Accordo e persona nell’argomentazione: il caso dell’ad hominem.
2012
Is the ad hominem argument a fallacy or not? In this paper I will try to demonstrate that an ad hominem is not intrinsically fallacious and that the speaker’s personal convictions, commitments and actions are deeply involved in every argument. This paper starts with a comparison between dialectical and rhetorical approaches to the argumentation, and, in particular, to the agreement. Briefly: from a dialectical standpoint, the argumentation is aimed at resolving a difference of opinion or a disagreement. On the other hand, from the rhetorical perspective argumentation also often deals with dialogues of the deaf, with incommensurable points of view. The agreement is a key concept of Perelman’…
Speech technology as an experimental science: towards the comparative dynamics of Sprechkunde in Germany and Russia in the late nineteenth to early t…
2016
The article examines various resonances of the “speech technology” (Sprechkunde) current in German and Russian-Soviet context of 1900–1920s. It contains first of all a brief history of the techniques of speech in Germany, an inquiry into some psychophysical sources of the “speech technology” and a survey of the contribution of German “new rhetoric” to this movement. The Russian counterparts of this trend include the Institute of the Living Word (Institut živogo slova, 1918–1923), some Russian formalists, the scenic speech specialists and the theatre pedagogues. The conclusion summarises the historical significance of “speech technology” and its common features in Germany and Russia. It turn…
Nouvelle rhétorique et formation du citoyen : perspectives sur l’enseignement du discours à partir d’une université d’été
2023
Il est maintenant clairement établi que le modèle rhétorique fournit une réponse pertinente aux questionnements sur les méthodes et sur les contenus d’une formation à la citoyenneté en démocratie. En Europe toutefois, ce modèle rencontre encore des difficultés pour être reconnu comme une formation au discours légitime. À partir de l’expérience d’une université d’été intitulée « Citoyenneté européenne et argumentation rhétorique : le cas du changement climatique », nous répondons aux principales critiques adressées au modèle rhétorique et montrons comment il peut être utilisé, aujourd’hui, pour développer l’esprit critique et les compétences citoyennes. Even though it is now clearly establis…
L’animale insaturo: antropologia filosofica e retorica
2013
In the macro-area of philosophical anthropology and philosophy of language we can find an important relationship between philosophical anthropology and rhetoric. Starting from the analysis of Blumenberg’s essay An Anthropological Approach to the Contemporary Significance of Rhetoric, the paper will focus on the relation between rhetoric and evidence, on the status of shared assumptions that form the basis of argumentation and on the role of pistis in human nature. I will also try to propose a new concept of poor humanity: man is that animal whose poverty is tied to the biological need to believe in the inherited background that we have because we belong to a community which is bound togethe…
