Style in rhetorical criticism: The case of Martin Luther's vernacular sermons

Abstract

dc:description

Serious attention to style of the discourse analyzed remains a neglected feature of the tradition of rhetorical criticism. A survey of the literature reveals a fundamental neglect of style in both the theory and practice of rhetorical criticism. Application of stylistic matters to discourse has resulted in little which would help critics approach a text for analysis.
