Recenzja/Review: Barbara Konat, Emotional Appeals in Argumentation. From Rhetoric to Psychology and Artificial Intelligence. Cham: Springer, 2025.
Barbara Konat offers in Emotional Appeals in Argumentation an helpful synthesis of many years of research on emotional appeals in argumentation, notably the project "Computational Pathos", supported by the Polish National Science Centre, of which she was the principal investigator.Although the title unsurprisingly echoes, given the series in which the volume appears, the terminology of argumentation theory and of so-called fallacies of "appeals t…

Argument mapping: Towards an interdisciplinary descriptive model
This article introduces and advocates a model designed for mapping reasoning, with a primary focus on exhaustively describing the argumentative moves within a text in natural language. The study begins by analyzing the limitations of existing methodologies, including informal logic – the foundational framework for these maps – computational argumentation analysis, and textual linguistics. It then proposes an interdisciplinary functional approach …
Cartographier le raisonnement: Pour Un Modèle Descriptif Interdisciplinaire
L’article propose et défend un modèle de cartographie du raisonnement qui vise avant tout une description aussi exhaustive que possible des mouvements argumentatifs d’un texte en langue naturelle. Après avoir évoqué différentes impasses des approches existantes – la logique informelle, à l’origine de ces cartes, l’analyse computationnelle de l’argumentation et la linguistique du texte –, il est envisagé une approche fonctionnelle interdisciplinai…
Steve Oswald: Pragmatique et rhétorique
Chercher l’efficacité perlocutoire (faire adhérer à une thèse, faire acheter un produit, ...) sans que la vérité ou la morale ne jouent un rôle décisif constitue-t-elle ce que d’aucuns nomment une manipulation ? C’est précisément parce qu’il s’intéresse aux mécanismes de l’adhésion à des thèses que Steve Oswald a tissé des liens entre sciences cognitives et rhétorique autour de cette notion. En se fondant sur les théories de pragmatique cognitive…
Steve Oswald: Pragmatics and rhetoric
Does the search for perlocutionary effectiveness (getting people to agree with a claim, to buy a product, etc.) without truth or morality playing a decisive role constitute what some call manipulation? Precisely because he is interested in the mechanisms of persuasion, Steve Oswald has woven links between cognitive science and rhetoric around this notion. Drawing on theories of cognitive pragmatics and work in psychology, this researcher goes off…
When Evaluative Adjectives Prevent Contradiction in a Debate
This paper argues that some words are so highly charged with meaning by a community that they may prevent a discussion during which each participant is on an equal footing. These words are indeed either unanimously accepted or rejected. The presence of these adjectival groups pushes the antagonist to find rhetorical strategies to circumvent them. The main idea we want to develop is that some propositions are not easily debatable in context becaus…
Ethos and Pragmatics
Ethos, the speaker's image in speech is one of the three means of persuasion e stablished by Aristotle's Rhetoric and is often studied in a loose way. Many scholars develop lists of self-images (ethos of a leader, modesty ethos, etc.), but few explain how one arrives at these types of ethos. This is precisely what the inferential approach described here intends to do. Considering, like many discourse analysts, that ethos is consubstantial with sp…
Media discourse and pathos: Sketching a critical and integrationist approach – Greek and French headlines before the Greek referendum of 2015
This paper examines media discourse and emotions in discourse (pathos) during the week before the Greek Referendum of 2015. Drawing on the framework of Critical Discourse Analysis, we study the interrelation between macro-level (dominant) values and views, and the micro-level of media positioning, as retrieved from newspaper headlines. The headlines come from three Greek and two French newspapers of differing political, economic, and ideological …
