To ilustrate rhetorical approaches to texts in the social sciences, this essay takes Durkheim's Suicide, commonly thought to be a positivist exemplar, and reads it as moral discourse. The first part suggests the illumination given to the patterns of argumentation when the volume is treated as a response to a contemporary situation that could be shaped by persuasive discourse. The latter part presents the classic status of the volume as resultung from its use as a rhetorical authority to license some kinds of sociology
