Web-Based Memorializing After September 11
Web-based memorializing is an emerging set of social practices mediated by computer networks, through which digital objects, structures, and spaces of commemoration are produced. Based on in-depth analysis of eight Web sites produced to memorialize victims of the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001, we demonstrate that Web-based memorializing bears a diverse array of characteristics, only some of which are consistent with…
Online Ethos
As recently as 5 years ago, Web users were being advised to gauge Web site credibility by examining author credentials and expertise. Recent research shows, however, that users instead rely on a combination of factors such as design look, site structure, and usefulness of information when they judge Web sites. This article argues that this reliance on distributed credibility may be appropriate in a Web environment where authorship, credentials, a…
Masculinizing the feminine
This essay uses rhetorical critical methods to examine how persuasive appeals to women to come on line have marginalized and excluded some women even as they invited them to become involved. Authors of many trade books and gateway web sites have interpellated women using such masculinized gender traits as aggressiveness, opportunism, and technical proficiency. They have tacitly devalued such traits as hesitancy, fear, and technological ignorance.…
Appearance or reality? Political parody on the web in campaign ‘96
The World Wide Web and other forms of Internet communication provide a new venue for political discourse. The present study surveyed Web postings relevant to the 1996 presidential race between Bill Clinton and Bob Dole. It identified two types of sites. Nonparodic or serious sites emulated traditional news such as is found in newspapers, periodicals, and television news documentaries. Parodic sites sought to entertain rather than inform the reade…

Judgment, probability, and Aristotle's rhetoric
Aristotle discussed various forms of rationality in the Organon and other works. Aristotle held that in making judgments, the soul used five means— intelligence, episteme (scientific knowledge), sophia (theoretical wisdom), techne (art), and phronesis (practical wisdom). The nature of rhetoric as a techne employed in persuasion and grounded in probabilities distinguishes it from discourse in natural science, metaphysics, and philosophy. Aristotle…
The narrative paradigm
The narrative paradigm, recently proposed as a model for rhetorical criticism, is problematic because of internal contradictions and inconsistencies. In the paradigm, the status of traditional rationality and the extent to which it is to be applied are unclear. The conditions in which the universal audience, the particular audience, and the critic are to serve as the source for critical judgment are also unclear. When we have only the immanent fa…
The old rhetoric vs. the new rhetoric
Between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in France, a major controversy occurred among literary and rhetorical critics concerning the nature and purposes of eloquence and the value of rhetorical education. The great classical critics—Boileau, Rapin, and Fénelon—defended rhetoric as traditionally taught and studied. They were opposed by the moderns—Fontenelle, Perrault, and the Port Royalists—who repudiated classical rhetoric and sought to…
Structuralism vs. phenomenology
This study examines the implications of the structuralist, phe‐nomenological, and constructivist views of discourse and applies them to rhetorical criticism. Structuralist criticism analyzes the elements of the text and their interrelationships, whereas phe‐nomenological criticism stresses the influence of the situation on discourse. Constructivist criticism incorporates both methods and assumes a structural‐developmental perspective, focusing on…
Fénelon's recommendations to the French academy concerning rhetoric
The rhetorical theory set forth in Fénelon's Letter to the Academy (1716) was a protest against seventeenth century rhetorical practices. Fénelon rejected the rigid rules of arrangement characteristic of Ramistic rhetoric and instead advocated organization according to the demands of the subject. He emphasized substance and content rather than form, thereby criticizing the overreliance on tropes and figures predominant in seventeenth century orat…
Assertiveness as a Communication Construct
Previous research in assertiveness has often failed to differentiate the behaviors to be subsumed within the construct. The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to isolate and define the subconstructs of assertiveness as they emerged from the structure of two assertive inventories—the Rathus Assertiveness Schedule and the College Self Expression Scale; (2) to evaluate assertiveness as a communication construct by examining it in the framework o…
