural. Structuralism holds that meaning comes from relationships within a system or structure rather than from inherent qualities. A key idea is that language constructs our perception of reality rather than just describing it. The document outlines some of the key concepts of structuralism, including that signs are arbitrary and relational, and that structures determine how elements are positioned within a whole system.
An Introduction to Formalism
Formalism was a school of literary criticism that originated in Russia in the early 20th century. It focused on analyzing the form and structure of literary texts rather than their context or themes. Key concepts of formalism include defamiliarization, where literary texts make familiar things strange through unique forms; fabula versus syuzhet, distinguishing the chronological story from its presentation; and literariness, what makes a text literary through defamiliarizing language. Formalism was later developed by French structuralism and influenced theories in English and America.
Formalism
Formalism was a literary theory that arose in Russia in the 1920s-1930s and focused on analyzing the form and structure of literary texts rather than their content or context. The Russian Formalists rejected previous subjective literary criticism and sought to scientifically describe literature as a special use of language. They emphasized examining the formal devices used in texts, such as literary language versus ordinary language, defamiliarization techniques, foregrounding, narration and plot structure. The goal was to understand the "literariness" or what makes a text literary through its formal elements alone.

Poststructuralism holds that meaning is fluid and unstable as the relationship between signs (words) and concepts is not fixed. Poststructural criticism seeks to reveal inconsistencies in logic and meaning within texts to undermine their authority. All texts exist in relation to other texts through similarities, references, and contexts. Readers approach works with frames of reference shaped by experience, while authors can play with expectations created by these frames.

Deconstruction
Deconstruction challenges conventional notions of stability in language, meaning, and identity. It undermines tendencies toward systematization and aims to display how logocentrism constructs reality through language. For deconstructionists, there is no truth or reality outside of linguistic relations; reality is a linguistic construct shaped by social, political, and economic forces. The main figure of deconstruction is Jacques Derrida, who conducted influential deconstructive readings and revealed how structuralist thought constructs meaning and identity through language.
Post-structuralism and deconstruction
Post-structuralism emerged in the 1960s as a response to structuralism. It focuses on examining sources of meaning beyond the author, such as readers and cultural norms. Key figures include Roland Barthes, who argued the author is not the prime source of a text's meaning, and Jacques Derrida, who proposed theoretical limitations to structuralism. Post-structuralism differs from structuralism in its philosophical origins, emphasis on language as unstable rather than orderly, and aim to question assumptions rather than establish truth. Deconstruction examines how meanings play in language and change over contexts to understand silenced voices.
Structuralism and Post Structuralism
This PowerPoint goes through what structuralism and post structuralism is, and how it relates to Media Studies.
Deconstruction
Deconstruction is a strategy for analyzing texts developed by Jacques Derrida that focuses on ambiguities and contradictions in language. It originated from thinkers like Rene Descartes and Fredrick Nietzsche who questioned the objective truth of language. Structuralism, which sought to understand how language systems work, preceded deconstruction. Ferdinand de Saussure's study of language introduced concepts like the signifier/signified and langue/parole that deconstruction examines. Deconstruction analyzes binary oppositions in texts and seeks to reverse the relationship between dominant and non-dominant elements.
Formalism
Russian Formalism emerged in the early 20th century as a reaction against previous historical, biographical, and psychological approaches to literary study. It emphasized close analysis of the formal literary elements and devices within a text over external concerns. Major Russian Formalist theorists included Victor Shklovsky, Boris Eichenbaum, and Roman Jakobson. They viewed literature as a system made up of autonomous components that make familiar things strange through defamiliarization. By the late 1920s, Russian Formalism declined due to outside pressure and doubts about its purely formal approach.
Structuralism, post structuralism and deconstruction
Structuralism first emerged in the 19th century and was further developed in the 20th century by Ferdinand de Saussure. It approaches the analysis of narratives as cultural productions and views the structure and relationships within a text as more important than the writer or critic. Post-structuralism built upon these ideas, arguing that meaning is not fixed and that all elements within a text can act as signifiers for other elements, with no single interpretation holding authority.
Jakobson
Roman Jakobson was a famous Russian linguist who emigrated to Czechoslovakia and the United States. He was a leading figure of the Moscow Linguistic Circle and co-founder of the Prague Linguistic Circle. In his 1959 essay "On Linguistic Aspects of Translation," Jakobson defined three types of translation: intralingual translation within one language, interlingual translation between two languages, and intersemiotic translation from verbal language to nonverbal sign systems.

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to review the underlying concepts, theoretical background, the existing definitions, various forms of collaborative writing normally used in educational settings as well as some sample studies carried out in different contexts. The article begins by providing an epistemological dichotomy of the existing educational paradigms and discusses the positioning of collaborative learning in relation to the dichotomy (transmissional vs. transformative). It then considers how collaborative writing is theoretically backed up by the ideas of Bakhtin (1981), Halliday (1978), and Vygotsky (1978). The review also compares the salient definitions of collaborative writing and critically contrasts various configurations of collaborative writing with regard to the findings of research studies. The article concludes by recommending a few directions for the future research. Cognitive, affective and expressive stylistics, CDA and stylistics
This document provides an overview of cognitive, affective, and expressive stylistics as well as their relationships to critical discourse analysis. Cognitive stylistics analyzes the mental processes of readers when engaging with texts. Affective stylistics focuses on how texts aim to encourage or influence readers' emotions and beliefs. Expressive stylistics examines how an author's personality and inner self are revealed through their linguistic style. Critical discourse analysis aims to uncover the ideologies embedded in texts and how power relations are encoded through language. Critical stylistics combines tools from stylistics and critical linguistics to systematically analyze how the linguistic features of a text convey its underlying ideology.
Literary-Criticisms.pdf
Literary criticism involves analyzing works of literature to understand what is important about the text, such as its structure, context, themes, and how it manipulates the reader. There are many different schools of literary criticism that provide different lenses for examining literature, such as formalism, which focuses only on elements within the text, and reader-response criticism, which emphasizes the reader's role in interpreting the work. Understanding literature requires considering multiple critical perspectives.

The document explores how metaphors provide new ways of conceptualizing familiar things and familiar ways of understanding unfamiliar things. An exercise is described where participants explore objects in boxes and develop metaphors for learning based on the objects. Participants then share and discuss their learning metaphors.
What is college level writing?
The document discusses disagreements around the purpose of first-year writing courses and different theories of writing instruction. It introduces the concept of threshold concepts that are fundamental to a discipline and occasion shifts in understanding. Workshop participants are asked to identify threshold concepts for composition courses and discuss how they demonstrate characteristics of being transformative, irreversible, troublesome, and liminal.
Week 4 540
The document discusses the need for a pluralistic approach to composition and world Englishes that embraces linguistic diversity. It critiques earlier approaches that promoted a monolingual model and segregated language codes. Scholars like Canagarajah argue students should learn communicative strategies for negotiating diverse language contexts, and that composition pedagogy should legitimize the use of vernacular varieties and code-meshing in academic writing. This represents a shift toward a translingual approach that prepares students for linguistic flexibility and pluralism in a globalized world.
Analogy And Metaphor Pedagogical Approaches To Creative Writing
This document summarizes a research paper about using analogy and metaphor as pedagogical approaches to enhance creative writing skills. It discusses how creative writing involves imagination and making new connections between ideas. Metaphor and analogy can be used to describe abstract concepts by relating dissimilar ideas. The document also explores how these techniques can organize thoughts and stimulate creative expression. Specifically, metaphor helps convey emotional states and analogy can translate complex knowledge for learners. The paper concludes that these approaches can deepen understanding and map writing development when used as instructional tools.
Genre based approach
Groups working in genre theory have different areas of focus, such as the social contexts genres are produced in, linguistic features of genres, or both. Genre theory views genres as social practices that have evolved for achieving communicative goals. There is debate around how genres and text types are defined. A key aspect of genre theory is that it focuses on meaning-making at the whole text level rather than individual language elements. Genre theory also emphasizes that language use is goal-oriented and genres generally move through stages to accomplish a purpose. In the classroom, genre theory risks oversimplifying genres when turned into prescriptive models.
Discourse Analysis by Christopher J. Hall et al
This guide for students and practitioners is introduced by Christopher J. Hall, Patrick H. Smith, and Rachel Wicaksono. This presentation talks about discourse analysis and its several definitions including the pervasive relevance of discourse (analysis), linguistic approaches to discourse analysis, social approaches to discourse analysis, and themes in contemporary discourse analysis. This will discuss the nature of discourse analysis in context significant to all PhD Language Studies students around the globe.
Saoni banerjee joint experience in crisis~a self discovery
This autoethnography examines the author's experience of a bus bomb explosion in a nearby city while studying abroad as a cultural outsider. The author uses two personal data sources: 1) A reflective drawing of shared human expressions of those affected and 2) An email describing the event in which the use of pronouns shifts from "I/they" to "us/we", showing a repositioning of belonging. Phenomenological and selective coding were used to analyze the sources. The crisis experience overshadowed the author's outsider identity and fostered a collective feeling of belonging within the cultural group. Personal works are less governed by power dynamics than written texts and thus more directly expressive of feelings.
A genre-based model of language
This document provides an overview of the genre-based model of language. It discusses key aspects of this model including that it sees language as a social process understood through texts, which are meaning-producing events that occur in specific social contexts. The model recognizes genres as language processes used to accomplish different social purposes. It also discusses the relationships between context, genre, text, and grammar. Context refers to the situational and cultural factors, genre to the language processes, text to complete communicative acts, and grammar to the resources and choices available to produce texts. The genre-based model views these elements as interconnected.
READING LIST NOTES, 100 books and articles for Qualification Test, 2013.3.20
This summary provides the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The document discusses theories of speech acts from Austin and Halliday, as well as theories of irony from Booth. It analyzes how utterances perform actions through conventions and how meaning is constructed through three metafunctions. Context is essential for reconstructing irony and interpreting discourse. The theories focus on how language is used pragmatically to communicate meanings and establish social relations between speakers.
