Writing in and about the Performing and Visual Arts: Creating, Performing, and Teaching

WAC Clearinghouse

by Steven J. Corbett (Editor), Jennifer Lin Lemesurier (Editor), Teagan E. Decker (Editor)

The performing and visual arts have much to offer writing studies in terms of process, creativity, design, delivery, and habits of mind (and body). This collection is intended for teachers and researchers of writing in and across the disciplines, in both secondary and post-secondary settings, and for those outside of writing studies who wish to infuse more writing into their performing and visual arts curriculums and courses. Filled with evocative images and vivid descriptions, contributors showcase ways of knowing and doing in the performing and visual arts. Contributors also offer teachers in the performing and visual arts go-to practical designs and strategies for teaching writing in their fields.
