Rhetorics of Names and Naming Paperback / softback
Edited by Star Medzerian Vanguri
Part of the Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication series
Paperback / softback
Description
This volume takes up rhetorical approaches to our primarily linguistic understanding of how names work, considering how theories of materiality in rhetoric enrich conceptions of the name as word or symbol and help explain the processes of name bestowal, accumulation, loss, and theft.
Contributors theorize the formation, modification, and recontexualization of names as a result of technological and cultural change, and consider the ways in which naming influences identity and affects/grants power.
