Sensory Rhetorics: Sensation, Persuasion, and the Politics of Feeling by Steph Ceraso, Jonathan W. StoneEnglish | January 20th, 2026 | ISBN: 0271101245 | 190 pages | True EPUB | 3.26 MB
As our divided political climate attests, rational deliberation has failed to persuade people to rally around issues of public health, race and gender-based violence, climate threats, and political demagoguery. In response, scholars are increasingly turning to sensation for new frameworks to understand our situated, bodily responses to rapidly changing environments. Sensory Rhetorics puts rhetoric into conversation with sensory studies writ large.
