Abstract

In the spirit of our Burkean Parlor, I hope that readers will see my remarks as extending the conversation that was initiated by Ryan Skinnell’s excellent essay “Bad People Speaking Effectively in the History of Rhetoric.” His essay appeared in “Octalog IV: The Politics of Rhetorical Studies in 2021” (Rhetoric Review 40.4: 337-40). Skinnell’s insightful statement did what all such Octalog essays seek to do: stimulate the reader to think about the rhetorical topic. My thoughts on this topic take a somewhat different approach but, I hope, one that will provide readers with another perspective for even further discussion. My thanks to Ryan Skinnell for his engaging contribution and Editor Elise V. Hurley for her support.

本着我们伯克肯会客室的精神，我希望读者能把我的评论看作是对瑞安·斯金奈尔的优秀文章《修辞学史上的坏人有效说话》所引发的对话的延伸。论文发表于《八篇四:2021年修辞研究的政治》(修辞评论40.4:337-40)。斯金奈尔富有洞察力的陈述达到了所有八进制文章的目的:激发读者对修辞主题的思考。我对这个话题的看法有些不同，但我希望，这将为读者提供进一步讨论的另一种视角。我要感谢Ryan skinner所做的贡献以及Elise V. Hurley编辑的支持。
