Description

Explore the intersection of performance and linguistics with Language and Power on the Rhetorical Stage. Part of the Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication series, this work uses a fusion of narrative and analysis to examine how theater functions as a site for critical discourse analysis. By observing how language is used on stage, readers can see how micro-instances of iniquitous language have been used historically to oppress and deny equal rights to marginalized groups. Drawing from the rhetorical plays of Aristophanes, the author presents the stage as a space to observe and feel 20th-century rhetorical theories of the body. The text applies critical discourse analysis and Judith Butler's theories to provide a deep look at how power operates through speech and performance. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in performing arts, rhetoric, and the political impact of language.
