While Immanuel Kant is an epochal figure in a variety of fields, he has not figured prominently in the study of rhetoric and communication. This book represents the most detailed examination available into Kant"s uneasy but often misunderstood relationship with rhetoric. By explicating Kant"s complex understanding of rhetoric, this book advances the thesis that communicative practices play an important role in Kant"s account of how we become better humans and how we create morally cultivating communities.
