| Abstract | Recently, several composition scholars have engaged in apocalyptic rhetoric, although they distance themselves from versions of it that advocate critical pedagogy. Bruno Latour's theories help expose such pedagogy's limitations while also offering a perspective on teacher-student relationships that can more realistically and sensitively work toward allaying potential disaster. Latour's work is particularly apt for the apocalyptic moment in composition. Since at least "We Have Never Been Modern" (English trans. 1993), Latour has made it his project to think otherwise than (not to say "outside of") the logic of Plato's cave. Latour's work also offers a post-critical take on thinking and writing about matters of public concern. The author argues that Latour's writing can help individuals articulate a way to move composition past the apocalyptic logic of critique and closer to an apocalyptic turn toward responsibility.
