I think there is a difference between recognizing genius and recognizing different levels of artistic expression. And I don't think it can all be expressed in a rubric, not matter how well drafted.

But before I go into that further, may be I'm misunderstanding the extent to which you think rubrics can go. Can you point me to any rubrics that you think are particularly good? I don't know whether any professors post them on websites.

I'm wondering, for example, would a rubric include such things as using complex sentence structures (and if so, how complex)? What would a rubric do with some of Shakespeare's grammar, for example? Or Donne's? I adore much of Donne, but it can take me a while to unpack some of his grammar. Is that good writing, or bad? Can any rubric deal with it?
