Pragma-Dialectic Approach To Argument
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. The art of argument ranges from formal debates through careful scholarly discussion to heated encounters, fierce arguments and quarrels. What likelihood is there that the enormous range of argumentation can be served, identified, or modeled by one theory. Do the extremes -- or even the edges � of the center have enough in common to be considered together? Not likely, inasmuch as the form of argument can differ just as significantly as the people involved. Discord among human beings is a normal, daily event at all stages of life; however, it is the manner
in which such antagonism is addressed that determines how effective the outcome will ultimately be. The writer discusses argumentation as it relates to van Eemeren and Grootendorst's pragma-dialectic theory. Bibliography lists

(5 pp) In this new century, and through part of the
last one. we have been told that nothing occurs
without a reason. Such is the concept with the
label "radical social consciousness," whether this
is an accurate assumption will be examined through
the work of three very different authors Anne Frank,
Dee Brown and Marleen Gorris. By examining these
works we will be able to decide whether we agree
with this thought, readily or wisely know that
there are no absolutes.

Saving Face & Facework in Asian Cultures
