Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2005.

This dissertation theorizes the aims of education, specifically English Studies and Composition, in relation to a contemporary cultural landscape saturated with discourses of fear and isolationism. Moreover, it forwards that our current cultural moment is best viewed as a socio-spatial (i.e., an examination of social relationships with regard to materiality, space, place, and history) psycho geographic existence where perverse individualism has supplanted utopian hopes and possibilities for sustainable and socially just communities. In this dissertation I forward pedagogies and curriculum for interrupting these discourses replete with their attendant ideological and physical strictures. Through critical rhetorical and textual analysis of experience and artifacts from a community college Composition class, I posit a "new rationality"---one that is contingent, dependent even, on affect, sensation, and the radical blurring of academic, workplace, and civic delineations. My conclusions are framed by a mandate that necessitates a reengagement of democratic aims of education, meaning a commitment to utopian discourses grounded in the conjunctural present, with the specific aim of replacing discourses of fear and isolationism with a new metaphor and allegory of hopeful lived, spoken, and written rhetorics.
