  1. Pre-print of our Open Access Cambridge UP volume, Rhetorical Traditions and Contemporary Law, is up. This volume explores the often-overlooked relationship between law and rhetoric. Twelve case studies examine a diverse range of legal texts and rhetorical traditions
    from ancient times to the present. The volume demonstrates the value of rhetoric in understanding and addressing some of today's most pressing legal and social challenges. dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.489297 #TeamRhetoric #LegalWriting #Lawfedi

  2. We have gotten the collection Classical Rhetoric & Contemporary Law: A Critical Reader over the finish line. An accessible text for scholars and students (#LawProfs, #argumentation, #LegalWriting, #TeamRhetoric)—and curious lawyers in #LawFedi. Introduces the complex relationship between ancient western thought and contemporary law and the long history of some rhetorical concepts and practices that advocates and judges are still using today (not always for the better). uapress.ua.edu/9780817361396/c

  3. The journal _Argumentation_ has accepted “Reconceiving Argument Schemes as Descriptive and Practically Normative.” This thread summarizes our revision of work of #DouglasWalton et al. I argue here (and elsewhere) that #ArgumentSchemes are essential for making sense of #LegalArguments and #LegalReasoning. 1/6
