The Department of Rhetoric is a leading center for interdisciplinary research and teaching in the humanities and social sciences, committed to an ongoing interrogation at the boundaries of existing and emerging fields of knowledge.
Linked by a common interest in the functions of discourse in all its forms, faculty and students engage the theoretical, historical, and cultural dimensions of interpretation and criticism in fields as diverse as political theory, gender, law, media studies, philosophy, arts, and literature.
