Henze Featured in Keywords in Technical and Professional Communication

Dr. Brent Henze’s chapter on Genre appears in the recently published edited collection Keywords in Technical and Professional Communication (WAC Clearinghouse).Written by experts who have published extensively on the concepts underlying each keyword, each essay provides a history and/or a summary of the changing contemporary and disciplinary contexts in which the keyword has been used, discusses the debates surrounding the term, considers the critical lenses shaping our understanding of it, and discusses how the term could be used in the future and/or whether it needs to be rethought in our current environment.
