In a profound revelation of what truly undergirds modern political
rhetoric, Morgan Marietta shows that the language of America's
leaders often relies on deep, even sacred, ideals. The Politics of
Sacred Rhetoric is a comprehensive and detailed survey of the
rhetorical tactics employed even among the highest government
offices as tools of political persuasion. Through careful analysis
of the use of absolutist claims-and appeals to what a speaker deems
to be universal truths-Marietta uncovers the sometimes subtle ways
in which politicians employ this "sacred rhetoric" and demonstrates
its impact on citizens' reasoning, public discourse, and the very
nature of American democracy.
