Bringing together 50 key readings on rhetorical criticism in a
single accessible format, "The Rhetorical Criticism Reader"
furnishes instructors with an ideal resource for teaching and
practicing the art of rhetorical criticism. Unlike existing readers
and textbooks, which rely on cookie-cutter approaches to rhetorical
criticism, "The Rhetorical Criticism Reader "organizes the field
conceptually, allowing teachers and students to grapple with the
enduring issues and debates surrounding criticism over the past 50
years.
The readings are organized into four sections, each representing
key conceptual issues and debates in rhetorical criticism:
critic/purpose, object/method, theory/practice, and
audience/consequentiality. Each section is preceded by an
introductory essay that puts the readings into context. For added
flexibility, an alternative table of contents is also included for
instructors and students to customize their teaching and
reading.
Intended for upper-division undergraduate and graduate courses
in rhetorical criticism, "The Rhetorical Criticism Reader "uniquely
lends itself to thoughtful discussion of the role of the critic in
the critical process. It assists readers not only in learning the
tools of criticism, but also in reflecting on the values that
underlie the critical endeavor.
