    Abstract

    A history and analysis of the uses of the term post-process in rhetoric and composition. Whicker presents a taxonomy of the ways post-process has been used in composition, critiques the term as a confuscation in all but the strongest applications, and critiques the tendency to construct narratives of change that involve ambiguous metaphors designed as a questionable power-move to discredit past scholarship in order to forward new theoretical perspectives.
