Abstract: | The study describes a method created for the analysis of persuasive strategies, called rhetorical heuristics, which can be
applied in speeches where the argument focuses primarily on questions of fact. First, the author explains how the concept
emerged from the study of classical oratory. Then the theoretical background of rhetorical heuristics is outlined through
briefly discussing relevant aspects of the psychology of decision-making. Finally, an exposition of how one could find these
persuasive strategies introduces rhetorical heuristics in more detail. |
