It argues that the process of rhetoric is one of discovery and experimentation, lacking in concrete structures or processes that can be quantified. It is more traditionally focused on the ''experience'' of writing, as opposed to the final product. Expressivism is often criticized for its failure to incorporate setting and context into the analysis of rhetorical works, though it can be argued that this is simply outside of Expressivism's goals. &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;en&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;wikipedia&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;org&lt;/del&gt;/&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;wiki&lt;/del&gt;/&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;James_A._Berlin&lt;/del&gt;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;The '''Expressivist''' theory of rhetoric and composition is that theory which, much as the name would suggest, emphasizes rhetoric and language as a tool for individual or personal messages rather than social ones.
