RSA Remote: Where in the World Is Rhetoric?

[Rhetoric Society of America organiserer et digitalt seminar om retorikken sett fra ulike land, herunder Skandinavia/Danmark, representert ved Lisa Villadsen. Møtet krever registrering; se “mer info”]

This session will feature a global panel of rhetoricians who will offer insights into the disciplinary forms rhetoric takes in locations outside of the United States and chart the career landscape outside of US academia. We welcome perspectives from all locations, including and especially folks who work at institutions in the so-called “global South.” Panelists will be invited to reflect on how they approach their scholarship and how RSA members might situate themselves in a challenging global academic job market. The goal of this panel is to help RSA members expand their conceptual and geographical horizons.
