      ab: An essay about the role of English professor Fred Newton Scott in the reform movement of the teaching of rhetorical theory and composition in the U.S. in the 1890s is presented. The author differentiates the term science used by Scott in a rhetoric course with the term techne, which refers to the methods developed by rhetoricians for winning arguments. He cites that Scott challenges the assertions of author Herbert Spencer that language is an impediment to thought. He discusses the coverage of the book "Paragraph Writing," by Scott and Joseph Denney.
