Democratic Disunity : Rhetorical Tribalism in 2020
Democratic Disunity: Rhetorical Tribalism in 2020 addresses that while attention has recently and rightly been paid to the tribal bifurcation of the GOP, the Democratic Party is similarly divided.Americans live in a democratic republic rather than a direct democracy and choices regarding governing concerns are configured through communicative action.These choices include those made between and within American political parties.Without rhetorical mediation and intervention, toxic partisan tribalism within the two major American political parties is likely to destabilize the nations’ federalist system of government.Kelley argues that intraparty tribalism poisons public life and consumes public space within which electoral politics, including discussion, deliberation and compromise, should be thriving.Democratic Disunity considers intraparty tribalism as a rhetorical form, uniquely positioned within the twenty-first century.Details are provided regarding language-in-use strategies with which to anchor a rhetoric of governing through a mindful, deliberative dialogue which diminishes the effect of political partisanship, including its toxic variations both between and within American political parties.Scholars and students of rhetoric, political communication, and political science will find this book particularly interesting.

The Poet Lucan : Studies in Rhetorical Epic
Lucan's epic on the Civil War has dodged in and out of fashion.Widely admired in the 17th and 18th centuries, it came in the 19th and 20th to be criticised by comparison with Virgil's Aeneid.The latter was established as the standard by which all other epic poets fail.Lucan's besetting "fault" was seen as his reliance on rhetoric.This work sets out to consider the rules of ancient rhetoric as learned by Lucan and applied in his epic.Four themes commmon to poetry and to the declamatory schools (tyranny, storms, the occult and dreams) are closely analyzed in relation to the poem, and the poem is itself set in the context of the Neronian age.

Queer Silence : On Disability and Rhetorical Absence
Championing the liberatory potential of silence to address the fraught disability politics of queernessIn queer culture, silence has been equated with voicelessness, complicity, and even death.Queer Silence insists, however, that silence can be a generative and empowering mode of survival.Triangulating insights from queer studies, disability studies, and rhetorical studies, J.Logan Smilges explores what silence can mean for people whose bodyminds signify more powerfully than their words. Queer Silence begins by historicizing silence’s negative reputation, beginning with the ways homophile activists rejected medical models pathologizing homosexuality as a disability, resulting in the silencing of disability itself.This silencing was redoubled by HIV/AIDS activism’s demand for “out, loud, and proud” rhetorical activities that saw silence as capitulation. Reading a range of cultural artifacts whose relative silence has failed to attract queer attachment, from anonymous profiles on Grindr to ex-gays to belated gender transitions to disability performance art, Smilges argues for silence’s critical role in serving the needs of queers who are never named as such.Queer Silence urges queer activists and queer studies scholars to reconcile with their own ableism by acknowledging the liberatory potential of silence, a mode of engagement that disattached queers use every day for resistance, sociality, and survival.
