2. New Course for Fall 2016!
What Can Rhetoric Teach Us
About the 2016 U.S.
Presiden<al Elec<on?
Professor Scot Barne9
In this course we will explore how concepts from rhetoric can help us understand the 2016 PresidenAal ElecAon.
Although the word “rhetoric” someAmes refers to empty or decepAve speech, for centuries rhetoric was a highly
respected course of study that taught speakers and writers how to communicate effecAvely on mulAple topics
and in various situaAons. In this course, then, we will move back and forth between classical understandings of
rhetoric and the current presidenAal campaign. Along with websites, speeches, and arAcles on the presidenAal
campaign, we will read primary and secondary texts in classical rhetoric, scholarly arAcles on presidenAal rhetoric,
and past examples of presidenAal speeches and debates.
