Download or read book Digital Rhetoric written by Douglas Eyman and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is “digital rhetoric”? This book aims to answer that question by looking at a number of interrelated histories, as well as evaluating a wide range of methods and practices from fields in the humanities, social sciences, and information sciences to determine what might constitute the work and the world of digital rhetoric. The advent of digital and networked communication technologies prompts renewed interest in basic questions such as What counts as a text? and Can traditional rhetoric operate in digital spheres or will it need to be revised? Or will we need to invent new rhetorical practices altogether? Through examples and consideration of digital rhetoric theories, methods for both researching and making in digital rhetoric fields, and examples of digital rhetoric pedagogy, scholarship, and public performance, this book delivers a broad overview of digital rhetoric. In addition, Douglas Eyman provides historical context by investigating the histories and boundaries that arise from mapping this emerging field and by focusing on the theories that have been taken up and revised by digital rhetoric scholars and practitioners. Both traditional and new methods are examined for the tools they provide that can be used to both study digital rhetoric and to potentially make new forms that draw on digital rhetoric for their persuasive power.
Book Synopsis The Ends of Rhetoric by : John B. Bender
Download or read book The Ends of Rhetoric written by John B. Bender and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discipline of rhetoric - adapted through a wide range of reformulations to the specific requirements of Greek, Roman, Medieval, and Renaissance societies - dominated European education and discourse, whether public or private, for more than two thousand years. The end of classical rhetoric's domination was brought about by a combination of social and cultural transformations that occured between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. Concurrent with the 'theory boom' of recent decades, rhetoric has appeared as a center of discussion in the humanities and social sciences. Rhetorical inquiry, as it is thought and practiced today, occurs in an interdisciplinary matrix that touches on philosophy, linguistics, communication studies, psychoanalysis, cognitive science, sociology, anthropology, and political theory. Rhetoric is now an area of study without accepted certainties, a territory not yet parceled into topical subdivisions, a mode of discourse that adheres to no fixed protocols. It is a noisy field in the cybernetic sense of the term: a fertile ground for creative innovation. This volume embodies the interdisciplinary character of rhetoric. The essays draw on wide-ranging conceptual resources, and combine historical, theoretical, and practical points of view. The contributors develop a variety of perspectives on the central concepts of rhetorical theory, on the work of some of its major proponents, and on the breaks and continuities of its history. The spectrum of thematic concern is broad, extending from the Greek polis to the multi-ethnic city of modern America, from Aristotle to poststructuralism, from questions of figural language to problems of persuasion and interaction. But a common interdisciplinary interest runs through all the essays: the effort to rethink rhetoric within the contemporary epistemological situation. In this sense, the book opens new possibilities for research within the human sciences.

Download or read book Practical Rhetoric (Classic Reprint) written by John Duncan Quackenbos and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Rhetoric Herbert spencer, in his Essay on the Philosophy of Style, 'observes that the maxims contained in works on composition and rhetoric are presented in an unorganized form, and proceeds to sys temize the scattered precepts under one leading principle, economy. But economy, while accounting for a large number of rhetorical phe nomena, fails to explain many procedures. This treatise attempts an answer to the question, Is further generalization possible? By deriving all rhetorical law from that principle of beauty known as harmony, or adaptation, - a principle which includes economy, as well as order, unity in variety, and proportion. It is believed that, if the learner at the outset can be made to comprehend this principle in its multitudinous lines of control, the explanation, through it, of the laws of literary diction and style, will acquire a novel and delight ful simplicity. During his twenty years' experience as a teacher of English Composition in the Rhetorical Department at Columbia Col lege, the author has always found that an understanding of reasons, of the wherefore of the rule, inspires the pupil with interest, and sharpens the receptive and the retentive faculties. What is memo rized as a desultory precept is generally left in the class room for exclusive application there; but what is apprehended as the expres sion of a universal and necessary law is made a part of the student's daily thought and practice. When the learner comes to realize that the primal principle of harmony satisfactorily accounts for the rhe torical laws that are unfolded in the successive lessons, he is on the watch, with the opening of each new topic, for a new application of his governing principle; and thus is kept on tension his interest in the philosophical development of the subject to the very last page. Throughout the instruction that follows, it is sought to treat the pupil as an intelligent creator of literature: hence, while the sub ject is introduced by a discussion of the great aesthetic truths that.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

This book helps you understand the key concepts of rhetoric. It gives clear explanations, stripped of jargon, and examples of rhetorical technique in the plays. It also provides engaging, practical exercises to unlock character and to identify themes in the plays through the lens of rhetoric. Academically rigorous, based on more than a decade of practical experience in the use of rhetoric in drama at the highest level, it is an ideal companion for anyone engaging with Shakespeare in performance.

Book Synopsis A New Handbook of Rhetoric by : Michele Kennerly
Download or read book A New Handbook of Rhetoric written by Michele Kennerly and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like every discipline, Rhetorical Studies relies on a technical vocabulary to convey specialized concepts, but few disciplines rely so deeply on a set of terms developed so long ago. Pathos, kairos, doxa, topos—these and others originate from the so-called classical world, which has conferred on them excessive authority. Without jettisoning these rhetorical terms altogether, this handbook addresses critiques of their ongoing relevance, explanatory power, and exclusionary effects. A New Handbook of Rhetoric inverts the terms of classical rhetoric by applying to them the alpha privative, a prefix that expresses absence. Adding the prefix α- to more than a dozen of the most important terms in the field, the contributors to this volume build a new vocabulary for rhetorical inquiry. Essays on apathy, akairos, adoxa, and atopos, among others, explore long-standing disciplinary habits, reveal the denials and privileges inherent in traditional rhetorical inquiry, and theorize new problems and methods. Using this vocabulary in an analysis of current politics, media, and technology, the essays illuminate aspects of contemporary culture that traditional rhetorical theory often overlooks. Innovative and groundbreaking, A New Handbook of Rhetoric at once draws on and unsettles ancient Greek rhetorical terms, opening new avenues for studying values, norms, and phenomena often stymied by the tradition. In addition to the editor, the contributors include Caddie Alford, Benjamin Firgens, Cory Geraths, Anthony J. Irizarry, Mari Lee Mifsud, John Muckelbauer, Bess R. H. Myers, Damien Smith Pfister, Nathaniel A. Rivers, and Alessandra Von Burg.
