We will explore the international and intercultural dimensions of rhetoric in three ways. First, we'll study how culture--including race, ethnicity, and nationality--influences the process of rhetorical persuasion. Second, we'll study theories about and definitions of rhetoric that emerge from non-white and/or non-Western contexts, such as from US minority cultures, Latin America, and Asia. Third, along the way we'll study selected rhetorical texts produced by non-white and/or non-Western speakers.
