Synopsis
This exciting title puts writing at the heart of the literacy debate. Looking at the vast number and roles of scribes in the cultural life of societies, Mace examines how the power balance between scribe and author alters in the public world. She considers how scribes keep or lose the trust of their authors in expressive writing; and finally sets out arguments for the 'language experience' approach to adult literacy learning and teaching. Including valuable research, examples and anecdotes this title focuses on how the scribed-for or 'authors' should be seen not as less literate than the scribe, but differently so.
