註釋Fred Newton Scott, a gifted educator and theorist, spent his life working to improve educational instruction at all levels, and dramatically broadened the scope of studies in rhetoric with his imaginative and interdisciplinary research. He was at once a pragmatic reformer, describing to secondary school teachers how to base composition instruction on the student's own experience, and a visionary scholar who used empirical methods and cognitive psychology to expand the study of rhetoric. In The Life and Legacy of Fred Newton Scott, the authors combine their expertise in rhetoric studies with extensive research on Scott. Beginning in 1980, Donald Stewart corresponded with Scott's descendants and studied Scott's long-forgotten essays, speeches, and books in order to write a complete account of his rich scholarly life.
