Synopsis
Rhetorical Grammar encourages writers to recognize and use the structural and stylistic choices available to them and to understand the rhetorical effects those choices can have on their readers. Rhetorical Grammar is a writer's grammar - a text that presents grammar as a rhetorical tool, avoiding the do's and don'ts so long associated with the study of grammar. It reveals to student writers the system of grammar that they know subconsciously and encourages them to use that knowledge to understand their choices as writers and the effects of those choices on their readers. Besides providing key strategies for revision, Rhetorical Grammar presents systematic discussions of reader expectation, sentence rhythm and cohesion, subordination and coordination, punctuation, modifiers, diction, and other principles. Studying grammar from this rhetorical point of view defines the study of language as an intellectual exercise designed to open up students' minds to the versatility, beauty, and possibilities of language.

From the Back Cover
RHETORICAL GRAMMAR is a writer's grammar - it presents grammar as a rhetorical tool. It provides a systematic way of discussing coherence and transition, reader expectation, sentence stress and rhythm, subordination and coordination, punctuation, and other principles, and of explaining - within the context of an individual student's writing - why one phrase is “awkward” and another phrase “a gem of precision.
