<p> Despite the much-lauded 'Plea for a Modern Set of Topoi' in 1964 during rhetoric's 'revival' (Dudey Moore, College English 26), we had to wait some forty years.

His contemporary version, foregrounded by the concept of appeal, gives us a methodology for not only rhetorical analysis but also innovative invention --Theresa Enos, University of Arizona
