COMMRC 3306 - SEM IN RHETORIC AND CULTURE

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course examines the role rhetoric plays in the formation of culture, reading some interdisciplinary texts (rhetorical, philosophical, historical, literary) which represent the intellectual elite of a specific time period. These texts will furnish us with an occasion to inquire into the ways in which intellectuals mobilize rhetoric to perpetuate or transform existing socio-political formations: the kinds of cultural self-understanding shaping their dis course and the kinds of spaces their discourse opens to their audiences. Topics vary.
