This is a work of thinly disguised (or sometimes entirely undisguised) nonfiction, written as a dialogue. Usually these dialogues feature a Mr. Exposition, who either explains the topic to The Watson or debates it with a Straw Loser. In either case, Mr. Exposition's partner is supposed to be bringing up the objections or points of confusion that the reader might have. Compare Right Way/Wrong Way Pair, where a Straw Loser shows what not to do, but doesn't always have dialogue with their "right way" counterpart.

Xanthippic Dialogues is a bunch of instructional dialogues on, mostly, philosophy of dialogue (as in ethics, not rhetoric). It also pretends to be a lost text from V century b.c. and is quite funny. | |

Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid starts each chapter with a dialogue like this, between Achilles (The Watson) and the Tortoise (Mr. Exposition). They're modeled on a similar dialogue, "What the Tortoise Said to Achilles", written by Lewis Carroll (in which Achilles is more of a Straw Loser, though he comes round in the end). | |
