Lucille M. Schultz'S The Young Composers: Composition'S Beginnings In Nineteenthcentury Schools Is The First Fulllength History Of Schoolbased Writing Instruction. Schultz Demonstrates That Writing Instruction In Nineteenthcentury American Schools Is Much More Important In The Overall History Of Writing Instruction Than We Have Previously Assumed.Drawing On Primary Materials That Have Not Been Considered In Previous Histories Of Writing Instructionlittleknown Textbooks And Student Writing That Includes Prizewinning Essays, Journal Entries, Letters, And Articles Written For School Newspapersschultz Shows That In Nineteenthcentury American Schools, The Voices Of The British Rhetoricians That Dominated College Writing Instruction Were Attenuated By The Voice Of The Swiss Education Reformer Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi. Partly Through The Influence Of Pestalozzi'S Thought, Writing Instruction For Children In Schools Became Childcentered, Not Just A Replica Or Imitation Of Writing Instruction In The Colleges.It Was Also In These Nineteenthcentury American Schools That Personal Or Experiencebased Writing Began And Where The Democratization Of Writing Was Institutionalized. These Schools Prefigured Some Of Our Contemporary Composition Practices: Free Writing, Peer Editing, And The Use Of Illustrations As Writing Prompts. It Was In These Schools, In Fact, Where Composition Instruction As We Know It Today Began, Schultz Argues.This Book Features A Chapter On The Agency Of Textbook Iconography, Which Includes Illustrations From Nineteenthcentury Composition Books As Well As A Cultural Analysis Of Those Illustrations. Schultz Also Includes A Lengthy Bibliography Of Nineteenthcentury Composition Textbooks And Student And School Newspapers.
