Rhetoric of Blogging from HUMANIST

A recent request to the HUMANIST listserv for articles on the rhetoric of blogging resulted in quite a few responses. Here's a summary that may contain some useful "nuggets."

------------
1) "Into the Blogosphere: Rhetoric, Community, and Culture of Weblogs."
Collection of essays, blogs, etc.

2) Members of the Computers and Writing community

are studying the rhetoric of blogging as well as teaching with student
and faculty blogs.

4) "Blogging as Social Action: A Genre Analysis of the Weblog"

Carolyn R. Miller seems to have a focus on rhetoric in the digital
domain. See her publications list at:

5) Rhetoric as "a persuasive way in which one relates a theme or
idea in an effort to convince." (thanks Wikipedia) as relating to blogs, see

Research Weblogs"

7) Jill Walker, dissertation on blogging at the
University of Bergen, and her own weblog jill/txt is a treasure trove
of information. For example, in the category "blog theorising" --
