The connection between rhetoric and hegemony leads us back to Kenneth Burke’s work on political critique and the subtle ways discourse shapes political consciousness. This lecture also looks at how Ernesto Laclau connects rhetoric and the theory of articulation; Joseph Nye’s work on soft power; Timothy Borchers’ discourse on the work of rhetorician Dana Cloud; and Robert Ivie’s thoughts on balancing the opposing notions of identification and division.
La connexion entre rhétorique et hégémonie nous ramène aux écrits de Kenneth Burke sur la critique politique et les façons subtiles dont le discours forme la conscience politique. Ce cours examine aussi : la manière dont Ernesto Laclau relie la rhétorique et et la théorie de l’articulation; le travail de Joseph Nye sur le soft power (« pouvoir de convaincre »); les réflexions de Timothy Borchers sur l’œuvre du rhétoricien Dana Cloud; et les pensées de Robert Ivie sur l’utilité d’équilibrer les notions opposées d’identification et de division.
