Overview
A creative, innovative approach to the process of rhetorical criticism! Our everyday experiences entail the use of symbols, both our own and those of others. We engage in “the process of thinking about symbols, discovering how they work and why they affect us, and choosing to communicate in particular ways as a result of the options they present. This process is called rhetorical criticism.” Foss guides readers to an awareness and understanding of what rhetoric is and how it is used to create reality. She helps readers to become more discriminating in explaining, investigating, and understanding symbols and in devising their responses to them. This valuable book will help readers hone their abilities as communicators and also as audience members.Book Details
