George Kalamaras is Assistant Professor of English and Associate Director of Writing at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne. His articles on composition have appeared in Composition Studies and English Education. He has also published two collections of poetry, Heart Without End and Beneath the Breath, and is the recipient of a 1993 Creative Writing Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts. For several years he has been a practitioner, in the Hindu tradition, of both Raja and Hatha Yoga.

"A thoughtful treatment of a surprisingly important subject."—Peter Elbow, University of Massachusetts"Kalamaras's thesis is an important one, especially at this time. He addresses a blind spot in current speculation by authenticating silence as a mode of knowing. Our thinking has been so impressed with the inevitability of language and the problem of linguistic recursion (how can language describe itself) that even the possibility of non-representational knowledge has been forgotten. Kalamaras's brilliant strategy is to address the matter in terms not of theory but of practice, specifically the practice of pedagogy. Reclaiming the Tacit Dimension begins a sensitive investigation into questions of actual pedagogical practice in relation to a rich and powerful theoretical context." —Don Byrd, State University of New York at Albany
