In Enthymemes and Topoi in Dialogue, Ellen Breitholtz presents a
novel and precise account of reasoning from an interactional
perspective. The account draws on the concepts of enthymemes and
topoi, originating in Aristotelian rhetoric and dialectic, and
integrates these in a formal dialogue semantic account using TTR, a
type theory with records. Argumentation analysis and formal
approaches to reasoning often focus the logical validity of
arguments on inferences made in discourse from a god's-eye
perspective. In contrast, Breitholtz's account emphasises the
individual perspectives of interlocutors and the function and
acceptability of their reasoning in context. This provides an
analysis of interactions where interlocutors have access to
different topoi and therefore make different inferences.
