Rhetoric, Power and Community: An Exercise in Reserve (Studies in Religion and Literature) - Softcover
Synopsis
Rhetoric has returned vigorously to the agenda of a number of academic disciplines. Aristotle defended the art of rhetoric, while Plato was suspicious of its manipulative power to persuade. This study examines rhetoric in the context of different kinds of religious texts, from sacred scripture to liturgy to contemporary and postmodern writing and religion.
