Rather than try to do too much, let's focus on Campbell next week. That way we can read a selection, and then delve into a little secondary material. Please read PoR preface, intro, and book 1. If you do not own it, here is a full-text e-version:

After reading the primary source, please read these two articles, available in pdf format from Carrier:
Walzer, Arthur E. "Campbell on the passions: a rereading of the Philosophy of rhetoric." Quarterly Journal Of Speech 85, no. 1 (February 1999): 72-85.
Bevilacqua, Vincent M. "Campbell, Vico, and the Rhetorical Science of Human Nature." Philosophy & Rhetoric 18, no. 1 (Winter1985 1985): 23-30.
While you are reading, pay close attention to Campbell's use of faculty psychology and resemblance theory. Hopefully our discussion leader can take some time to address these ideas and how they relate to the study of the rhetoric of science.

ReplyDeleteHere is the online resource with the reading with page numbers, for anyone that's interested and for future reference.
Hey Guys!
ReplyDeleteI've selected three readings for tomorrow. They are relatively short and pertain to the topics we discussed in class:
1) audience-centered rhetoric
2) Campbell and Psychology
Here are the citations (full PDFs are in the JMU library database)
Hagaman, John. "George Campbell And The Creative Management Of
Audience." Rhetoric Society Quarterly 13.1 (1983): 21-24. MLA International Bibliography. Web. 23 Jan. 2013.
Mohrmann, G.P. "George Campbell: The Psychological Background." Western Speech 32.2 (1968): 99-104. Communication & Mass Media Complete. Web. 23 Jan. 2013.
I also thought this Bitzer article was very insightful.
Bitzer, Lloyd F. "All Art Is Founded In Science." Rhetoric Society Quarterly 1 (1983): 13. JSTOR Arts & Sciences VII. Web. 23 Jan. 2013.
You are by no means obligated to read this, I will be sharing these articles with class tomorrow. I just wanted to post them in case you wanted to take a look.
Thanks!
