A Theory of Contemporary Rhetoric
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-50354-9 (ISBN)
As an overarching theory in the communication arts, rhetoric is elegant as a theoretical solution and simple as a practical one. It asks such questions as who is speaking/writing/composing? to whom? why? what is being conveyed? and how is it being conveyed?
Acknowledging the dirth of recent works addressing the theory of rhetoric, this book aims to fill the existing theoretical gap and at the same time move the field of language/literature studies forward into new territory. It provides the keynote theoretical guide for a generation of teachers, teacher educators and researchers in the fields of English as a subject; English as a second, foreign or additional language; and language study in general.
Richard Andrews is Professor in English and International Coordinator at the Institute of Education, London; and Visiting Professor in English Education at the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development, New York University. He is chair of the Institute of Education’s working group on China. He served on the English Board of the UK government’s Department of Children, Schools and Families from 2006 to 2009, and has recently been appointed to the Board of the English Subject Centre– the body that supports the teaching of English in universities in the UK.
