PWR 2GMG: Writing & Rhetoric 2: If Words Were Enough: Poetics and Rhetoric

What does it mean to be rhetorically ¿right¿? How do we know if we¿ve found the ¿right¿ words, images, examples? In this course, we will study the writings and reflections of poets as they wrestle with this question of craft and what we can achieve through dedication, inspiration, imitation. Our goal will be to become more skilled rhetoricians ourselves by asking: What is possible with language, image, sound¿what can poetics teach us about rhetoric? How much can communication achieve, whether greatness or agreement, social change or political justice. For course videos and full descriptions, see https://vcapwr-catalog.stanford.edu.

PWR 2HLA: Writing & Rhetoric 2: Communicating Your Research: Meaningful Academic Writing and Speaking

Prerequisite: PWR 1. How do you present complex research or specialized knowledge in a way that makes sense and moves audiences to see the value of your work? In this class, we will examine the ways effective communicators engage audiences and illuminate their ideas in a variety of contexts, including academic journals, popular publications, and multimedia presentations. We'll pay attention to the texts' argumentative structure, and the use of narrative, metaphor, and visualization to explain the unfamiliar. We will also identify the ways in which the speaker's voice and body are sources of persuasion and meaning. As you pursue a research project on meaningful communication, you will develop your own toolkit for presenting your expertise in engaging ways.
