About this title

Synopsis

Rather than focusing on the scripture's complex origins and historicity, the author asks what is has to say about civic engagement, political theory, and a virtuous life for readers today.

About the Author

David Charles Gore (PhD, Texas A&M University) is associate professor and department head in the Department of Communication at the University of Minnesota in Duluth. Gore regularly teaches courses on the history and theory of rhetoric, including its application to globalization and Stoic philosophy. His research explores the age-old trio of rhetoric, politics, and theology in order to illuminate the communi-cative ethics found in their interrelationships. By engaging politics and religion and faith and reason, Gore's scholarship addresses why building strong communities and strong commitments to the sacred remain relevant in a secular age. His work has appeared in Philosophy & Rhetoric, Argumen-tation & Advocacy, Dialogue: a Journal of Mormon Thought, and a variety of other venues.
