One of the primary ways that conversation takes place in writing is when you quote other critics and views, bring them into your argument, and in some way work off them: come to terms, forward, counter, take an approach. Because this [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=comppost.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4388816&amp;post=1367&amp;subd=comppost&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We focus on counter-argument for the third writing project. Recall that &#8220;countering,&#8221; as Harris terms it, doesn&#8217;t mean simply letting &#8220;the other side&#8221; have a say or merely disagreeing with an opposing view. That may be how argument on cable television (unfortunately) works these days, but it isn&#8217;t what academic argument is about. Rather, countering [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=comppost.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4388816&amp;post=1344&amp;subd=comppost&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
