Where Did College English Studies Come From?
Miller, Thomas P.
Rhetoric Review, v9 n1 p50-69 Fall 1990
Traces the early development of college English instruction. Argues that the discipline appeared in 1662, a century earlier than previously believed. Identifies the Dissenters and Scots in Great Britain and America as among the earliest college English teachers. Suggests that only by understanding where English instruction originated can its future be envisioned. (SG)
