Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Rhetorics of Display is a pathbreaking volume that brings together a distinguished group of scholars to assess an increasingly pervasive form of rhetorical activity. Editor Lawrence J. Prelli notes in his introduction that twenty-first century citizens continually confront displays of information and images, from the verbal images of speeches and literature to visual images of film and photography to exhibits in museums to the arrangement of our homes to the merchandising of consumer goods.

Surveying major historical transformations in the relationship between rhetoric and display, this book also identifies the leading themes in relevant scholarship of the past three decades. Seventeen case studies canvass a representative and diverse range of displays - from body piercing to a civil rights memorial to a Titanic exhibition to imagery found in gambling casinos - and examine the ways that phenomena, persons, places, events, identities, communities, and cultures are exhibited before audiences.
