The trick is to occupy the commonplace of politics and make it the persuader’s own turf. ]]> 2017-03-10 13:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159252977 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253169 Refutation: stating your opponents position and then shooting it down ]]> 2017-03-10 13:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253169 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253285 Cicero's narration-who, what, when, where, how, why?]]> 2017-03-10 13:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253285 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253410 If we had a rhetorical population then politics could no longer survive as tribes attacking one another, but would instead have to relearn the rhetorical techniques of the past.]]> 2017-03-10 13:23:04 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253410 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253448 Public opinion is democracy's ultimate boss.]]> 2017-03-10 13:23:14 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253448 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253582 Metanoia- a self figure, which corrects an earlier phrase to make a strong point.]]> 2017-03-10 13:23:45 UTC https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253582 https://padlet.com/plara1/o4idz8gvsmo6/wish/159253592 "Where there is much desire to learn, there of necessity will be much arguing… for opinion in good men is but knowledge in the making."
