My qualifying examination reading list

Posted onAuthorBrian Larson2 Comments

These are the books and collections I must demonstrate expertise in for my PhD exams.
In some cases, I’m only responsible for a few chapters.
There are also dozens of articles, but they are in PDF form on my iPad.

 

(Updated Aug 19 to add picture and correct typos!) Below is the bibliography of the 150 or so books, book chapters, and articles I’m studying for my PhD qualifying exams in spring 2013. I need to pass these exams to be permitted to write my dissertation. The texts are actually divided into four groups, based on the faculty members who will be writing the question and reading my answer for each group: Rhetorical theory (Dr. Berkenkotter); scientific and technical communication (Dr. Breuch); law, language, logic (my specialty; Dr. Schuster); and computational methods (Dr. Pakhomov).

There are two items yet to be worked out, one a selection from Brooks and Gewirtz (for the law, language, logic list), the other a selection on the cognitive status of categories such as text genres (for the rhetorical theory list).
