METHODOLOGICAL WORKSHOP ON RHETORICAL CRITICISM

LUBLIN, MAY 22, 2019

​

We are very happy to announce the pre-conference methodological workshop on rhetorical criticism organized by the Polish Rhetoric Society in Lublin, Poland. We are even more excited to call our meeting international since there are 7 participants from Poland and 2 from USA and Ukraine respectively. To emphasize the versatile character of the rhetorical studies, apart from the Ph.D. students we have invited three undergraduate students from the Applied Rhetoric Department at John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin. We hope that our initiative will foster new thinking towards the role of rhetorical perspective in research among the young generation of scholars. 

 

We are pleased to announce our special guest - Professor Kris Rutten form Ghent University in Belgium, the President of the Rhetoric Society of Europe, who will deliver a talk entitled:

 

Rhetorical Criticism as a Methodological Framework  

 

His presentation will address the themes which the participants currently explore in their projects. He will be joined by other academics, the representatives of the Polish Rhetoric Society.

 

We hope this workshop will offer you a great opportunity to present your work to a panel of experts and to your young colleagues who share the same interests in persuasive discourses alongside the space to discuss and debate the role of rhetorical criticism in contemporary research endeavors. We also put a great emphasis on a networking potential of our meeting, which we hope will result in creating a vibrant community of young rhetorical scholars across Europe and the United States.

​

 

The meeting will take place on May 22, at 5 p.m. at Maria Curie-SkÅ‚odowska University in Lublin, New Humanities Building, Pl. Marii Curie-SkÅ‚odowskiej 4a, Room 521 (5th floor).
