ABSTRACT This essay attempts to de-link the study of the Rigveda from both colonial philology and ongoing Hindu nationalist projects. It brings the rhetoric of form, especially as theorized by Kenneth Burke, to open up space for critics and commentators with a broader range of relationships to Brahmanical liturgy. To further the goal of delinking, it first narrows the scope of analysis to dialogue hymns, which are reminiscent of debates found within Buddhist conversion narratives rendered in versified Sanskrit. It then centers formal linguistic figures that these two layers of Sanskrit poetry have in common. Finally, conceptualizing these formal devices, it uses analytic categories from a South Asian critical tradition (alaṃkāraśāstra). Framed and constrained in this manner and applied to the (ex-)lovers’ quarrel of Purūravas and Urvaśī (in R.V. 10.95), a Burkean analysis reveals an exchange that both satisfies the “appetites” and allays the concerns of conservative audiences, who otherwise might fear that their wives could follow Urvaśī’s example and happily part with their wedded partners-in-sacrifice.
摘要本文试图将《梨俱吠陀》的研究与殖民地文献学和正在进行的印度教民族主义项目脱钩。它带来了形式修辞,尤其是肯尼斯·伯克的理论,为与婆罗门礼仪有更广泛关系的评论家和评论家开辟了空间。为了进一步实现脱钩的目标,它首先将分析范围缩小到对话赞美诗,这让人想起在用梵文翻译的佛教皈依叙事中发现的争论。然后,它以这两层梵语诗歌的共同点为中心。最后,将这些形式手段概念化,它使用了南亚批判传统的分析范畴(alaṃkāraśāstra)。以这种方式构建和约束,并应用于Purúravas和Urvaśī(R.V.10.95)的(前)恋人争吵,Burkean的分析揭示了一种既满足“欲望”又减轻保守观众担忧的交流,否则保守观众可能会担心他们的妻子会效仿Urvaßā,以牺牲的方式愉快地与已婚伴侣分手。

Rhetorical Silence and Republican Virtue in Early-American Public Discourse: The Case of James Madison’s “Notes on the Federal Convention” 早期美国公共话语中的修辞沉默与共和美德——以詹姆斯·麦迪逊的《联邦会议纪要》为例

ABSTRACT This essay examines the role of “rhetorical silence” as a part of the theorizing about character in the early American republic. The case study concerns James Madison’s deliberate and continuous rhetorical silences about the comprehensive notes he took at the Federal Convention in Philadelphia in 1787. I argue that Madison’s rhetorical silences regarding his notes illustrate the shifting discourses of republican and liberal notions of virtue in the early-national period of the American republic.
摘要本文考察了“修辞沉默”在美国共和早期人物理论化中的作用。这个案例研究涉及詹姆斯·麦迪逊(James Madison)对他1787年在费城联邦会议上做的全面笔记故意和持续的修辞沉默。我认为,麦迪逊对他的笔记的修辞沉默说明了在美国共和国的早期,共和主义和自由主义美德观念的话语转变。

Foiling Kamesian Belletristic Theory in Mid-Eighteenth-Century Scotland 18世纪中叶苏格兰对卡米西亚贝勒学理论的挫败
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.1080/15362426.2019.1569416

ABSTRACT Two disciplinary stories told in mid-eighteenth-century Scotland omit an important plotline. One story is that university teaching of rhetoric transformed into belletristic criticism; another is that ideology and culture transformed to reorient rhetorical theorizing toward everyday practices by non-elites. Untold is a story of how familiar protagonists, such as Hugh Blair, clashed with antagonists, such as John Witherspoon, in the Church of Scotland. Telling that story from the antagonists’ perspectives shows that they reflected on how rhetoric ought to be practiced to manage disagreement in a democratic institution and used what amounted to Kamesian belletrism as a foil.
两个发生在18世纪中叶苏格兰的纪律故事忽略了一个重要的情节。一种说法是大学修辞学教学转变为文学批评;另一种是意识形态和文化的转变,将修辞理论重新定位于非精英的日常实践。《不为人知》讲述了像休·布莱尔这样熟悉的主人公如何在苏格兰教会与约翰·威瑟斯彭这样的对手发生冲突。从对手的角度讲述这个故事表明,他们反思了在民主制度中应该如何运用修辞来管理分歧,并使用了相当于卡梅斯式的花言巧语作为陪衬。

Isocrates’ Panphilosophicus: Reading the Panathenaicus as a Rapprochement with Academic Philosophy Isocrates的泛哲学:解读《泛哲学》与学术哲学的契合
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.1080/15362426.2019.1569414
John J. Jasso
ABSTRACT The Panathenaicus is often referred to as one of the weakest and most enigmatic of Isocrates’ orations. It has been criticized for lacking innovation, coherence, and rhetorical style. Furthermore, it concludes with a curious use of dialogue otherwise foreign to Isocrates. In this article, I read the dialogue alongside the apparently digressive proemium and argue not only for the speech’s internal unity, but for its creativity and intellectual complexity. I demonstrate how the Panthenaicus connects Isocrates’ Panhellenic project with his civic-minded paideia in a way that simultaneously identifies Academic philosophy and attempts to subordinate it to Isocratean philosophia.
《泛athenaicus》通常被认为是伊索克拉底演讲中最弱、最神秘的演讲之一。它因缺乏创新、连贯性和修辞风格而受到批评。此外,它结束了一个奇怪的使用对话,否则外国的伊索克拉底。在这篇文章中,我一边读着这段对话,一边读着明显离题的溢价,不仅为这篇演讲的内在统一性辩护,还为它的创造性和智力复杂性辩护。我展示了《泛希腊论》是如何将伊索克拉底的泛希腊计划与他的公民意识的paideia联系起来的,以一种同时识别学院派哲学并试图将其从属于伊索克拉底哲学的方式。

The Fourth Master Trope, Antithesis 第四尊大师奖杯,对偶
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.1080/15362426.2019.1569412
R. Harris
ABSTRACT The Four Master Tropes—metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche, and irony—are a significant theme in the history of rhetoric, but this grouping is wrong in fundamental ways—irony is not a trope at all properly understood, and the bulk of the arguments in this tradition suggest, along with a few new ones of my own, that the fourth Master Trope should be antithesis.
四大修辞大师——隐喻、转喻、提喻和反讽——是修辞学史上的一个重要主题,但这种分组在根本上是错误的——反讽根本不是一种被正确理解的修辞,而这一传统中的大部分论点,以及我自己的一些新论点都表明,第四大修辞大师应该是对喻。

Dialoging with Bigger Thomas: A Reception History of Richard Wright’s Native Son 与比格·托马斯的对话:理查德·赖特土著儿子的接受史
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.1080/15362426.2019.1569422

ABSTRACT This essay develops a reception history of the Communist Party of the USA’s (CPUSA) responses to Richard Wright’s Native Son. Drawing on what Fiona Paton calls “cultural stylistics,” I argue that the voices residing in Native Son itself participated in the broader interpretive politics surrounding the novel. Specifically, Wright’s primary character, Bigger Thomas, functioned as a disruptive performance of blackness that revealed the limitations of communist orthodoxy for bringing expression to black subjectivity. I conclude by reflecting on the ways cultural stylistics poses salient ethical challenges to all of us who engage in the labor of critique.
摘要本文论述了美国共产党对理查德·赖特《土生子》的回应。根据Fiona·巴顿所说的“文化文体学”,我认为《土生子》中的声音本身参与了围绕小说的更广泛的解释政治。具体来说,赖特的主要角色比格·托马斯是黑人的颠覆性表演,揭示了共产主义正统观念在表达黑人主体性方面的局限性。最后,我反思了文化文体学如何对我们所有从事批判工作的人提出突出的道德挑战。

Darrel Wanzer-Serrano’s The New York Young Lords and the Struggle for Liberation: Theoretical Contributions 塞拉诺的《纽约青年贵族与解放斗争》:理论贡献
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2018-09-02 DOI: 10.1080/15362426.2018.1526549
Kent A. Ono
In his book, The New York Young Lords and the Struggle for Liberation, Professor Darrel Wanzer-Serrano makes several important contributions to rhetorical, communication, and Latinx, race and ethnic studies, and socialmovements scholarship. Among those contributions is his detailed historical study of the Young Lords as a social-movement group, which had been, until his study, barely (if at all) mentioned in communication literature. Additionally, his study of the Puerto Rican diaspora, specifically Nuyorican culture, identity, and politics within communication literature, is groundbreaking. And, his thorough, detailed, meticulous historical study of the Young Lords’ rhetoric provides a model of contemporary rhetorical scholarship that should be read and then modeled. The contribution I wish to focus on for this commentary is his theoretical contribution to rhetorical scholarship. Work within the field has studied colonialism through critiques of rhetorics of colonialism (Endres; Parameswaran; Stevens; Stuckey and Murphy) and empire (Abbott; Hartnett and Mercieca; Owen and Ehrenhaus; Perez; Pollini; Sandoval; Spurr), postcolonial critique (Dora; Hegde; Gajjala; Hasian; Jarratt; Kavoori; Kelly; Olson and Worsham; Parameswaran; Schwartz-DuPre; Shome; Wang), and neocolonial critique (Ayotte and Husain; Black; Buescher; Kuswa and Ayotte; McKinnon; Ono; Ranachan and Parmett; Rogers; Vats and Nishime) lenses. Moreover, critiques of colonialism have often been approached as what McKerrow calls “critiques of domination.” Wanzer-Serrano’s book offers a theory of rhetoric and decolonization, distinguished from postcolonial scholarship. Not only does WanzerSerrano offer a theory of decoloniality, but he also suggests that the Young Lords challenged decolonization in important ways. He argues, “In this book, I make the case that the New York Young Lords’ enactment of differential consciousness pushes the boundaries of decolonial theory. Through critical performances of border thinking, epistemic disobedience, and delinking, the Young Lords crafted a decolonial praxis that resisted ideological oversimplification and generated new possibilities and spaces for activism in their immediate contexts and beyond” (7).
Darrel Wanzer Serrano教授在其著作《纽约青年贵族与解放斗争》中,对修辞、传播和拉丁裔、种族和民族研究以及社会运动学术做出了几项重要贡献。在这些贡献中,他对青年贵族作为一个社会运动团体进行了详细的历史研究,在他的研究之前,这在传播文学中几乎没有(如果有的话)被提及。此外,他对波多黎各侨民的研究,特别是传播文学中的纽约里文化、身份和政治,具有开创性意义。而且,他对年轻贵族修辞学的全面、详细、细致的历史研究为当代修辞学提供了一个应该阅读然后模仿的模式。我想在这篇评论中重点关注的是他对修辞学的理论贡献。该领域的工作通过对殖民主义修辞的批评来研究殖民主义(Endres;Parameswaran;Stevens;Stuckey和Murphy)和帝国主义(Abbott;Hartnett和Mercieca;Owen和Ehrenhaus;Perez;Pollini;Sandoval;Spurr),后殖民主义批评(Dora;Hegde;Gajjala;Hasian;Jarratt;Kavoori;Kelly;Olson和Worsham;Parameswalan;Schwartz DuPre;Shome;Wang),和新殖民主义批判(阿约特和侯赛因;布莱克;布舍尔;库斯瓦和阿约特;麦金农;小野;拉纳坎和帕米特;罗杰斯;瓦茨和尼西姆)镜头。此外,对殖民主义的批评经常被视为McKerrow所说的“对统治的批评”。Wanzer Serrano的书提供了一种修辞和非殖民化理论,与后殖民学术不同。WanzerSerrano不仅提出了非殖民化理论,而且他还认为年轻贵族在重要方面挑战了非殖民化。他认为,“在这本书中,我提出了一个观点,即纽约青年贵族对差异意识的形成突破了非殖民化理论的界限。通过对边界思维、认识上的不服从和脱钩的批判性表现,青年贵族们制定了一种非殖民化实践,抵制意识形态的过于简单化,并在他们的时代为激进主义创造了新的可能性和空间ate上下文及其他内容”(7)。

Advancing a Decolonial Rhetoric 推进非殖民化修辞

Dominant stories and narratives are violent: They disregard and erase the humanity of so much of the world, with some of us emerging as the dis/figured and inept beings that can, and, apparently, should, be used; our bodies, our spirits, and our lives too easily made into the waste of the world. That making of humans into non-humans happens in all kinds of material ways and through a seemingly never-ending spate of cultural and political practices—colonial histories, immigration policies, labor practices, control of land, extermination—all of which are not just cultural and political, but instead are fundamentally and materially discursive. It is to this force of dominance that Darrel Wanzer-Serrano’s book, The New York Young Lords and the Struggle for Liberation, intervenes. Advancing a decolonial rhetoric, Wanzer-Serrano takes rhetorical scholars to the complexities of violent narratives and the force of community resistance in his astute assessment of the New York Young Lords and their refusals to submit. His compelling account of the violent narratives surrounding Puerto Ricans makes this point quite clear: “Puerto Ricans were reduced in the popular imaginary and official histories to a caricature, a shell devoid of humanity, an image that was more a reflection of the attitudes of the colonizer than of the people themselves” (33). Given that dehumanized account, Wanzer-Serrano writes a book that asks and answers this compelling question: “Given a history of consciousness regarding Puerto Ricans that was ... thoroughly racist and colonialist, how ought we proceed?” (33). Across the book, the answers he offers assess how Puerto Ricans wrote their own histories and futures. At the same time, his larger response, if not your imperative, is dual, and it is this: love and listen. To be fair, Wanzer-Serrano names the book’s primary intervention like this:
占主导地位的故事和叙事都是暴力的:它们无视并抹去了世界上如此多的人性,我们中的一些人变成了残缺、无能的人,可以、显然也应该被利用;我们的身体,我们的精神,我们的生命太容易成为世界的废物。人类变成非人类的过程以各种各样的物质方式发生,并通过似乎永无止境的文化和政治实践——殖民历史、移民政策、劳工实践、土地控制、灭绝——所有这些都不仅仅是文化和政治,而是从根本上和物质上的话语。达雷尔·万泽-塞拉诺的书《纽约青年贵族与争取解放的斗争》正是对这种统治力量进行了干预。Wanzer-Serrano提出了一种非殖民化的修辞,在他对纽约青年贵族及其拒绝屈服的敏锐评估中,他将修辞学者带入了暴力叙事的复杂性和社区抵抗的力量。他对围绕波多黎各人的暴力叙述的令人信服的叙述使这一点非常清楚:“波多黎各人在流行的想象和官方历史中被贬低为一幅漫画,一个没有人性的外壳,一个更多地反映殖民者态度而不是人民本身的形象”(33)。考虑到这种非人性化的描述,万泽-塞拉诺写了一本书,提出并回答了这个令人信服的问题:“考虑到波多黎各人的意识历史……彻底的种族主义和殖民主义,我们该怎么做?”(33)。在书中,他给出的答案评估了波多黎各人如何书写自己的历史和未来。与此同时,他更大的回应,如果不是你的命令,是双重的,那就是:爱和倾听。公平地说,万泽-塞拉诺认为这本书的主要干预是这样的:
