Rhetoric
Author: Michael HawcroftPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 9780198159841
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
'Hawcroft provides some remarkable insights.' -Michael Moriarty, TLS'Hawcroft's analyses are wide-ranging, perceptive and skilful. He wants to demonstrate, and has admirably demonstrated, the survival of rhetoric.' -Michael Moriarty, TLSRhetoric is the art of persuasion, whether spoken or written. The first chapter of this book sets out its principles comprehensively and lucidly, with a wide range of illustrative examples. Subsequent chapters explore rhetoric at work in different genres, via close reading of texts which range from the drama of Racine and Beckett; Montaigne, Sévigné and Gide on the self; Zola and Sarraute's prose fiction; poetry by D'Aubigné, Baudelaire, and Césaire; and the oratory of de Gaulle and Yourcenar. This is both a rhetorical handbook and an illustration of critical practice.
