Perspectiva retórica de la Antropología
Abstract
This essay on the relationship between rhetoric studies and anthropology falls in three parts. In a first moment, the author offers reflections on the relationship between the two fields, highlighting contentious points as well as the rhetoric of social science positivism. In the second instance, he proposes to return to a rhetorical definition of “figure,” and to look back onto rhetorical elements in the French anthropological tradition. In a third part he presents a case study, that of perpetrators of human rights abuses in South Africa, and how rhetorical analysis proceeds to treat this “field situation”.Downloads
