Rhetoric as Art and Science• Dialectical Nature
– Reality depends on symbols• Our reality is created by and rooted in and shaped
by our symbols• Example—Orwell’s 1984
– Reality is probable• A stream of truth and untruth with truth revealed in
conversation (Plato)• In the absence of such a dialogue evil results• Example—Nazi Germany and group think

Rhetoric as Art and Science Continued• Rhetoric is an Art
– Three parts to the Art• Theory—principles, statements , description that control
and predict a situation
• Model—pictures, examples, lessons
• Practice—do it again an again
– Trilogy of this Art• Rule bound—Dale Carnegie's or Toast Masters are
examples
• Rule less—anarchy or just talk, stream of consciousness
• Rule guided—Aristotle, speech text book
