Dear Friends:

 

Please join us for yet another CLiC Talk, this one entitled
"Rhetoricians on Parade: Converging Technologies Across Time and Space."

 

		Who? Hugh Burns, PhD (Texas Woman's University)

		 

		Where? Gee Library, First Floor

		 

		When? Tuesday, April 13, 3:30-4:15

		 

		Lecture is Free and Open to the Public. 

		 

Tuesday, April 13, 2010, the Converging Literacies Center (CLiC) will
help kick off National Library Week at Texas A&M-Commerce with a speaker
event, the second in their new series "CLiC Talks." Presentation by
rhetoric and technology scholar Professor Hugh Burns (Texas Woman's
University) begins at 3:30, on the first floor of Gee Library on the
Texas A&M-Commerce campus. At the event, Burns will contribute
recordings of lectures with key rhetoricians to the National
Conversation on Writing (NCoW), a digital collection of oral histories,
lectures and other artifacts about writing and writers. The contribution
itself, coupled with the lecture, brings together technology with
archival work in deep collaboration with the Library-providing yet
another example of the ways in which "Communities Thrive @ the Library"
(National Library Week theme). [. . .]

 

Following the presentation will be the unveiling of a multimedia
installation coordinated by CLiC: posters, video, and other modalities
introducing research projects undertaken by current PhD students
exploring rhetoric in everyday, contexts.  Installation will be
displayed throughout National Library Week.

including a complete list of key rhetoricians involved in the 1999
speaker series. 

Until tomorow, 

The CLiC Team
