Bøker av Robert Cockcroft

Combining theory with practice, this updated third edition suggests ways of actively enhancing the persuasive skills of a person, through insights gained from analysing ancient and modern rhetoric. Included are structured practical examples and suggestions for further reading to guide the student through the subject.

This book will mediate between critics, readers, the author and the original audience, using the 'New Rhetoric' to open fresh perspectives on writers as diverse as Christopher Marlowe, Lucy Hutchinson and Margaret Cavendish.
