Whilst there are certain techniques unique to specific genres and art-forms, which Mazzon pinpoints and critiques, she is persuasive in her argument that there is a unified attempt by the Church to use pathos as a communicative strategy, evident in both art and literature. -Hetta Elizabeth Howes, City University of London, in Emotions: History, Culture, Society, Vol. 3, No. 1 (2019) pp. 180-181 Author InformationGabriella Mazzon (1962), University of Innsbruck, is Professor of English Linguistics at that University.
