Ebook: Handbuch Gesprächsrhetorik

New Handbook Series

This work covers the full breadth of research on the rhetorical processes of social action for the purpose of communication. Unlike purely oratorical models of rhetoric, conversational rhetoric includes all modalities of mutual impact and problem solving in socio-communicative processes that employ linguistic signs. A focus is placed on the forms, structures, and functions of conversations in their various contexts.

• Systematically presents the nature of conversation as the center of human interaction
• Combines a survey perspective with in-depth exploration of specific aspects
• Uses an interdisciplinary approach
