Regionalism is a term that has been used to describe many different
kinds of phenomena, including political, geographical,
architectural, and literary. This collection examines "rhetorical
regionalism," or the relationships we have to physical regions and
the idea of regionality. Regional rhetorics are more than simply
the fact of local conditions in certain spaces. They are the ways
people produce feelings of belonging and discourses of normalcy
within those spaces. The authors in this collection bypass familiar
narratives of nationality and localism in order to imagine regions
as interfaces that help us to negotiate everyday life. Regions are
more than physical spaces, therefore. Regional rhetorics can
provide different narratives in order to help us invent new kinds
of connections to place and publics. They give us new descriptions
of relationships, a power that merges together the tectonic
(spatial) and the architectonic (discursive) impulses of rhetoric.
The book was originally published as a special issue of Rhetoric
Society Quarterly.
