About the Book

David Bartholomae has been a prominent figure in the field of composition and rhetoric for almost five decades. Throughout his career, his focus has always been on teaching, writing, and the teaching of writing. These essays, written over the past dozen years, are arranged and unified by a thread that connects some of the books and ideas, people and places, students and courses that have shaped and sustained his work as a teacher of writing. The essays trace his formation as a teacher, writer, and scholar, and open doors to paths of study that speak directly to issues related to global understanding across linguistic and cultural divides. Taken together, the pieces in this collection reveal Bartholomae’s ideas about writing studies and the ways in which student writing and the teaching of writing contribute to and are central to the mission of the university.

About the Author :
David Bartholomae is professor of English and the Charles Crow Chair of Expository Writing, emeritus, at the University of Pittsburgh. He has published widely on composition and teaching and was the 2014 Pennsylvania Professor of the Year. With Jean Ferguson Carr, he edits the Composition, Literacy, and Culture series at the University of Pittsburgh Press.

Review :
Directed toward professionals in the field (or those in the making), this account lets readers in on David Bartholomae’s ways of thinking, reading, writing, and engaging with students in the context of a vibrantly evolving field. Bartholomae provides a well-rendered view of what it means to build a career, and as always, he inspires us all to believe in the critical importance of the work that we do as we find joy in the humanity with which we do it. I’ve always admired Dave Bartholomae’s work in writing studies, and I really enjoyed learning more about it here, including material new to me, on teaching travel writing. Bartholomae’s written voice is distinctive and stylish. He describes this as an ‘end-of-career’ book, but if so, it only reminds me how much more I would still like to learn from him. David Bartholomae writes about writing with as much intelligence and grace as anyone I know. His thinking takes wonderful turns that surprise and delight. In Like What We Imagine, Bartholomae both reflects on his classic work and explores new territory—a look back and forward from one of our foremost scholars of rhetoric and writing.
