Beschreibung:
Richard M. Weaver believed that "rhetoric at its truest seeks to perfect men by showing them better versions of themselves." Language is Sermonic offers eight of Weaver's best essays on the nature of traditional rhetoric and its role in shaping society. Arguing throughout the book against society's reverence for relativism--and the consequential disregard for real values--this philosophical idealist uses his southern background and classical education as a backdrop for his scrutiny of our misuse of language.
