Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. From the Constitution to the Bible, from literary classics to political sound bites, our modern lives are filled with numerous texts that govern and influence our behavior and beliefs. Whether in the courtrooms of our judiciaries or over our dining room tables, we argue over what these texts mean as we apply them to our lives. Various schools of hermeneutics offer theories of how we generally understand the world around us or how to read certain types of texts toarrive at the correct or best interpretation, but most neglect the argumentative and persuasive nature of every act of interpretation.In Arguing over Texts, Martin Camper presents a rhetoricalmethod for understanding the types of disagreement people have over the meaning of texts and the lines of argument they use to resolve those disagreements. Camper's fresh approach has its roots in the long forgotten interpretive stases, originally devised by ancient Greek and Roman teachers of rhetoric for inventing courtroom arguments concerning the meaning of legal documents such as wills, laws, and contracts. The interpretive stases identify general, recurring debates over textual meaningand catalogue the lines of reasoning arguers may employ to support their preferred interpretations. Drawing on contemporary research in language, persuasion, and cognition, Camper expands the scope ofthe interpretive stases to cover textual controversies in virtually any context. To illustrate the interpretive stases' wide range of applicability, Arguing over Texts contains examples of interpretive debates from law, politics, religion, history, and literary criticism.Arguing over Texts will appeal to anyone who is interested in analyzing and constructing interpretive arguments. Building on the interpretive stases from the ancient Greco-Roman rhetorical tradition, Arguing over Texts presents a method for analyzing the types of disagreement people have over textual meaning and the lines of argument they use to resolve those disagreements in various contexts, including law, politics, religion, history, and literary criticism.
