Profile from Dylan B. Dryer's University of Maine Profile

My home-base is in Rhetorical Genre Studies (RGS), which is a theoretical framework to investigate the ways in which recurrent textual forms reflect and sustain larger social structures through “uptake” — the exceptionally complex historically, culturally, cognitively and linguistically shaped moments of reader/writer/genre interface. (For an accessible overview of RGS, see my introduction to Composition Forum Vol. 31, a Special Issue on emergent trends in this field.) From RGS, my work extends into corpus analysis, writing pedagogy and program administration, cognition, writing assessment and teacher-training, and the documentary society of land-use management.
