Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2017.

This dissertation examines the ethical, embodied author in the field of composition and rhetoric and how individual authorship and agency might be located within a network. As digital media has increasingly led us to consider rhetorical agency within complex systems, one of the central issues that has emerged in the field is a need for a better sense of networked agency; an agency that recovers rhetorical agency without reverting to autonomous, liberal subject models. Further, new media texts ask us to consider the relationship between authorship, agency and ethics. Networked theories of agency and ecological theories of writing understand agency as non-autonomous, continuously shifting, arising from interactions, and derived from constraints. We have therefore gotten to a place in our theories of agency where we find it difficult to explain the individual capacity for responsibility and social change. To this end, I examine authorship using Bruno Latour's Actor Network Theory and propose that it is in our ability to make ethical judgments in which we locate agency as writers. My goal is to reconcile the author as an ethical actor within a networked theory of agency, recuperating the idea of an embodied author that allows us to discuss intention and responsibility fully within a network. I argue that digital media draws attention to its own production and delivery, which in turn asks us to reveal the role of human actors in seemingly automated processes; what makes digital work "digital" is this self-referential aspect. To be a fully realized author in this context is also to be fully engaged with the technology and its rhetorical, networked properties. I discuss how the users of Design Lab are rhetorically aware of their positions within citational chains, knowing that they have boundless access to texts, but that they also have boundless access to actants and their traces. To follow these traces, is where, I argue, is where we should be focused when we consider the work that writers do.
