Beschreibung
Conceptions of the law have long neglected a rhetorical perspective. Yet recent studies have revealed that since antiquity, rhetoric has helped shape legal theory and jurisprudence. Not only do rhetorical tropes define legal education, writing, argumentation, and discourse, but they also form the methodological and ideological foundation for the legal case. This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of legal rhetoric with references for further study.
