The \"catastrophe to come\" is a more or less permanent spectral presence for many of its residents, evidence of which can be traced as far back as the city's founding in 1718. When it comes to memorialization of Katrina, the central question of this essay is: how does one analyze public memory of an event so thoroughly anticipated, indeed, whose historical anticipation is fundamental to the later memory of it? Rather than merely acting as the historical context within which public memory comes to be interpreted, this anticipation and the anxiety that marks its form figures directly into the reading of the later memory object itself. In this essay, I argue that the repeated narrativization of the Big One is an anxious rhetoric that prefigures post-Katrina memory objects through a process of melancholic rhetorical incorporation. I first engage the history of New Orleans and this anxiety, extrapolating my usage of anxiety and melancholy as rhetorical concepts along the way. Then, I tender a critical analysis that first reads two narratives of such destruction to describe memory's prefiguration and then turns symmetrically to two post-Katrina memory objects to demonstrate the work of incorporation in the production of memory objects.","PeriodicalId":45013,"journal":{"name":"Rhetoric & Public Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46399526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A clear majority of the voting public supports a number of different proposals to regulate access to firearms and the type of firearms available for sale. According to a May 2019 Quinnipiac University poll, nearly three-quarters of Americans say that more needs to be done to address gun violence; 94 percent support universal background checks for those purchasing firearms; and 63 percent support a nationwide ban on the sale of assault weapons. However, there seems to be little sign of any progress with these issues. In fact, there is even evidence from a Pew Research Center study published in March 2018 that gun laws have been loosened in the years since the mass murder of 20 children and six teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. In After Gun Violence, Craig Rood leverages scholarship on public memory to help explain the general gridlock that marks contemporary discourse about guns and gun control in the United States. Putting public memory in conversation with deliberation invites an analysis that cuts both ways: “First, public deliberation shapes public memory . . . Second, public memory shapes public deliberation” (24). A product of rhetoric itself, public memory influences the choices we make when deciding what is worth talking about; what meanings we make about what is happening now; and what courses of action are warranted, feasible, and virtuous. These acts will undoubtedly, although partially, be remembered when future interlocutors find themselves pressed to make meaning about what is happening in their own time. Rood explains the effectiveness of the gun lobby in resisting legal reform largely in terms of its highly selective remembrance of the Founding","PeriodicalId":45013,"journal":{"name":"Rhetoric & Public Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45368484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
