Hi. I’m Mike Duncan, an Assistant Professor of English at the University of Houston-Downtown. My Ph.D. is in Composition Studies (called Rhetoric and Composition elsewhere) from the University of Memphis, though I also teach courses in PW (Professional Writing).
Upon reading this blog, you will quickly discover my two main academic interests are stylistics and Early Christian rhetoric, although I should probably throw a few other things into that pile, such as professional writing, history and theory of rhetoric (classical, mostly), argumentation theory, historiography, editing, grammar, genre theory, citation systems, and manual design. I don’t restrict this blog to any specific subject, though; I may prattle on about old PC games, films, books, or my pets for weeks at a time.
To email me, take ‘mikeduncan’ and combine it with ‘badrhetoric.com’.
