Pedagogical Opportunities of the Review Genre unleashes the pedagogical potential of the review genre, reframing the act of reviewing of cultural products as a communicative practice from a pedagogical perspective. Negotiating between traditions of journalism and media studies and pedagogy, the author presents a novel approach that will increase the readers’ understanding of an activity that is on the increase in an era where 'everyone can be a critic'. She identifies, describes, and develops genre-based pedagogies in formal, non-formal, and informal contexts of learning and teaching, in order to recontextualize the review as a form of learning and rethink of its potential as an inclusive, engaging, and a transformative critical cultural practice. This innovative and truly interdisciplinary study will interest students and researchers in the areas of media literacy, digital media, media and communication studies, cultural studies, sociology of arts, and pedagogical studies – in particular, cultural journalism and criticism, audience studies, cultural production, and cultural mediation, as well as critical media pedagogy and literacy studies.

Praise for this book This is much anticipated book that investigates a less explored area of rhetoric and writing in a non-Western and indigenous context. Well-crafted arguments from Dr. Marohang Limbu’s comprehensive research help build a strong and compelling case to study indigenous identities from a thought-provoking perspective. – Yowei Kang, PhD, Assistant Professor National Taiwan Ocean University, Taiwan This is an important and ambitious work that crosses linguistic, cultural, and geographic boundaries. In doing this transdisciplinary scholarship, Limbu is making key contributions to indigenous and scholarly communities. In bridging these areas, his scholarship informs work in writing and language studies, cultural rhetorics, and globalization. – Steven Fraiberg, PhD, Associate Professor Michigan State University, USA The book, based on the fieldwork in four countries (Nepal, India, UK, and USA) across four continents, on the development of Sirijanga script and Limbu culture and history promises to bring deep insights, relying on oral history, archival and archeological research, and interviews, on how culture and traditions of an indigenous people survived inhospitable political regimes in Nepal and India, and how the community and network of activists across contingents are working to preserve and expand it after the advent of open political regimes in South Asia. – Mahendra Lawoti, PhD, Professor Western Michigan University, USA Limbu’s groundbreaking book informs indigenous rhetorics and provides a new methodology for ethnohistorical research. Scholars looking to understand how to ground their research in indigenous contexts can employ his “delinking, relinking and linking” methodology to connect with various populations. Limbu’s historical uncovering of Himalayan Yakthung writing traditions, oral history, and culture makes the case that global digital communities can help span local, regional, and transnational contexts and inform indigenous rhetorics in surprising new ways. – Gustav Verhulsdonck, PhD, Assistant Professor Central Michigan University, USA Marohang Limbu has done a superb job at canvassing his own delinking, relinking, and linking theory in Yakthung’s writing, rhetoric, and customary traditions, and this book adds a milestone and becomes invaluable asset in the history of Yakthung writing and rhetorics. – Ambar J. Limbu, Associate Professor Tribhuvan University, Nepal This book is an extremely rich, immensely persuasive, and utterly compelling piece of substantive Yakthung writing and rhetoric documentation, including analyses and interpretations. It demonstrates the immense power of Marohang’s delinking, relinking, and linking theory in the context of the 21st century both in academic and popular cultures. – Govinda B. Tumbahang, PhD, Former Governor Region No. 1, Nepal Marohang Limbu has explored Yakthung Indigenous historical cultural artifacts, oral texts, and documents and analyzed and interpreted the way they have never been done until the 21st century. This book will contribute a lot and will add a milestone in the history of Himalayan Yakthung Indigenous studies. – Arjun Limbu, Associate Professor Limbuwan Study Center, Nepal Marohang Limbu’s book is judicious, informed, and incisive, inviting the enthusiast into a serious of critical engagement with even the most difficult selections while avoiding the simplistic categories that mar too many anthologies. In this book, Limbu makes compelling arguments on the exploration, interpretation, and documentation of Himalayan Indigenous writing and rhetorics ever anybody has done to the ground reality.
