• W95069481 abstract "VADIMIR NABOKOV, my favorite twentieth-century author, was most self-reflexive of novelists: he would have been delighted with our present enterprise, a discussion in Forum for devoted subject of Forum for Honors. The questions we are attempting address, although they tend toward self-referential, are important. Our journal has grown, evolved, and developed into something different than admirable publication begun by Vishnu Bhatia and ably continued under direction of Scott Vaughn. It is timely pause, examine Forum has been and is today, and, most vitally, it should aim become in future. In suggesting this task me, current Editor asked that I consider what it is about education. This seemed me a reasonable task, until I began do it. At that moment I had two enfeebling thoughts. The first was that Bob's assignment carried implicit assumption that one knew it was write well about ANYTHING, and yet me at least, definition of solid scholarship is anything but clear. My second enervating epiphany was that there could be no better way appear foolish than poorly about what it is well. Proceeding with a caution approaching cowardice, then, I want discuss at some length two important characteristics of writing, about (or English, or Physics, or Economics, or what-have-you). I will introduce several illustrative examples, and make a special effort utilize also negative examples and contrary illustrations, designed make clear my ideas about some of pitfalls into which serious writers about honors have plunged or are most likely encounter. The characteristics I wish discuss are abstraction and Good scholarship is abstract. By this I suggest that it is generalized or generalizable; that it articulates insights, suggests actions, or makes propositions which are based upon thoughts and principles; and that it is, at least some extent, separable from a specific time and place. I need note, with unseemly haste, that abstract writing need and should not be Nor, as I will suggest further a bit later, should it be grounded in unsupported theorizing or mere opinion. It is abstract say exists, or good buildings are constructed last for a long time. It is vague say that the evidence which seems suggest that God does not exist, in one form or another, is not overwhelmingly persuasive. Somewhat more pointedly, it would be an admirable abstraction posit Honors students are politically more conservative than non-Honors students. I wish suggest a definition of abstract which opposes that term particular, not to concrete. To be specific, I do not believe that Forum for should remain a venue for articles which simply aim describe particular enterprises--programs, courses, budgets, recruitment schemes, or whatever. Such descriptions are not without interest workers, and I continue look forward seeing them in our organizational newsletter, but they do not really belong in a scholarly journal. Obviously specific illustrative examples should be cited in support of abstractions--that is I discuss under documentation. If an course is used as an illustration of a thesis about nature of honors courses, nothing could be more appropriate. But I believe our organization, and its journal, have grown beyond point where a major preoccupation should be exchange of straightforward descriptive data: here is we do at The University of Ex; now you tell me you do at Zee College. Good writing about cannot be just abstract, of course. There are some qualifications. I would suggest that sorts of abstractions about education I would like see in Forum would be: a) important, b) new, and c) interesting. …" @default.
