The Rhetorical Case: Its Roman Precedent and the Current Debate.
Mendelson, Michael
Journal of Technical Writing and Communication, v19 n3 p203-26 1989
Reviews a debate among Roman rhetoricians over declamation, an early case study method. Appraises contemporary concerns about the value of case study as a stimulant to problem-solving skills, its ability to imitate realistic circumstances of business and technical writing, and its emphasis on persona and audience along with its deemphasis of the teacher.
