Increasingly, rhetorical scholars are using fieldwork and other
ethnographic, performance, and qualitative methods to access,
document, and analyze forms of everyday in situ rhetoric rather
than using already documented texts. In this book, the authors
argue that participatory critical rhetoric, as an approach to in
situ rhetoric, is a theoretically, methodologically, and
praxiologically robust approach to critical rhetorical studies.
This book addresses how participatory critical rhetoric furthers
understanding of the significant role that rhetoric plays in
everyday life through expanding the archive of rhetorical practices
and texts, emplacing rhetorical critics in direct conversation with
rhetors and audiences at the moment of rhetorical invention, and
highlighting marginalized voices that might otherwise go unnoticed.
This book organizes the theoretical and methodological foundations
of participatory critical rhetoric through four vectors that
enhance conventional rhetorical approaches: 1) the political
commitments of the critic; 2) rhetorical reflexivity and the role
of the embodied critic; 3) emplaced rhetoric and the interplay
between the field, text, and context; and 4) multiperspectival
judgment that is informed by direct participation with rhetors and
audiences. In addition to laying the groundwork and advocating for
the approach, Participatory Critical Rhetoric also offers
significant contributions to rhetorical theory and criticism more
broadly by revisiting the field's understanding of core topics such
as role of the critic, text/context, audience, rhetorical effect,
and the purpose of criticism. Further, it enhances theoretical
conversations about material rhetoric, place/space, affect,
intersectional rhetoric, embodiment, and rhetorical reflexivity.
