Who's Writing?
Endnotes
My thanks to Scott Kopel for his technological expertise and unerring sense
of design. Without his talent and patience, my vision of and for this webtext
would not have materialized. Thanks also to Michael Neal for reassuring me
throughout that the vision was worth pursuing.
- See Fleckenstein (2005) for a re-reading of Aristotle's ethos
through a cybernetic lens, a process that yields cyberethos, a
robust frame for addressing issues associated with the cybernetic identities/realities
of the twenty-first century.
- See Prelli (2006) who also argues in his edited collection Rhetoric of Display that display, what I call spectacle in this webtext, is an essential characteristic of twenty-first century rhetoric.
- See Foucault (1970), The Order of Things, Chapter 1-2; contrast to Debord's (1994) concept of spectacle.
- See Poetics (1984) 1460a25—this is what makes a "likely impossibility"
more acceptable that an unlikely possibility.
- See Poetics (1984) 1460a25. Also, Rorty (1996) footnotes the similarity between Aristotle's
approach to rhetoric and to poetics, for he relies on his theory of action,
ethics, and mind to advise both tragedian and rhetorician, each of whom
can use this material—the realm of the philosopher—without either
becoming a philosopher (p. 27).
