This class seems to explore the differences between academic criticism and professional criticism and argues that rhetorical criticism advances typical critical discussions.

*Arthur Walzer's Rhetoric 8510: Topics on Rhetorical Theory, History, and Criticism. This class mostly explores the role of rhetoric in making moral decisions.

Has postmodern thought destroyed the humanist subject? How do we construct rhetorical theory? How has media and science/technology influenced rhetorical thought and practice? What is the relationship between rhetorical theory and writing pedagogy?" Also has links to a syllabus and assignments page.
