A Rhetorician Ponders Technology; or, Why Kenneth Burke Never Owned a "Personal" Computer.
Keller, Dale S.
Electronic Journal of Communication/La Revue Electronique de Communication, v6 n1 1996
Considers the interaction between rhetoric and technology by perusing selected writings of Kenneth Burke. Contends that while Burke did not exactly express disdain for technology, he saw it as impacting on society in dangerous ways. Urges renewed commitment to the critical function which rhetoric provides as a safeguard in an increasingly technological society. (PA)
