Abbott, Ruth – Arts and Humanities in Higher Education: An International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice, 2007
This article begins by noting the tendency of certain academic practices to arrest thought, and attempts to circumvent that arrestation in the writer by reflecting on her adolescent response to the writings of William Wordsworth.

Ianetta, Melissa – College English, 2005
The bifurcation of rhetorical and literary traditions that has impoverished the understanding of disciplinary history as a simultaneously rhetorical and literary event is illustrated.
