What Does Rhetorical Theory Do? and Is That a Stupid Question?
Abstract
This article reports on the 2002 National Communication pre-conference seminar. as part of the continuing dialogue among rhetoricians about the current state of rhetorical theory, the pre-conference seminar series offered an opportunity for rhetoric scholars to consider the functions served by rhetorical theory. the seminar opened with framing comments from co-leaders, followed by brief presentations from four featured speakers. These were followed by small group sessions in which participants explored the themes developed in their position papers.
