Richard Weaver's Life Story
ISBN: 9781535810425 / Angielski / Miękka / 1913 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Excerpt from Richard Weaver's Life Story: Edited by James Paterson
When I looked through the materials entrusted to me, I was greatly delighted at the discovery that it would be possible for me to allow Weaver himself, in his own way, to tell the larger part of his life-story. I noticed, however, that if I adopted that plan, it would take me over the same ground that Mr. R. C. Morgan, of The Christian, has travelled over in his "Life of Richard Weaver." But I must either do that, or issue a Life that was rather a supplement to Mr. Morgan's than an attempt at a complete Life. I resolved to...

The Ethics of Rhetoric
ISBN: 9780961180027 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Weaver's Ethics of Rhetoric, originally published in 1953, has been called his most important statement on the ethical and cultural role of rhetoric. A strong advocate of cultural conservatism, Weaver (1910-1953) argued strongly for the role of liberal studies in the face of what he saw as the encroachments of modern scientific and technological forces in society. He was particularly opposed to sociology. In rhetoric he drew many of his ideas from Plato, especially his Phaedrus. As a result, all the main strands of Weaver's thought can be seen in this volume, beginning with his essay on the...
