- W187584999 abstract "During the winter term of 1999, we designed and taught a first-year writing course that utilized DorothyAllison's BastardOut ofCarolinaas the primary text for both discussion and writing assignments. Our goal was to create a curriculum that challenged students to think critically about how personal stories are told, how complex issues are represented, and how compelling lives are mediated through the process ofwriting about dramatic, traumatic, and transformative experiences. As compositionists, we wanted students to see how a master writer explores difficult issues through narration and exposition and how, in the process ofwriting, the writer comes to empowering insights about herself, the nature offamily, and the construction of identities in the interaction between the two. As queercompositionists, our choice ofAllison's text arose out ofa more complex set ofmotivations. Specifically, we were keen to introduce students to Allison's particularly queer take on the southern, white, working-class American family, and we wanted to provoke students to consider more critically the diversity of experiences and lives often contained and constrainedwithin the phantasmatic cohesion ofthe family as a social construct. Critical energy for such a proj ect came from both our commitmentto thinking ofthe teaching ofwriting as a socialprocess and from our interests in queer theory and its critiques ofidentities. As such, we attempted simultaneously to blend rhetorical and political goals, believing that it is better to acknowledge and grapple with the political within the pedagogical than risk teaching from unaware and uniformed ideological biases. Interestingly, most students seemed to respond well to what we were doing, and manybecame deeply engaged with Allison's text and with the critiques we were proposing. Their excitement enhanced our own, and added to it a sense of the forbidden or the transgressive, for we were" @default.
