Abstract:
Abstract In this study, we analyse the rhetorical strategies of legitimation used by professionals when their conduct is exposed as wrong. Focusing on banking as a professional field and the conduct of bankers during the 2007–8 global financial crisis we ask two questions: what rhetorical strategies did senior bankers use to justify their actions and defend the legitimacy of their profession in the face of widespread public disapproval of banking practices? How did bankers use their professional field to legitimize their behaviour? To answer these questions, we analyse the justificatory rhetoric used by UK banking executives during the Treasury Select Committee hearings following the crisis. Drawing on our analysis we developed a typology of rhetorical strategies of legitimation used by the bankers, based in part on the concept of neutralization techniques. We argue that bankers, with some exceptions, drew largely on intra-field rhetoric, deeply embedded in institutionalized practices, to justify their behaviour and legitimize their profession. The lack of more convincing inter-field rhetoric only accentuated the mismatch between the moral universe of the bank executive and that of the traditional citizen, voter, and taxpayer.

Abstract:
The theoretical and methodological substantiation of a new philological trend - decoding rhetoric, which is formed by synthesizing analytical rhetoric, cognitive science, semiotics, and text linguistics is presented in the article. Actual circumstances and factors that determine the possibility of highlighting the decoding rhetoric are indicated. A comparison of the style of decoding and decoding rhetoric is carried out. The concept of decoding rhetoric is described, its object and subject are formulated. The cognitive-communicative foundations of rhetorical decoding are considered. The concept of a rhetorical textotype as a cognitive landmark, or mental pattern programmed by the structure of a communicative act, is introduced. The rhetorical textotype as a model with the persuasive or acting potential of the text acts as a reference point for recognizing the producer's text-forming intention. Communicative-cognitive correlations are established that explain the essence of an effective text. Particular attention is paid to the rhetorical reconstruction of text formation as a research method. Rhetorical reconstruction as an analytical procedure allows to gradually consider the methods and means of verbalization of text formation strategies - inventive, dispositive and elocative. Rhetorical reconstruction acts as a tool for diagnosing the effectiveness of the text, and also identifies areas of its rhetorical risks. Areas of application of rhetorical reconstruction are indicated. The prospects of studying decoding rhetoric as a field of knowledge claiming its own linguo-ontological status are outlined.

Abstract:
Within the last decade, ethnographic fieldwork has become a prominent part of rhetorical scholarship. As a ­rhetorical method, it has grown out of ethographic methodo­logy and performance studies and has a clear critical bend. This paper argues that rhetorical fieldwork might distinguish itself more clearly from other ethnographic methodology in two basic respects: One is the grounding of the method in the rhetorician as a competent participant who puts her phronesis, i.e. her ­practical skill and sense of judgement as a rhetorician, to work in a particular field and situation. The other concerns the ­obligation of the rhetorician to investigate and develop rhetorical agency, on her own part as well as that of other participants, in the interest of developing and strengthening deliberative democracy. A case study serves to illustrate this epistemology and develop the methodology: The rhetorician becomes part of an aesthetic development project concerned with the visual identity and branding of an old industrial area in Larvik, ­Norway

Abstract:
Understanding verbal jokes in English is problematic for English as Foreign Language (EFL) readers since understanding the jokes requires understanding their linguistic, cultural and social elements. Since a joke constitutes a complex and paradoxical phenomenon, it needs multiple approaches of analyses—such as pragmatic and rhetorical analyses—in order to investigate the multiple layers of meanings it carries. Recently there has been a shift in humor studies, emphasizing linguistic humors and involving the field of rhetoric. These studies, however, have mostly addressed the connection between rhetoric and spoken jokes in persuasion. The present study therefore applied Austin’s Speech Act Theory (1975) and Grice’s Cooperative Principles (1957), and Berger’s rhetorical techniques (1993) to crack the funniness of the written jokes. Specifically, the study aims at describing: how the (1) rhetorical and (2) pragmatic strategies are used in the jokes, and (3) how the pragmatic and rhetorical strategies complement to create humor. The study employed a qualitative research method. Some jokes were purposively selected from the Reader’s Digest and two online sources: http://jokes.cc.com/, and http://www.ajokeaday.com/. Document studies were the means of data collection. The collected data were then analyzed using a qualitative content analysis. The results showed that that there was a relationship between the two pragmatic theories, i.e., Speech Act Theory and Cooperative Principles, and Berger’s rhetorical techniques. The results offered an alternative reading and richer understanding of how written jokes employed pragmatic and rhetorical strategies to advance their rhetorical objectives and humor functions.

Abstract:
Taking a combined theoretical and empirical approach, this essay studies the rhetorical implications of speech-reporting strategies in medieval East Slavic hagiography and homiletics. The author argues for a pragmatic approach to the study of a particular rhetorical concept: enargeia ‘the power of language to create a vivid presence of that which is set forth in words’. The first part of the article outlines the constitutive characteristics of enargeia, based on its treatment in rhetorical handbooks of Classical and Late Antiquity and on the rhetorical practice. Part two moves on to discuss reported speech as one possible field of study for an investigation of the “pragmatics of enargeia” at work in medieval texts, with a view to demonstrating the relevance of central pragmatic categories for the study of what one could call “enargetic rhetoric”. Examples are taken from Nestor of the Caves’ Life of Feodosij (eleventh century) and Kirill of Turov’s sermons (late twelfth century).

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to show, by examining the exercise books of Beata Rosenhane, how a woman of the salons was educated in the mid-seventeenth century, to compare her learning to that of boys from the same period, and by doing this, to give a brief description of a little-noticed species of rhetorical training——the methods and means used for preparing young girls to take part in the rhetorical practices of the salons. The essay shows that different rhetorical repertoires existed during the seventeenth century according to the different futures envisioned for various groups of students,and that changes in the understanding of rhetoric as a field have obscured the accomplishments of women trained to meet the demands of the salon.

Abstract:
Subject to neglect and at times harsh criticism, the eighteenth-century British elocutionary movement merits reconsideration as a complex rhetorical episode within the history of rhetoric. Confirming the value of the rhetorical analysis of rhetorical texts, this essay examines the forms and functions of persuasion which two key treatises from the elocutionary movement enacted within their own socio-historical context. A rhetorical reading of Thomas Sheridan's A Course of Lectures on Elocution (1762) and John Walker's Elements of Elocution (1781) - informedby theories of ethos, logos, and pathos - illustrates the nuances of the different cases made for the scholarly and educational credibility of elocution as a new field of study within the context of late eighteenth-century British culture: Walker's text, while profiting from Sheridan's earlier promotional campaign for the value of elocutionary study, attempts to redress the excesses of his forerunner's “florid harangue[s]” and to fill in the gaps of his incomplete instructional method.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyzes the eulogistic and ideological rhetoric generated by the commemoration ceremonies recognizing the first anniversary of the events of September 11, 2001. By evaluating these ceremonies generically through a set of established epideictic criteria, a comparison and contrast of form and style in relation to their varying situations and rhetorical constraints was achieved. The intentional introduction of deliberative aspects to epideictic rhetoric was also a focus of this study in an attempt to discern the ideological frameworks employed by the various rhetors responsible for the content of the day's events. By analyzing the tokens and ideographs embedded in the rhetoric of the commemorative speakers, the ideological purposes of the planners and rhetors of the ceremonies were revealed. As a nationally televised, ceremonial event, the 9/11 commemoration failed. The mixed messages contained in the eulogies and the lack of a planned rhetorical strategy resulted in an emotionally engaging but fragmented exercise in public discourse.

Abstract:
With tightening university budgets, never before has the activity level of research grant proposal writing been more intense. With increased proposal numbers, including for the National Science Foundation's (NSF) prestigious CAREER award, has also come increased competition and decreased funding rates. This dissertation has searched for successful and unsuccessful characteristics from funded and unfunded CAREER proposals. The research focused on a study of two key subjects: 1) a corpus of 20 texts that included 12 funded proposals and 8 unfunded proposals from across NSF programs, and 2) an ethnographic analysis comprised from interviews with 14 NSF program officers (PO) from varying programs. Coding elements with the texts to uncover topical chains of content, rhetorical, and document design strategies revealed sound rhetorical moves and rhetorical mistakes. The study also illustrated evidence of adherence to or neglect of NSF-mandated writing/formatting conventions as connected to the likelihood of receiving funding. Moreover, the study revealed conventions that have developed for the genre that are not prescribed by NSF but that, nevertheless, seem to be expected. Through genre field analysis, the study's interviews with program officers (PO) revealed a system of genre-agents and player-agents that interact together in a highly rhetorical and social system. This system, comprised of locales in which a multitude of play scenarios can be enacted to exert influence, operates within fairly exact rules of play. Such rules may be published by NSF or simply be "understood," yet principal investigators (PI) are held accountable for them regardless. The ethnography created from interviews with POs revealed multiple genre field elements (e.g., genre- and player-agents, transformative locales, play scenarios, penalty conditions) as well as common mistakes and best practices. A complete mapping of the CAREER award proposal preparation, submission, and review process resulted from the study, which mapping has offered insightful strategies to expand PI (and other agents') influence on the funding process. The dissertation concluded by offering investigators a step-by-step process to identify and map the elements of the proposal genre field in which they operate.

Abstract:
Having been introduced in Sweden in the 1980’s, one would perhaps have thought postmodern philosophy to be a thing of the past. As it turns out, the debate on postmodernism is still very much alive. But the term ‘postmodernism’ in 2021 is complex and sometimes misunderstood. In public discourse, the term has moved beyond its status as a continental philosophy or as a denomination for certain historical conditions of the late twentieth century. Today, it appears, people use ‘postmodernism’ as an invective for relativism, post-truth and ‘empty words’. Two books, published in 2020, even warn the Swedish people for a postmodern invasion of both the academics and Swedish government. The humanities, apparently, are especially corrupted by postmodern thinking. Is this true? As a rhetorician, I ask myself to what extent postmodern theory has had an influence on Swedish rhetoric in the 40 years since the discipline was re-established within higher education.  This essay examines course syllabuses, teaching material, Swedish articles in the periodical Rhetorica Scandinavica, doctoral theses, and the complete works published by Sweden’s eight professors of rhetoric. Early on, I found that there was very little information available about the development of  Swedish rhetoric –even less about a postmodern rhetoric in a Swedish context. Thus, this essay is to be looked at as both a history of Swedish postmodern rhetoric – the first of its kind – and as an examination of the occurrence of postmodern theory within Swedish rhetoric. I find that postmodernism has not, as opposed to the critics’ claims, played a key role in the development of Swedish rhetoric. Its presence has, however, significantly increased within the field of rhetoric since 2010, and I discuss why that might be. Further, I discuss what can be said to define the Swedish postmodern rhetoric, and what the future might hold for this specific branch of rhetorical studies and research.

Grounded on a more constructivist and procedural perspective of science in which social and cultural practices reveal how science is made, this thesis aimed to analyse how the process of knowledge building in the field of Organizational Studies in Brazil occurred. To this end, we followed the evolution of scientific production from a longitudinal perspective, through the identification of legitimacy strategies of scientific contributions made by the authors in scientific articles that would reveal how these strategies differ rhetorically among them. We, then, unveil how these strategies differ rhetorically and map scientific contribution legitimacy strategies’ networks vs actors (individual and institutional ones) by watching how they influenced the positions of the players-actors in the scientific field over time and how they influenced the process of knowledge building in Organizational Studies. Drawing from the theory of the fields (Bourdieu, 1983a; 2004b; Greenwood, Suddaby and Hinings, 2002; Martin, 2003; Fligstein, 2003; Davis and Marquis 2005; Emirbayer and Johnson, 2008; Fligstein and McAdam, 2011; 2012) and some factors that influence the knowledge construction in Administration, we sought to understand how the actors present and defend their scientific contributions, also how the distribution of capital is organized, how the actors position themselves in the field and how they dispute the monopoly of scientific authority. Data collection consisted in the selection of 500 articles from 1960 to 2014, 430 in national journals and 70 in international ones, composing a database with various information regarding the articles. Data were categorized based on the content analysis (Bardin, 2006) and analysed through rhetorical analysis (Mann and Thompson 1988). This research thesis has shown that the actors use the argumentative capital differently, although apparently similar, depending on the context of their scientific contribution legitimacy’s strategy: internal scientific discourse, the practice’s discourse or the combination of both. Considering the use of these strategies and the ownership of capitals such as scientific and economic, from the rules of the game in the field, stakeholder groups divide themselves and compete for positions from the following setting: scientific vs ambiguous and practical vs ambiguous. Organizational Studies evolved gradually from an initial ‘pre-field’ to the current phase of the field, now with clear goals, well-defined game rules and marked positions within the existing dispute. However, beyond the repertoire defined for internal scientific discourse, the use of scientific contribution legitimacy’s strategies shows that the authors also try to legitimize their contributions through external strategies of the field, which, in turn, endorses that the Brazilian Organizational Studies field cannot yet be considered as a ‘pure’ scientific field still in search of autonomy. Key-words: scientific field, organizational studies, knowledge, rhetorical analysis, legitimacy strategies.
Esta tese teve por objetivo analisar como se deu o processo de construção de conhecimento na área de Estudos Organizacionais no Brasil, partindo de uma perspectiva mais construtivista e processual da ciência, direcionada para as práticas sociais e culturais presentes no processo científico que revelam como a ciência é feita. Para tanto, acompanhamos a evolução da produção científica a partir de uma ótica longitudinal, identificando as estratégias de legitimidade das contribuições científicas apresentadas pelos autores nos artigos científicos, desvendando como estas estratégias de legitimidade se diferenciam retoricamente e mapeando redes de estratégias de legitimidade de contribuição científica X atores (individuais e institucionais), observando como estas influenciaram as posições dos jogadores-atores no campo ao longo do tempo e como estas influenciaram o processo de construção de conhecimentos em Estudos Organizacionais.Tomando como base a teoria de campos (BOURDIEU, 1983a; 2004b; GREENWOOD, SUDDABY e HININGS, 2002; MARTIN, 2003; FLIGSTEIN, 2003; DAVIS e MARQUIS 2005; EMIRBAYER e JOHNSON, 2008; FLIGSTEIN e MCADAM, 2011; 2012) e alguns fatores que influenciam o processo de construção do conhecimento em Administração, buscamos compreender como os atores apresentam e defendem suas contribuições científicas, como se organiza a distribuição de capitais, como se posicionam no campo e como disputam o monopólio da autoridade científica. A coleta de dados consistiu na seleção de 500 artigos, 430 em periódicos nacionais e 70 em periódicos internacionais, compondo um banco de dados com diversas informações em torno dos artigos, considerando o período de 1960 até 2014. Os dados foram categorizados com base na análise de conteúdo (BARDIN, 2006) e analisados por meio de análise retórica (MANN e THOMPSON, 1988). A pesquisa mostrou que os atores (individuais e institucionais) fazem uso do capital argumentativo de modo diferenciado, embora aparentemente semelhante, conforme o contexto de sua estratégia de legitimidade de contribuição científica: discurso científico interno, discurso da prática ou a combinação de ambos. Considerando a utilização destas estratégias e da posse de capitais como científico e econômico, a partir das regras do jogo no campo, grupos de atores se dividem e disputam posições a partir da configuração: científicos X ambíguos e práticos X ambíguos.O campo de Estudos Organizacionais evoluiu aos poucos de uma fase inicial de pré-campo até a fase atual de campo, com objetivos claros, regras do jogo definidas e posições marcadas na disputa existente em seu interior. Entretanto, o uso de estratégias de legitimidade de contribuição científica para além do repertório definido para o discurso científico interno mostra que os autores também tentam legitimar suas contribuições via estratégias externas ao campo científico, revelando, assim, que o campo de Estudos Organizacionais brasileiro ainda não pode ser considerado como um campo científico 'puro', tratando-se de um campo ainda em busca de autonomia.

Abstract:
Research into mystical experience has to date relied primarily on retrospective self reports of mystical states. Analysis of such reports assumes a direct correspondence between their content and the content of the experiences. But experiencers themselves often express dissatisfaction with the capacity of language to convey these states, and the language they do choose to use is typically vague and ambiguous. The current dissertation argues that vagueness is not an accidental nor an unfortunate feature of mystical communications. Because of difficulties in direct expression, mystical communicators rely on the active and imaginative participation of the listener/reader to complete the expression. A theory of provocative gaps is developed to explain how this operates. A "gap" is conceived of as an open receptacle in linguistic space. It provides a site within a discourse upon which receptive listeners/readers can insert content from their own experience. Gaps can be created by blatant omissions of content, but in written descriptions are more likely to occur in indirect forms by exploiting subtleties in grammar and meaning. A simple diagrammatic system is developed for explaining the gap-provoking potential of several major rhetorical strategies. Three studies were designed to explore whether and at what frequency written testimonials of mystical experience exploit a selection of 31 of these gap-provoking strategies: the first study exposed their high frequency in extracts by well-known published mystics; the second indicated similarly high frequencies for the average person's description; and the third found significantly higher rates in mystical testimonials than in descriptions by the same participants of dream or travel experiences. A similar use of vagueness can be found in the language of hypnotic trance induction, and as an adjunct to the second study, the hypnotic susceptibility of 81 subjects was assessed and results indicated that subjects with mystical inclinations were more susceptible to hypnosis than those without. The general support of the studies for a theory of provocative gaps suggests that the notion of intentional vagueness could have useful application in the study of other types of communication, including: the media, art criticism, teaching, psychotherapy and academic discourse.

Abstract:
Communication is paramount to promoting successful implementation of business strategy. However, little research has focused on what constitutes effective communication of strategy. A quasi-field experiment was conducted to build on current research regarding whether the use of graphic rhetoric is better than text in communicating business strategy to a diverse audience. A total of 44 employees were exposed to the same strategic message through different modes of communication: one using graphic rhetoric and the other text. A pre-test was administered to determine demographics, business strategy exposure and understanding. A post-test was administered to review the levels of attention, agreement, understanding and recall. Participants were then retested seven days later to further test recall. Results suggest that graphic rhetoric can enhance the communication of business strategy across a diverse audience. Further research with a longitudinal design is necessary to understand the role of visual rhetoric in comprehension and implementation of strategy.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter maps the field of international organizations (IOs) in food that has been institutionalized as a global policy field since WWII and has undergone several shifts since then. The chapter traces the emergence of the major IOs of the field, especially the Food and Agriculture Organization, the World Bank, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the World Food Program, and more recently also the International Labor Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund. The second half of the twentieth century began with visionary ideas about the global regulation of food production and consumption, moved to a concern with smallholders and food security, and ended with a neoliberal shift away from production toward ensuring consumption through world trade. The new millennium is marked by a rhetorical consensus between the main IOs, new debates about production, hopes in the social protection agenda, as well as increasingly vocal organized critics of the dominant order.

Abstract:
Abstract Since the European refugee crisis 2015, the rather bureaucratic asylum and migration policy has become a highly politicised issue in ECE countries. The politicisation process started while political parties were involved with the policy. However, many studies have ignored the practice of executives’ and administrations’ action in this domain and knowledge of whether this public anti-EU rhetoric really resulted in non-compliance, therefore, remains limited. This chapter interlinks politicisation and non-compliance research in a comparative case study of Hungary and the Czech Republic. While combining findings of expert interviews, data on party manifestos and infringement procedures, it concludes that the partial politicisation did not lead to broader non-compliance in the Czech case, whereas the governmental-led politicisation in Hungary resulted in non-compliance. This difference is explained by the fact that in Hungary, the asylum-related administration, like other bureaucratic fields, has become increasingly re-politicised during the last decade.

Abstract:
This textual analysis highlights the rhetorical prowess of Poor Economics and argues that it is part of the puzzling success of RCTs in economics. It shows how Banerjee and Duflo combine effectively (1) logos (rational discourse, figures, extensive use of numbers), (2) pathos (striking anecdotes to move the reader, personified figures) and (3) ethos (the narrators exhibit wisdom, excellence, and good will). Despite their explicit discard of anecdotes, the authors make ubiquitous use of them. This becomes less paradoxical when considering their manifold persuasive functions. Anecdotes additionally have an understated but inchoate heuristic role. This chapter also scrutinizes two impactful rhetorical schemes: the sensible middle ground between two extremes, and the rhetoric of small measures producing big effects, which magnifies the micro and minimizes the macro. This canny, partly manipulative, rhetoric should not overshadow the thinness of its storytelling and the extent of blind spots in RCTs revealed by what is out-of-discourse.

The Introduction orients readers to the book in three ways. It begins by introducing Augustine’s training in rhetoric and the manner in which scholarship has treated Augustine’s use of concepts from that field. It then presents a summary of the chapters, detailing how Part I (Chapters 1–2) and Part II (Chapters 3–5) fit together to form the book’s argument. Finally, it concludes by noting two limitations of this study.

Abstract:
This essay provides suggestions for integrating the interdisciplinary field of peace studies and literary analysis by attending to rhetorical strategies in Leonard and Virginia Woolf’s nonfiction. The field of peace studies often relies on the social sciences and data-driven analytics, borrowing from the humanities only for vague ideas like “inspiration” and “creativity.” Andrews argues that the Woolfs’ rhetorical form offers additional resources to peace-activist writers. With a nod to the “political formalist” turn of scholars such as Caroline Levine and Joseph North, Andrews examines the ways that the formal features of the Woolfs’ writing enact their antiwar politics. Leonard Woolf insisted that his strategies for antiwar internationalism were based in reason rather than utopianism, and his prose style displays that “reasonableness” by using the tropes of western, academic argumentation. By contrast, Virginia Woolf’s circular, elliptical, and repetitive style in Three Guineas resists the combative, western academic models in which opposing views are demolished through rhetorical assaults and stockpiles of evidence. The Woolfs were united in their use of ridicule, a device that sometimes seems antithetical to nonviolent speech. Ridicule, however, holds the potential to be the art of “making ridiculous,” of pointing out the absurdity and foolishness of over-inflated, self-serious political views or actors. In this capacity it is a rhetorical form that deflates and redirects political extremity without rising to the level of its violence. As Andrews shows, the Woolfs’ writing suggests a range of options for peace-activist writing today and their rhetorical sophistication extends our capacities for a pacifist imagination.

Abstract:
Language and law are phenomena that have emerged in the course of human social evolution and are "fundamental to human existence". The nature of their relationship within society has long been of concern to both linguists and legal scholars in terms of rhetoric, oratory, style, and terminology. This article examines the emerging socially significant problems that can only be solved in close interaction between linguistics and law. Thus, in the 20th century, it became necessary to create new language versions of existing legislation. It was possible to solve legal problems in close cooperation with linguists, which helped to strengthen ties between the two branches of science.

Abstract:
The narrative of an artificial intelligence “arms race” among the great powers has become shorthand to describe evolving dynamics in the field. Narratives about AI matter because they reflect and shape public perceptions of the technology. In this issue brief, the second in a series examining rhetorical frames in AI, the authors compare four narrative frames that are prominent in public discourse: AI Competition, Killer Robots, Economic Gold Rush and World Without Work.
