Teaching Burke: Kenneth Burke and the Rhetoric of Ascent.
Quinn, Arthur
Rhetoric Society Quarterly, v25 p231-36 1995
Advises that in teaching Kenneth Burke it is important that students understand that his strength is not what Richard Rorty calls systematic reasoning but rather edification. Shows how Burke, like Thomas Carlyle, is prophet or sage who sketches out a Romantic world view. (TB)
