== Pedagogical Studies ==

More a movement than a single theory, these authors have examined the way we teach rhetoric, composition, and research. The pedagogical movements listed here draw heavily from the principles of cognitive rhetoric, calling for an in-depth study of the processes of writing and research. These pedagogical models all hold that the subject matter in question, be it composition, research, or rhetorical practices, can be taught, codified, and improved upon with careful practice and consideration. They further maintain that the basic survey courses offered (think Composition I) do not adequately convey the ''techne'' required to master the subject at hand.

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

== Semiotics ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiotics Semiotics]

Originally developed by Ferdinand de Saussure as a part of the framework for structural linguistics, Semiotics is the field of study devoted to [[wikipedia:Sign_(semiotics)|sign]] and communication. Semiotics holds that meaning is created and conveyed through linguistic sign. Related works examine the relationship between signified and signifier, how signs fit into larger works, and how signs influence and change the people that use them.

== Sophism ==

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

More a movement than a single theory, these authors have examined the way we teach rhetoric, composition, and research. The pedagogical movements listed here draw heavily from the principles of cognitive rhetoric, calling for an in-depth study of the processes of writing and research. These pedagogical models all hold that the subject matter in question, be it composition, research, or rhetorical practices, can be taught, codified, and improved upon with careful practice and consideration. They further maintain that the basic survey courses offered (think Composition I) do not adequately convey the ''techne'' required to master the subject at hand.

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

== Sophism ==

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

== Semiotics ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiotics Semiotics]

Originally developed by Ferdinand de Saussure as a part of the framework for structural linguistics, Semiotics is the field of study devoted to [[wikipedia:Sign_(semiotics)|sign]] and communication. Semiotics holds that meaning is created and conveyed through linguistic sign, and related works examine the relationship between signified and signifier, how signs fit into larger works, and how signs influence and change the people that use them.

[[Ferdinand de Saussure]], 1857-1913: [[signified and signifier are core of semiotics]]

[[Roland Barthes]], 1915-1980: author and scriptor, neutral and novelistic writing

[[Mikhail Bakhtin]], 1895-1975: [[Polyphony]], [[Unfinalizability]], [[Carnival and Grotesque]], [[Chronotope]], [[Heteroglossia]] ("The Dialogic Imagination"), [[Speech genres]]

== Sophism ==

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

[[Jim W. Corder]], 1929-1998: [[argument as emergence toward the other]]

== Semiotics ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiotics Semiotics]

Originally developed by Ferdinand de Saussure as a part of the framework for structural linguistics, Semiotics is the field of study devoted to [[wikipedia:Sign_(semiotics)|sign]] and communication. Semiotics holds that meaning is created and conveyed through linguistic sign, and related works examine the relationship between signified and signifier, how signs fit into larger works, and how signs influence and change the people that use them.

[[Ferdinand de Saussure]], 1857-1913: [[signified and signifier are core of semiotics]]

[[Roland Barthes]], 1915-1980: author and scriptor, neutral and novelistic writing

[[Mikhail Bakhtin]], 1895-1975: [[Polyphony]], [[Unfinalizability]], [[Carnival and Grotesque]], [[Chronotope]], [[Heteroglossia]] ("The Dialogic Imagination"), [[Speech genres]]

== Sophism ==

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

== Sophism ==

From Wikipedia, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophism "Sophism"]

"Sophism in the modern definition is a specious argument used for deceiving someone. In ancient Greece, sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching arete — excellence, or virtue — predominantly to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education and providing wisdom only to those who could pay led to the condemnations made by Socrates, through [[Plato]] in his Dialogues, as well as Xenophon's Memorabilia. Through works such as these, Sophists were portrayed as "specious" or "deceptive," hence the modern meaning of the term."

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogerian_argument Rogerian Argument]

Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

Rogerian rhetoric then, is the idea that persuasion is most effective when the positions on all side of the argument are understood, and a connection is made between the people involved. Terms such as non-combative and person-centered are some of the theory's watch-words.

Rogerian rhetoric typically consists of 4 main stages:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better (Brent)

== Rogerian Rhetoric ==
Rogerian rhetoric is derived from the theories of Carl Rogers. Rogers originally developed his ideas as a method of therapy that was centered around understanding the person being treated. Initially called non-directive therapy, this system became the foundation for Rogers' broader ideas of the self and learning. These ideas have been applied across disciplines, heavily influencing one branch of rhetorical studies.

The main tenets of Rogerian rhetoric include:
# An introduction to the problem and a demonstration that the opponent's position is understood.
# A statement of the contexts in which the opponent's position may be valid.
# A statement of the writer's position, including the contexts in which it is valid.
# A statement of how the opponent's position would benefit if he were to adopt elements of the writer's position. If the writer can show that the positions complement each other, that each supplies what the other lacks, so much the better

J.R. Zambrano: /* Additional Works/Publications */

== Biography ==
Stephen Toulmin (25 March 1922 - 4 December 2009) was an educator, philosopher, and author. A disciple of Ludwig Wittengenstein, he rejected the extremes of absolutism and relativism, arguing that neither has any kind of practical value. Toulmin examined ethics, moral reasoning, and science, and is perhaps best known for his system of argumentation analysis, which he postulated while developing practical argumentation as a response to absolutism and relativism.

Lunsford, Andrea and Lisa Ede "On Distinctions between Classical and Modern Rhetoric"

2012-02-16T07:49:25Z

J.R. Zambrano:

[[Andrea A. Lunsford]] and [[Lisa S. Ede]]

In “On Distinctions Between Classical and Modern Rhetoric,” Andrea Lunsford and Lisa Ede address the common distinctions made between classical rhetoric and modern rhetoric. However, the point of their essay is to demonstrate how similar classic and modern rhetoric are (398). Lunsford and Ede say that major distinctions made about classical rhetoric include that it was based on a rational being living in a socially cohesive society, focused on rational proofs (logos), based on one-way communication with a selected audience, and the overall goal was to persuade. While distinctions about modern rhetoric include that rhetoric is based on symbol-using men who live in a less cohesive society, there is a focus on the emotional proofs (pathos), there is understood two-way communication, and the overall goal is communication not persuasion (400).

Ede and Lunsford maintain that one of the sources for this emphasis comes from an imperfect understanding of the way in which Artistotle's Rhetoric fit in with the rest of his philosophical system. They argue for the contextualization of his ideas; "One of the most essential characteristics of Aristotle's philosophical system is its integration." They cite the relationship between dialectic and rhetoric as on of the key means towards understanding Aristotle's views on communication.

In arguing for an integration of Aristotle's ideas, they also lay the framework for how a "new" rhetoric might be conceptualized (fitting with their desire to break down some of the aforementioned distinctions), using one of Aristotle's more well-known concepts, the three pisteis, logos, ethos, and pathos. They should not be viewed as discrete elements that may dominate one aspect of rhetorical discussion, but rather "inseparable strands that link people engaged in discourse."

Lunsford and Ede continue to dissect Aristotle’s arguments throughout the essay to show the relationship between classic and modern rhetoric. For them, some similarities include that both classic and modern focus on uniting emotion with reason through argumentation, allow both the rhetor and audience access to knowledge, and use rhetoric in various fields (404). Overall, Lunsford and Ede are calling for rhetors and rhetoricians to realize how connected modern and classic are. They write, “ If rhetoric is to reach its full potential in the twentieth century as an informing framework …then we must define ourselves not in opposition to but in consonance with the classical model” (408).

Burke, Kenneth "Definition of Man"

2012-02-16T07:31:41Z

J.R. Zambrano: Added burke's ideas of symbolic reality as "road-map"

Definition of Man outlines Burke’s philosophical exploration of the essence of man--what makes humans human. He believes that we are fundamentally different from animals and in this essay he attempts to pinpoint exactly what it is that makes us different in nature from animals (he concedes that we are animals, but argues that our mode of being is essentially distinct from that of other animals).

He begins the essay describing the relationship between definition and meaning--Does definition inspire meaning or meaning, definition? His argument is that definition inspires meaning. Definition is “prior to the observations it summarizes” (Burke, 40). By pointing this out at the beginning of his essay, Burke emphasizes straightaway his belief in the power of language to shape reality.

Indeed, Burke posits that language represents much of what we call reality, saying that outside of the realm of personal experience, our conception of the world is but a symbolic representation enabled by language. Burke posits that it is the symbolicity of humanity, rooted in the verbal, that allows them to distinguish between the two, even. And we use the symbol-sets to navigate "reality," even as they screen us from the "non-verbal." He likens it to a road-map on a cross-continental trip, which is incredibly useful because it represents so little in terms of what actually will be experienced. Language itself can help us "find our way about," while at the same time language can lead to the kind of destruction mentioned above.

In the following sections of the essay, Burke develops the idea that language is prior to meaning in the context of his overall argument that language--symbolic communication--is what sets man apart from all other beings. Man’s ability to conceptualize and, more importantly, to know that he has conceptualized, to be capable of “thinking about thought,” is what makes him different from the wren who, by accident (according to Burke), discovered how to force her overgrown young from the nest but could not reflect on the fact that she had just done so.

In addition to being a philosophical exploration, Definition of Man serves as political and religious commentary. Burke’s assertion that humans are capable of higher thought and of contemplating the negative necessarily leads to religious questions. If humans are capable of higher thought, then what is higher thought, and where does it come from? And where does “nothing” come from? Burke argues that the existence of “yes” and “no,” of “something” and “nothing” make a strong argument for the existence of God and Devil. Definition of Man is political commentary in that Burke attempts to answer questions about why we make war. His short poem at the end and various comments throughout the essay demonstrate is disgust and awe at the possibility of nuclear war.

In “Definition of Man,” [[Kenneth Burke]] takes a fairly dark view of human beings and their use of language. He defines man, using five clauses, as “Man is a symbol-using (symbol-making, symbol-misusing) animal/ inventor of the negative (or moralized by the negative)/ separated from his natural condition by instruments of his own making/ goaded by the spirit of hierarchy (or moved by the sense of order)/ and rotten with perfection” (53-54). At the beginning, Burke clearly states that his definition is subject to debate and modification. Burke asserts that our symbols-systems are what allow humans to survive and innovate; however, these same systems can also lead to destruction, thus introducing a duality of symbols or language, a main theme in this article. Continuing with the idea of duality, Burke introduces the clause regarding humans as the inventor of the negative, as he claims that nothing in nature is negative and that the negative was constructed by the symbol-systems. He continues to reference language used in the discussion of morality, i.e. the “Thou shall-not.” He believes in stating this negative phrase brings both positive and negative ideas. Then, Burke argues that our symbol-systems construct social networks and norms, etc., that separate us from our natural instincts; in other words, we regard natural occurrences or “things” as negative as a result of language. Furthermore, when he says “rotten with perfection,” Burke does not mean that humans are perfect. He means that humans strive to fulfill their perfect, already formulated ideas. This can lead to political scapegoating and a number of other sad occurrences.
