The author’s approach privileges fallacy theory, especially the fallacy of .ad socordiam., in a key Congressional debate in 1789 and other forms of verbal manipulation in newspaper editorials during the War of 1812. He argues that in order to understand James Madison’s role in the evolution of a broad conception of freedom of speech, it is imperative to examine the nature of the verbal attacks targeted at him. These attacks are documented, analyzed with the concept of aggravated impoliteness, and used to demonstrate that it was Madison’s toleration of criticism, even in wartime, that provided a foundation for a broad conception of freedom of speech. This book will be of interest to both scholars and lay readers with an interest in the application of discourse analysis and historical pragmatics to political debates, argumentation theoryand fallacy theory, and the evolution of the concept of freedom of speech in the early years of the United States. | | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | | 关键词 | fallacy theory; diachronic discourse analysis; ad socordiam; historical pragmatics; James Madison; Alexan | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-67877-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-67877-7 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerl |
