Viual Literacy "The Problem of Electronic Argument" by Michele S Shauf

Visual literacy--re: "The Problem of Electronic Argumnet" by Michele S. Shauf
Problems of visual rhet is that they think “old school”? Perhaps the problem is when their “old school” rhetoric is dysfunctional. Perhaps that is my problem. Do I really know what is meant by comp’s “return to its classical roots in the rhetorical notion of discursive arrangement”? I have an idea…but when linguistic sculptors drop utterances with such genratic register, organization sprays like streaming consciousness from a fire hose.
