Encounters: Readings for Advanced Composition features selections and an editorial viewpoint that is appropriate for advanced writing courses at Christian colleges or universities.
The publication fosters critical inquiry and response by challenging students to examine their own assumptions; to actively "hear" another voice and "see" another view; to analyze content, methods, and style; to exercise discernment; to evaluate and to synthesize ideas; and to apply insights to their own lives and cultures.
Encounters: Readings for Advanced Composition
- Helps readers encounter particular problems-posed by modern notions of work, ecology, and historical validity and meaning. They are challenged to engage these issues within the perspective of a Christian world view.
- Introduces students to the broad subjects of imagination and creativity, presenting selections that explore the aesthetic implications of Christian doctrine-particularly Creation and the Incarnation.
- Features a workbook format, unusual in an anthology, in order to teach and encourage active reading skills.
- Is interactive! Questions following each selection require students to mark or annotate the text, to analyze particulars of style or content, to explain relationships of textual units, and to question or apply the insights suggested by the readings.
