Hayes raises the importance of knowing and respecting communication styles within a marginalized culture. Diving deep into the region's historical roots--especially those of the Scotch-Irish and their influence on her own Appalachian Ohio--Hayes reveals a rhetoric with its own unique logic, utility, and poetry. Hayes also considers the headwinds against Appalachian rhetoric, notably the resistance from ideologies about poverty and the biases of the school system. She connects these to challenges that Appalachian students face in the classroom and pinpoints pedagogical and structural approaches for change. Throughout, Hayes blends conventional scholarship with autobiography, storytelling, and language, illustrating Appalachian rhetoric's validity as a means of creating and sharing knowledge"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Revision of author's thesis (doctoral)--Ohio University, 2015, titled You'uns : toward Appalachian rhetorical sovereignty. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 207-214) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: writing takes place -- Ethos -- Language -- Celtic rhetoric -- Celtic rhetoric in Appalachia -- Writing an Appalachian rhetoric -- When rhetoric is a deficit -- Categorizing education -- Education and rhetorical identity -- Rhetoric and repercussions. 650 0 $a English language $x Dialects $z Appalachian Region. 650 0 $a Appalachians (People) $x Language. 650 0 $a Written communication $z Appalachian Region. 650 0 $a Education $z Appalachian Region. 651 0 $a Appalachian Region $x Civilization. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190103015755.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5B7A29F4F79311E8BA923B1497128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
