Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.; Focuses on the writings of John Locke, Adam Smith, Hugh Blair, and Herbert Spencer to explore how the discipline of rhetoric connected the economics and ethics of capitalism from the British Enlightenment through the nineteenth century--Provided by publisher. Biographical Note: Mark Garrett Longaker is the Associate Chair and Associate Professor of Rhetoric and Writing at the University of Texas at Austin. Publisher Marketing: During the British Enlightenment, the correlation between effective communication and moral excellence was undisputed--so much so that rhetoric was taught as a means of instilling desirable values in students. In Rhetorical Style and Bourgeois Virtue, Mark Garrett Longaker explores the connections between rhetoric and ethics in the context of the history of capitalism. Longaker's study lingers on four British intellectuals from the late seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth century: philosopher John Locke, political economist Adam Smith, rhetorical theorist Hugh Blair, and sociologist Herbert Spencer. Across one hundred and fifty years, these influential men sought to mold British students into good bourgeois citizens by teaching them the discursive habits of clarity, sincerity, moderation, and economy, all with one incontrovertible truth in mind: the free market requires virtuous participants in order to thrive. Through these four case studies--written as biographically focused yet socially attentive intellectual histories--Longaker portrays the British rhetorical tradition as beholden to the dual masters of ethics and economics, and he sheds new light on the deliberate intellectual engineering implicit in Enlightenment pedagogy.
