Summary:
"This edited volume features essays derived from presentations delivered at the 15th Biennial Public Address Conference held at Syracuse University from September 29 to October 1, 2016, as well as additional material. The Conceit of Context explores the often invoked-indeed a central term in the history of rhetorical studies-but less often engaged concept of context. In this volume, we center the notion of context as the site of engagement, critique, and imagination, seeking to deepen the critical and political promise of context in the study of public discourse"-- Provided by publisher.
