Rezensionen

"Like a good parallel construction, which students will learn about in this book, Rhetorical Public Speaking admirably balances two important objectives. While it makes the rhetorical tradition accessible to modern students, it also demonstrates the enduring practical value of the liberal arts for the digital age. From classical speech genres to new media situations, the text illustrates the perennial adaptability of a rhetorical education." - John J. Jasso, Ave Maria University, USA

"Rhetorical Public Speaking is simply the best public speaking textbook I have ever read. It is sufficiently comprehensive without being overwhelming or needlessly technical. It uses a range of examples and explanations more relevant to contemporary college students than those found in other books. Rhetorical Public Speaking is the first textbook of its kind that I would enthusiastically recommend, and I expect it to become one of the most widely used public speaking textbooks at the college level for many years to come." - Calum Matheson, University of Pittsburgh, USA

"Simultaneously an incisive public speaking handbook and a cogent primer on the rhetorical tradition, this lively and thoughtful text teaches students not only how to speak, but why we speak. It is a manual for teaching students to become both artistic producers of and thoughtful, engaged audiences for public discourse in an ever-shifting media environment. " - Nicholas L. Stefanski, Alfred State College, USA

Praise for the third edition:

"A thoughtful, methodical and inspiring handbook that shows students how to become engaged citizens by means of the spoken word, that is, eloquent transgressors of silence and public apathy." - John Poulakos, University of Pittsburgh, USA
