Series Statement:
Routledge handbooks in linguistics
Content:
This handbook provides a wide-ranging, authoritative, and cutting-edge overview of language and persuasion. Featuring a range of international contributors, the handbook outlines the basic materials of linguistic persuasion - sound, words, syntax, and discourse - and the rhetorical basics that they enable, such as appeals, argument schemes, arrangement strategies, and accommodation devices. After a comprehensive introduction that brings together the elements of linguistics and the vectors of rhetoric, the handbook is divided into six parts. PartI covers the basic rhetorical appeals to character, the emotions, argument schemes, and types of issues that constitute persuasion. PartII covers the enduring effects of persuasive language, from humor to polarization, while a special group of chapters in PartIII examines figures of speech and their rhetorical uses. In Part IV, contributors focus on different fields and genres of argument as entry points for research into conventions of arguing. PartV examines the evolutionary and developmental roots of persuasive language, and PartVI highlights new computational methods of language analysis. This handbook is essential reading for those researching and studying persuasive language in the fields of linguistics, rhetoric, argumentation, communication, discourse studies, political science, psychology, digital studies, mass media, and journalism.
