Kuypers, King, and their contributors explore the conception of
rhetoric of eleven key American rhetoricians through analyses of
their life's work. Each chapter provides a sense of that scholar's
conception of rhetoric, be it through criticism, theory, or
teaching. The communication discipline often highlights the work of
others outside the discipline; however, it rarely acclaims the work
of its own critics, teachers, and theorists. In this collection,
the essays explore the innate mode of perception that guided the
rhetorical understanding of the early critics. In so doing, this
work dispels the myth that the discipline of Speech Communication
was spawned from a monolithic and rigid center that came to be
called neo-Aristotelianism. Scholars and researchers involved with
the history of rhetoric, rhetorical criticism and theory, and
American public address uill find this title to be a necessary
addition to their collection.
