Topics vary by section. Topics explore the long history of various forms of persuasive rhetoric, ranging from artful political speeches to political art, by examining how compelling sentences, speeches, essays, and other works of imaginative thinking in the rhetorical tradition are built on aesthetic categories such as sound, rhythm, image, and metaphor. Also explored is how the principles of rhetoric tradition are important in the interpretation, evaluation, and appreciation of visual and multi-modal rhetorical works that changed how people think. Repeatable for credit with different topic.
