An outgrowth of the recent meeting of the International Society of
the History of Rhetoric, this collection challenges the reader to
reexamine the broad influence of 18th- and 19th-century Scottish
rhetoric, often credited for shaping present-day studies in
psychology, philosophy, literary criticism, oral communication,
English literature, and composition. The contributors examine its
influence and call for a new appraisal of its importance in light
of recent scholarship and archival research. Many of the essays in
the first section discuss the contributions of recognized
influential figures including Adam Smith and Hugh Blair. Other
essays focus on the importance of 18th-century Scottish sermons in
relation to public discourse, audience analysis, peer evaluation,
and professional rhetoric. Essays in the second section address
19th-century rhetorical theory and its influence on North American
composition practice.
