Rezensionen

Modern Rhetorical Criticism takes a fresh approach to the time-honored study of rhetorical criticism, merging the study of rhetorical tradition and change. The 4th edition provides breadth and concision, covering critical perspectives from the wide-angle (focus on culture) to the microscopic (focus on words) in an engaging and accessible style.
