Culture, Rhetoric and the Unthinkable

Stephen Tyler


This presentation consists of five topics:

  1. Why Rhetoric? The way things are, a brief intimation of the world context that induces rhetoric.
  2. Which rhetoric for us? Some possible sources and themes that may be useful for us.
  3. Some rhetorical turns on ethos, pathos, and logos.
  4. Autopoeisis--leaps and phases in the emergence of subjects and objects.
  5. Rebus and Rhymes, the secret connections of things in the mind.
