Abstract:
This research studies Egypt in a selected sample of poems of modern Sudanese poetry. The study used the textual method to analyze stylistic and technical aspects of the poems chosen for this study. Sudanese poets have different views of Egypt based on their culture and psychological makeup and literary approach. Some poets had a simple vision despite their elevated diction, artificial rhetoric, and lifeless pathos; others had a more complex vision especially those who saw in Egypt the central state, with its science, history and civilization, and the ability to move the Arabs to wider horizons. The conservative poets relied heavily on stylistics and symbolic language expressions and intensified their structural formulations to meet the public’s tastes for clamor. Some used modern techniques like the narration, storytelling, and the internal monologue to express their visions. It was found that most texts analyzed in this study used the Khalili prosodics with the exception of a few new direction poets who used free verse to express themselves with smooth musicality without barriers as long as their poetry was fueled with profound passion, proper conscience, and a sense of simplicity. The Sudanese poet did not get rid of his old presentation of the image considering it a means for explanation, clarification, and extreme exaggeration. The image, therefore, appeared to be sensual and largely an imitation of ancient types. This, however, does not prevent the emergence of new forms.

Abstract:
Novels and stories, which are types of prose in literature, deal with the social, individual and psychological events experienced by individuals and society from different aspects. Thus, a topic or event is conveyed in a more exciting, emotional, dramatic and literary way by making the heroes talk and is presented to the appreciation of the readers. As it is known, the most dramatic social event of the 20th century was the massacre of Palestinians, their exile from their homeland and their becoming refugees. To this day, the oppression and persecution of a small number of people who have not left their homeland has continued, and the killing of a few Palestinians every week has become an ordinary event. The few Palestinians living in difficult conditions in their homeland have been brutally murdered in front of the world since October 7, 2023. One of the Arab writers of the 20th century who saw and experienced these troubles before and devoted his art to the Palestinian cause is Ghassan Kenefani. He wrote works in the field of novels, stories and theater and expressed in a literary way the troubles, pain, despair he experienced during the occupation of his homeland and the exile of his people, the sadness of living away from the homeland, and the ways of returning there again. He is one of the rare literary figures who concentrated his art in this field. Again, he encouraged his people with his works and ideas and tried to motivate them to defend the homeland and return to his country. The author chose most of the subjects he discussed in his works from real life. In the study, first of all, attention will be drawn to the life, works and literary aspects of Gassân Kenefânî. At this point, some topics and events that Kenefânî deals with will be touched upon, and the general characteristics of some of the characters in his novels, the subject of time and place, and narrative techniques will be included. Then, his language and literary style will be examined, especially based on some of the novels and stories he wrote. While doing this, some of the similes, descriptions and symbols he used in his novels and stories, as well as some sentences with literary characteristics, will be presented to the attention of the scientific and literary world. In the last part of the study, some criticisms directed at Kenefânî and his novels will also be included.

Abstract:
Whether or not we choose to identify the narrator of ‘The Merchant’s Tale’ as the Merchant described in the ‘General Prologue’, this narrative voice is certainly not Chaucer’s own, and it augments the malignity of the tale it tells. The narrator attacks a naïve fool from a disenchanted perspective, but unwittingly reveals the continuing blindness within his own knowing stance. The tale debunks all the noble, even sacred ideals it presents, and characterizes them as foolishly innocent elevations of the spiritual in a world defined by the body in its grossest aspects. The narrator’s rhetorical tropes, floridly presented and habitually misused, gesture towards a sordid reality that they pretend to gloss over. Yet despite itself, the tale implies a psychologically healthy middle ground outside the experience of the narrator or his characters, where body and soul, real and ideal, experience and innocence can meet.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the recommendations for the verbal design of a public speech, presented in Internet content: on websites, in videos of famous coaches. Despite a long history, rhetoric continues to develop, acquiring new forms in new conditions. Rhetoric is considered not only in scientific and educational literature, but also in Internet sources nowadays. In the titles of these sources, the term “rhetoric” itself does not occur, and modern similar concepts of “speechwriting” and “storytelling” are not used, usually the authors use combinations of “oratory”, “oratory” or descriptive constructions such as “skill in public speaking”. Most of the recommendations relate to the psychological aspects of rhetoric, as well as speech techniques. Of the requirements relating to the actual linguistic side of public speaking, one can name colloquialism (and its lexical and syntactic manifestations), dialogic nature (interrogative sentences, immediacy of reaction to the audience's remarks), brevity, understandability, compliance with the norms of speech culture. Such recommendations are the result of a change in the relationship between the speaker and the audience, the emergence of new genres that require the presentation of information in a very short time, the emergence of the possibility of visual accompaniment of the speech. One can note the shift in the focus of rhetoric from linguistic problems proper to the field of psychology.

Abstract:
Psychological well-being is vitally important for the quality of life of the elderly and is only increasing in importance with the rapidly increasing elderly population worldwide. Emerging elderly problems include a deterioration in physical function, loss of friends or spouse, reduced social participation, and reduced economic ability. Hence, the importance of coping with and managing stress in the elderly is also rapidly increasing. This study proposed psychotherapy narration was designed to assist elderly mental well-being by combining person-centered therapy, positive psychology, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Extending from current mainstream psychotherapeutic methods, postmodern psychotherapeutic techniques based on various psychological theories or techniques have begun to be more widely applied. However, almost no previous studies have developed a systematic psychotherapy narration for the elderly. Therefore, this study developed a postmodern psychotherapeutic narration and confirmed its aspects by analyzing elderly satisfaction regarding the corresponding emotion. This satisfaction analysis study found the value of the psychotherapy-narrative model according to the elderly’s stressful situations and emotions. This study can be an initial model of postmodernist-psychotherapy narration for the elderly. Therefore, based on the model of this study, future-oriented development and research on the diversity of the elderly and the effects of each narration are important. The future of this study will give mental self-sustainability to clients who need psychotherapy.

This paper attempts to link Aristotle's Rhetoric and the contemporary study of law. In the first part, Aristotle's Rhetoric is presented generally, with emphasis on its objective, scope and methodology ; the field of study also delimited in relation to logic and dialectics. The second part shows the relevancy and interest of the Rhetoric in three fundamental areas of the study of law, namely, openness of mind towards psychological and social aspects of law, learning the art of argumentation and methodology of intellectual work in general. The conclusion invites the reintroduction of the teaching of rhetoric in the curriculum.

Abstract:
Western science and academia have entered the new millennium with the growing realisation that their theoretical and utilitarian limits have been reached. A particular threshold is experienced across traditional academic disciplines, which is visible in the fact that, on the one hand, the intensity of social, environmental, psychological, health-related and communicational problems people deal with in their everyday lives is increasing; on the other hand, theoretical models and intervention programs that scholarly work provides do not meet the growing necessity. Our paper presents a research project whose starting-point aims are to explore the doctor-patient communication dyad, its functions in the healing process, and to propose a theoretical as well as applicative way forward. In the plans for our research, we aim to study the integrative medical approach and the ways in which language and communication processes allow healing to happen and optimal health to be preserved.

Abstract:
In literary studies, novels carry various ideological values, such as national ideology. Empirical evidence shows that national ideologies can influence and shape regimes nationally and internationally. One of the manifestations of national ideology can be actualized in literary works such as novels and short stories. This research aims to examine the value of nationality in the works of Leila S. Chudori by using the hermeneutic method formulated by Paul Ricoeur. This research is descriptive qualitative research, and the data used are Leila S. Chudori's works, namely 2 novels and 2 short story collections. Meanwhile, data analysis techniques are carried out in three basic stages of hermeneutics formulated by Ricoeur (1975): understanding, discussion, and interpretation. The results show that Leila S. Chudori's works have succeeded in entering the deepest aspects of national values, including psychological, sociological, and historical aspects. The narration in the plot, characters, and themes in Leila S. Chudori's works are able to articulate national values through the characters presented by the author. The narration is related to the memory of Indonesia, love for Indonesia, pride in Indonesia, and Indonesian identity.

Abstract:
Growing attention has been directed towards affects and emotions in the New Testament texts within recent scholarship over the course of the past two decades. Although biblical exegesis of the 20th century suspected psychological interpretations of New Testament texts of being highly subjective and hence frail, recent research has developed a number of approaches that allow for addressing the subject in a methodologically controlled way. The aim of the present article is to review important monographs from the field of New Testament emotion research with special attention to their particular focuses and research methods. Despite some degree of overlap between these perspectives, six major areas of scholarly work can be identified: (1) “text psychology” that explains New Testament findings against the backdrop of modern psychological theories; (2) historical psychology that explores ancient notions of the affects; (3) narratology that observes recurring a narrative pattern in ancient descriptions of the affects; (4) rhetorical criticism that traces the rhetorical presentation of affects as well as the capability of rhetorical language to evoke affects in the addressees; (5) philosophy of the body that examines the bodily aspects of psychological dynamics; and finally (6) social history that identifies social functions of collective affects, e.g., in the formation and stabilization of social groups. After introducing each of these approaches briefly, the affect of desire (gr. ἐπιθυμία) will serve as a test case to demonstrate the possibilities and usefulness that the different perspectives offer. This way, it becomes clear that affects are by no means a by-product of theological teaching in the New Testament, but in fact indicators of true relevance.

Abstract:
Why do people tell stories? Whether it be the oft repeated, endlessly varied fairy tales passed from one generation to the next, the carefully patterned and strictly worded epics of the ancients or tall-tales told around the kitchen table, people have been telling stories to themselves or others since the day someone uttered the first words ever heard on this planet. In the following essay story-telling is called narrativity and is discussed as a function of the desire to impose meaning on experience. The six stories of Drawing the Reader In are about story-telling and how people fail or succeed as story-tellers. Neither can be said to fully answer the question above, rather they elaborate on the possibilities of there being an answer.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines the O.J. Simpson murder trial and analyzes the racial narratives that affected its outcome and the way it is perceived by the American public. By examining four books about the trial written by lawyers who served on the case, the analysis focuses on how race functions within each of the reconstructed narratives, as well as within the framework of the U.S. criminal justice system. The author argues that racial narratives affect how and why people can see the same event differently, a prime example of which is the O.J. Simpson murder trial. Representations of Mark Fuhrman, his role in the O.J. Simpson trial, and how these are affected by racial narratives are also discussed. The author concludes that the O.J. Simpson murder trial presented an opportunity in which issues concerning race, race relations, and ideologies about race could be openly discussed.

The interest in this work From the turning point of the literary narratives to the psychoanalytic intervention arose from the psychoanalytic service performed on Bianca, Jean and Beatriz. Bianca is an illustrative case of psychosis, while the Jean and Beatriz cases are illustrative of autism. The methodology used was the study of the features of the case. In the cases cited, the mark is a solid double bond. The double, according to Lacan, originates from an idealized image, without holes, constituted by the Other and makes reference to the Freudian Unheimlich. Bianca presents a destructive specular image, while in the Jean and Beatriz cases the specular image is still under construction. In all three clinical cases, something surprising has occurred. Even with the presence of the destructive mark of the double, there were unexpected body metamorphoses. Such modifications in their lives brought the idea of a "turning point" as it occurs in literary narratives. The aim of the thesis is, therefore, to analyse how the literature resource, the "turning point", can contribute to interventions in the psychoanalytic clinic in cases whose mark is the massive collage with the double. The turning point refers to the presence of an element that maintains a coherence with the story and, at the same time, brings about changes in the direction and in the very sense of the narrative. This surprising element seems at first glance an accessory, but it becomes fundamental. The twist performs a subversion to what is expected in the story, transforming the relationship between the figure and the background of the narrative and the images constituted by it. The work of this thesis points to the idea of a psychoanalyst, who uses the transference to weave patchwork from the clinical case narrative. The patchwork is an accessory, initially impossible to see or hear. The psychoanalyst, while weaving the patchwork, creates holes in the narrative, thus generating a subversion to a destructive image. The environment generates the literary narrative image after the turning point. In the same way, in the constitution of the subject, it is what is around the subject that determines its specular image. In this way, if the background changes, the figure will also become different. By means of interventions that promote an inversion between figure and background in the constituent narrative of the subject, the destructive image constituted, or even still under construction, may have the route modified and will provide body metamorphoses.
O interesse a respeito deste trabalho Do ponto de virada das narrativas literárias à intervenção psicanalítica surgiu do atendimento psicanalítico realizado a três pacientes: Bianca, Jean e Beatriz (nomes fictícios). Bianca é um caso ilustrativo de psicose, já os casos de Jean e de Beatriz são ilustrativos de autismo. A metodologia utilizada foi a do estudo do traço do caso. Nos casos citados, o que se faz marca é uma colagem maciça ao duplo. O duplo, conforme Lacan, é originado de uma imagem idealizada, sem furos, constituída pelo Outro e faz referência ao Unheimlich freudiano. Bianca apresenta uma imagem especular destrutiva, enquanto em Jean e Beatriz a imagem especular ainda está em construção. Nos três casos clínicos, ocorreu algo de surpreendente. Mesmo com a presença da marca destrutiva do duplo, houve metamorfoses corporais inesperadas. Tais modificações na vida de cada um trouxeram a ideia de um “ponto de virada” tal qual ocorre em narrativas literárias. O objetivo da tese é, portanto, analisar como um recurso da literatura, o “ponto de virada”, pode contribuir para intervenções na clínica psicanalítica em casos cuja marca é a colagem maciça com o duplo. O ponto de virada ou peripécia diz respeito à presença de um elemento que mantém uma coerência com a história e, ao mesmo tempo, traz modificações na direção e no próprio sentido da narrativa. Esse elemento surpreendente parece, à primeira vista, acessório, mas se torna fundamental. A peripécia realiza uma subversão ao que é esperado na história, transformando a relação entre a figura e o fundo da narrativa e das imagens constituídas por esta. O trabalho de tese aponta para a ideia de um psicanalista, que se utiliza da transferência para tecer retalhos da narrativa do caso clínico. Os retalhos são elementos acessórios, inicialmente impossíveis de serem vistos ou escutados. O psicanalista, ao mesmo tempo em que tece os retalhos, ocasiona furos na narrativa, gerando, dessa forma, uma subversão a uma imagem destrutiva. É o entorno que gera a própria imagem nas narrativas literárias após o ponto de virada, como também na constituição do sujeito é o que está em volta do sujeito que determina sua imagem especular. Desse modo, se o fundo se modifica, a figura também se tornará diferente. Por meio de intervenções que propiciam uma inversão entre figura e fundo na narrativa constituinte do sujeito, a imagem destrutiva constituída, ou mesmo ainda em construção, poderá ter o rumo modificado e propiciará metamorfoses corporais.

Abstract:
'In Two Minds' is a novel of false beliefs. Set in contemporary Sydney, it deals with the relationship between two sisters in their late thirties, Kara and Linda Hille. Told in the second person singular from the point of view of the elder sister, Linda, it is based around the neurological delusion of the younger sibling, Kara. Kara wrongly believes that their mother, Stella, has been replaced by an impostor, 'Mrs. Whitegloves'. For the greater part, the narrative 'you' relates events in the sisters' lives and deals with issues such as the consequences of condoned child abuse, the dilemma of human cloning and the future of 'the brand' in the light of contemporary global marketing. Linda, an advertising executive, struggles with a formidable work-project, an account that is lost to a competitor, and the mistaken belief that she is responsible for her sister's plight. Shocking graffiti about herself, which appears at the same time as she wins an advertising award, proves to be the catalyst that brings beneficial change to her life. Through the tragedy of confronting her sister's devastation and her own challenges, Linda leaves her job, believing this will allow her to start again - differently. In the final chapter, the difference is registered in a shift from the second person to the consolidated first person method of narration. ABSTRACT EXEGESIS The dissertation 'A Singular Voice' documents aspects of authorial, psychoanalytical and literary significance in the creation of a fiction which draws on personal material confrontational to the writer. It also discusses some wider (non-fictional and other) uses of the narrative 'you' in order to establish the literary tradition in which the novel 'In Two Minds' may be situated. This disseration examines the use of the second-person singular pronoun 'you' as narrator, mainly in contemporary fiction. It concentrates on the ways in which the narrative 'you' was employed to achieve a 'cover', mask or persona for the 'I' behind the text in the novel 'In Two Minds', and explains why it was necessary to seek such subterfuge. It describes how certain grammatical and rhetorical resources were used to build and maintain 'cover', while at the same time allowing the narrative 'you' to express a particular aspect of the fictional protagonist, address the reader, and sustain the story of which it is the intradiegetic narratee. Related narrative elements include construction of the characters through the use of the narrative 'you', for example the narcissistic mother, Stella; the phantom double, 'Mrs. Whitegloves'; the sufferer of Capgras' delusion, Kara; and the ultimate bearer of the singular 'you' voice, the protagonist Linda.

Full text
Abstract:
This study explores the complex relationship between radical right rhetoric and the genre of apocalyptic rhetoric. The radical right consists of the White Nationalist and Patriot movements, two common "hate group" movements in the United States. The Klanwatch (1998d) explains that the number of hate groups in the United States grew by 20 percent in 1997. They attribute much of this growth to the movement's use of the Internet. Although these hate groups are highly diverse, Christian Identity is a common theology to which many members of the radical right adhere.This study analyzes two artifacts representational of Christian Identity rhetoric. These artifacts were found on the Web site of the Northwest Kinsmen, a radical right group from the Pacific Northwest. Christian Identity is a "pseudo-Christian" theology that claims that white Christians are the true Israelites and that Jews are actually "children of Satan." Christian Identity followers believe that there will be a racial war (i.e., racial apocalypse) in which white Christians will triumph over the forces of evil (Abanes, 1996).This study utilizes the rhetorical method of generic criticism to determine that the Christian Identity rhetoric present on the Northwest Kinsmen's Web site is apocalyptic rhetoric. Generic theory, the theoretical foundation of this study, argues that rhetorical genres have common situational, substantive, and stylistic features and a common "organizing principle" that unifies the genre. Therefore, this study compares the key features of apocalyptic rhetoric to the Northwest Kinsmen artifacts. Through this study, a greater understanding of the social reality, beliefs, attitudes, and values of the radical right, Christian Identity rhetors is obtained.This study discovers that the Christian Identity rhetoric found on the Northwest Kinsmen's Web site is apocalyptic rhetoric. This study illustrates that these Christian Identity rhetors believe that they are living in a chaotic world of inexplicable problems. Through apocalyptic rhetoric, the rhetors help explain the "crises" facing the audience and therefore restore order in their lives. Specifically, this study shows how these apocalyptic rhetors utilize conspiracy theories to restore order. Additionally, it illustrates how the rhetorical strategies associated with apocalyptic rhetoric (i.e., typology, transfer, and style and language) are used to enhance the credibility of the rhetor and the legitimacy of even the most racist assertions. Finally, this study provides insight into the use of the Internet by radical right groups.

Abstract:
This thesis examines two causes of writer's block developed during the revision stage of the composing process: instructors' unexplained notations and unwanted voice alterations within students' texts. The study examines the emotions students experience caused by instructors' actions which Nelson and Rose say contribute to temporary and even permanent cases of writer's block. After exemplifying the connection between emotions and writer's block, the remainder of the study focuses on finding solutions to these causes of writer's block. As a result of my research, I discovered the primary solution is communication between instructors and students.

Abstract:
Abstract To establish the main features that characterize the male saints portrayed by Fortunatus, we shall first concentrate on the depiction of the holy men in the earliest phase of life. In the description of the young man, we find the profile of the whole saint. If such an assertion seems to place undue importance on one aspect of what is presumably a more comprehensive literary representation, that is because we generally expect biographical narrative to mirror the course of human life as it progresses not only physically, which is obvious, but also psychologically through several distinct stages marking the passages from birth to death. The literature we are about to examine, however, shows little correspondence to our modern scheme or even our experience of human development. With respect to that gradual psychological formation of a child into what we commonly call a “self-actualized” adult, the writing of Fortunatus is a case in which art does not reflect life. The gray-haired holy man de­ scribed on his deathbed is fundamentally the same in character as the saintly youth depicted in the early portions of a Vita. Even in death, the saint continues to perform from the tomb virtually the same functions that he did while alive.

Abstract:
Abstract Ramon Llull’s zeal for leading the mind to truth causes him to treat most aspects of communication first as epistemological or psychological processes and second as linguistic or rhetorical functions. His Great Universal Art of Finding Truth primarily provides a method of discovering or evaluating ideas rather than of generating discursive arguments. This preeminently heuristic purpose ensures that invention is the division of Ciceronian rhetoric that Llull’s Great Art most completely replaces. The Ars compendiosa inveniendi veritatem, Llull’s first full version of his system (composed between 1274 and 1283), treats invention not as discovery of words or reasonings, but as manipulation of concepts through symbolic letters arranged in charts and tables. The Art demostrativa of 1283 even notes the traditional division of dialectic into invention and judgment, but treats these sheerly as cognitive practices (4.2.5.62). Nonetheless, insofar as Llull’s system treats mental and oral discourse as homologous, it serves the invention of arguments for discursive presentation. The Great Art not only leads the mind to find absolute truth, it helps the mind to defend that truth. Hence, it should hardly surprise us that Llull invariably offers his own system as a method for generating copious material to expound in secular and sacred eloquence. Occasionally he does recommend inventional devices from the contemporary arts of language, but these come almost exclusively from the ars praedicandi.

Abstract:
Focusing on character studies of Oliver Cromwell by William Godwin and Thomas Carlyle, this chapter argues that the goal of romantic-era character studies was not to affect the reader deeply, but rather to reveal the inner constructions of the mind through rhetorical techniques such as invented orations and indirect narration. These internalising techniques reflect a wider shift within written history from the 1820s onwards from a physiological focus on the outward or bodily manifestations of affective experience towards a behaviouralist study of the historical self as an internalised subject-in-formation. The transition from external to internal characterisations emanated, in part, from literary models of character that emphasised psychological depth principles, but it also emerged from theories of the self in enlightenment faculty psychology and from revised understandings of classical rhetoric. Carlyle and Godwin’s recognition that the internal and non-verifiable elements of history, such as underlying motives, feelings, agency, and volition, could best be revealed through an examination of eyewitness accounts and other primary documents also forms part of a wider ‘archival turn’ in the 1820s, one that provided new technologies for the staging of historical selves.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses two very different forms of omniscience, and Wayne Booth famously described and deconstructed them in A Rhetoric of Fiction. The Victorian novel is, at a certain point, annexed to a structuralist idea of French realism, which is imagined as free of intrusive narration. These combined critical moves regularize the Victorian novel into something less interesting and less problematic than what it had been for previous generations of more skeptical critics, or critics for whom that novel was not yet great. The chapter also explains that the pleasure of the text is also the pleasure of consenting to not knowing, to knowing that one does not know and having that be a condition of being in the world. Readers do not identify with characters because they are like people, but because readers are like characters, relying on forms of omniscience to keep narrating various aspects of reality for them. Omniscience hangs around as an omnipresent narrative and epistemological form. Disembodied but not disempowered, dismembered but not defunctioned.

Abstract:
Essentially an exploration of the Russian-born American author, Ayn Rand’s philosophy, and objectivism, her novel, ‘The Fountainhead’, holds a well-deserved spot in the architectural world. Although criticized harshly for a number of its literary aspects, the world-famous work emphasizes that integrity is one of the distinguishing qualities between individuals who have retained their sense of self and others who have succumbed to the ideas of equality, acceptance and altruism. This central idea is presented to the reader via the allegorical story of the archetypal “ideal person/architect,” Howard Roark, who epitomizes the tenets of Rand’s philosophy. Rand recounts this story through the depiction of four different characters, Keating, Toohey, Wynand, and Roark, whose lives and choices represent logical variations on her philosophical and psychological themes. As opposed to Roark, Keating is a conformist and surrenders his judgment for acceptance and success. Toohey is a power seeker with no tangible talent other than rhetoric, and Wynand, the only sound character in the novel, is a publisher of vulgar tabloids, yet possesses the innate essence to appreciate humanity’s noblest achievements. Architecture serves as an all-encompassing metaphor, and the protagonist’s architectural views represent his philosophy of life, just as buildings designed by Peter Keating and other characters represent their philosophies. The novel emphasizes that the basic principle embodied by the architect is inscribed in their work, while also reminding the reader that each individual continues to exist with such an absolute principle.

Abstract:
We analyze the presentation software Prezi as an evocative object and a talkative technology that engages users in diverse web-based learning situations. Prezi claims to offer an alternative to a much ridiculed PowerPoint, and Prezi's rhetorical options indeed privilege storytelling and metaphors through spatial organization, movement, and visuals. Still, we argue that many educational prezis in psychology fall short of such aims, relying on bullet points in a decorated, quasi slide-based document. The Prezi company, together with dedicated commercial and professional users, create a talkative and plurivocal technology, with a flow of tutorials and showcased presentations. Nonetheless, we propose that these voices leave important aspects uncovered for educational users, and we argue that the Prezi team should redefine its author guidance strategy. The paper is structured as follows: we first discuss the significance of presentation tools for learning. We then go on to investigate what is Prezi and how we encounter it. We analyze several types of messages from and about Prezi, and we discuss how it is currently used. We conclude the paper by highlighting the main findings and reflecting on implications for research on digital rhetoric. Prezi is designed as an evocative technology: it explicitly aims to encourage certain ways of dealing with knowledge, organizing information in space, through movement and storylines. Its templates bring to the fore metaphors as a persuasive device; the most acclaimed prezis, highlighted through contests and various informal rankings, illustrate the presentation principle of a journey through a visual landscape, using movement to create surprise and perplexity by zooming in, and to achieve clarification by zooming out to the bird's-eye view. Prezi is also a verbose and multivocal tool: commercial and technical interests fuel a flow of messages and conversations about how to design prezis, aiming for 'stunning' presentations, for clarity and creativity. Prezi users have much to learn from 'tips and tricks' presentations and from illustrations in showcased prezis. Nonetheless, many prezis composed for classroom use, among those published on the Prezi platform, do not make full use of the tool's capabilities and do not really follow its invitations to storytelling, metaphorical argumentation and spatial reasoning. We have observed this shortcoming in the case of prezis about psychological conditions such as depression, bipolar disorders, and delusions: although such conditions can be greatly clarified through analogies and storytelling, the bullet list of symptoms and causes remains a dominant rhetorical device in prezi frames. Visuals are used mostly for decoration, and movements do not have other rhetorical use besides the creation of attention-grabbing transitions. We propose that part of this limitation derives from the business focus of Prezi, including its clarifying-and-encouraging voices. There are relatively few showcased prezis that deal with the clarification of scientific concepts, and there is no special focus on science throughout the corpus of prezi tutorials. Users could also benefit from comments on specific prezis, explaining how they do what they do: teachers and students may well appreciate the persuasive power of a stunning prezi without having the vocabulary to describe and then reflect on its rhetorical choices. This requires redefining the Prezi tutorial approach through an intersection between the currently disparate endeavors of 'tips and tricks' advice versus showcasing prominent, creative prezis.
