This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher Plato's dialogue, the Gorgias.

This lecture focuses specifically on a set of points that Socrates makes in his conversation with Gorgias, outlining a common dynamic that tends to produce anger and even lead to abusive language between people who are discussing or exploring a subject matter together. When subject matters or topics are difficult to define, people will accuse each other of being unclear or incorrect in what they say. It is easy for interlocutors to assume that the other person is arguing their position in bad faith, out of a desire to win, to be right, to dominate, rather than a desire to seek out and articulate the truth together.

Fake news, alternative facts, post truth&#8212terms all too familiar to anyone in U.S. political culture and concepts at the core of Dana L. Cloud&#8217s new book,Reality Bites,whichexplores truth claims in contemporary political rhetoric in the face of widespread skepticism regarding the utility, ethics, and viability of an empirical standard for political truths. Cloud observes how appeals to truth often assume&#8212mistakenly&#8212that it is a matter of simple representation of facts. However, since neither fact-checking nor &#8220truthiness&#8221 can respond meaningfully to this problem, she argues for arhetorical realism&#8212the idea that communicators can bring knowledge from particular perspectives and experiences into the domain of common sense.Through a series of case studies&#8212including the PolitiFact fact-checking project, the Planned Parenthood &#8220selling baby parts&#8221 scandal, the Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden cases, Neil DeGrasse Tyson&#8217sCosmos, the

In the twenty-first century there are two ways to study logic. The more recent approach is symbolic logic. The history of teaching logic since World War II, however, casts doubt on the idea that symbolic logic is best for a first logic course. Logic as a Liberal Art is designed as part of a minority approach, teaching logic in the &quotverbal&quot way, in the student's &quotnatural&quot language, the approach invented by Aristotle. On utilitarian grounds alone, this &quotverbal&quot approach is superior for a first course in logic, for the whole range of students. For millennia, this &quotverbal&quot approach to logic was taught in conjunction with grammar and rhetoric, christened the trivium. The decline in teaching grammar and rhetoric in American secondary schools has led Dr. Rollen Edward Houser to develop this book. The first part treats grammar, rhetoric, and the essential nature of logic. Those teachers who look down upon rhetoric are free, of course, to skip those lessons.

The beating of Rodney King, the killing of Amadou Diallo, and the LAPD Rampart Scandal: these events have been interpreted by the courts, the media and the public in dramatically conflicting ways. Critical Race Narratives examines what is at stake in these conflicts and, in so doing, rethinks racial strife in the United States as a highly-charged struggle over different methods of reading and writing. Focusing in particular on the practice and theorization of narrative strategies, Guti&#233rrez-Jones engages many of the most influential texts in the recent race debatesincluding The Bell Curve, America in Black and White, The Alchemy of Race and Rights, and The Mismeasure of Man. In the process, Critical Race Narratives pursues key questions posed by the texts as they work within, or against, disciplinary expectations: can critical engagements with narrative enable a more democratic dialogue regarding race? what promise does such experimentation hold for working through the traumatic

Book  To Be An American: Cultural Pluralism and the Rhetoric of Assimilation (Critical America Book 17)

READ NOW : https://slide.softebook.net/B00EIFPETA

The impetus behind California's Proposition 187 clearly reflects the growing anti-immigrant sentiment in this country. Many Americans regard today's new immigrants as not truly American, as somehow less committed to the ideals on which the country was founded. In clear, precise terms, Bill Ong Hing considers immigration in the context of the global economy, a sluggish national economy, and the hard facts about downsizing. Importantly, he also confronts the emphatic claims of immigrant supporters that immigrants do assimilate, take jobs that native workers don't want, and contribute more to the tax coffers than they take out of the system. A major contribution of Hing's book is its emphasis on such often-overlooked issues as the competition between immigrants and African Americans, inter-group tension, and ethnic separatism, issues constantly brushed aside both by immigrant rights groups and the anti-immigrant right. Drawing on Hing's work as a lawyer deeply involved in the day-to-day

This lecture discusses key ideas from the modern empiricist philosopher David Hume' Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding

It focuses specifically on his discussion in section 1 of the work, specifically the distinction Hume makes from the very first paragraph between two different modes of engaging in moral philosophy. One of these is what he calls "easy" and "obvious" philosophy, intended for the broad public, lacking rigor but suited for guiding the live of activity, business, and sociability.  The other is what he calls "abstruse", "abstract", or "accurate" (and sometimes "metaphysics"), does have much more rigor, but will always be less popular and pertains to us as reasonable beings.

Conversations with Society + Technology - Episode 1 - STSS and Rhetoric of Science - Fall 2024

In this episode of "The Trial Lawyer's Handbook," litigation attorney Dan Small explores the importance of rhetoric in courtroom communication. Although rhetoric has been less studied in recent times, it has enabled speakers to enhance the power and persuasiveness of their words since the ancient Greeks. Mr. Small discusses why key devices such as lists, anaphora and rhetorical questions remain vital methods for trial lawyers to effectively present evidence clearly and persuasively.
