Argumentative Strategies

A retórica é a capacidade de discernir os meios capazes de gerar persuasão em cada caso e, portanto, no discurso político, apresenta-se como capaz de mover e tocar as paixões do auditório através da exploração da doxa. Dentre todas as partes da exposição retórica, encontramos na peroração a primazia pelo pathos, pela comunhão com as afecções do auditório. Este artigo procura, pois, apresentar como se construíram as estratégias retórico-argumentativas na peroração de um pronunciamento de Barack Obama, buscando evidenciar as implicações patêmicas em cada uma das provas retóricas (ethos/pathos/logos/) e o uso da figura retórica da analogia .Abstract Rhetoric by definition aims to effectively use language and other means to persuade an audience in specific situations. Therefore, in political discourse, this practice can be used to motivate and touch the passions of the audience through the exploration of the doxa. Among all rhetorical organization, the peroration is the part in which pathos and audience’s affection are more emphasized. Thus, this article intends to clarify how the rhetorical and argumentative strategies were arranged in the peroration of Barack Obama’s speech and to evidence the pathemic implications in each rhetorical proof (ethos/pathos/logos).

Argumentative Strategies

This study focuses on the analysis of some rhetorical-argumentative strategies and the textual and compositional configuration of discursive productions within the parliamentary political discourse, which generates agonism and a strong cleavage between parties. We specifically analysed the discourses on the referenda held in 1998 e 2007, concerning changes to the socalled “VIP law”. We established a corpus comprising 41 texts published in the press and 7 texts published in the Diário da Assembleia da República (containing written transcripts of the debates held in Parliament). We concluded that rhetorical-discursive strategies that highlight and deepen dissention are particularly relevant, particularly in the process of referencing “abortion”. The strategies used to reference the discursive object “abortion” are analysed from a discursive-pragmatical and rhetorical standpoint; the reference of “abortion” is at the centre of agonistic interactions and sustains the arguments presented by the two opposing groups. We draw on the work by Amossy (2012 [2000], 2014), Plantin (1996, 2011), Micheli (2008, 2011), Charaudeau (2005, 2017), Marques (2000, 2005) and Fonseca (1992, 1998).

Orbital Region

Cat extraocular muscles consist of two regions: orbital, and global. The orbital region contains predominantly small diameter fibers, while the global region contains a variety of fibers of different diameters. The differences in ultrastructural features among these muscle fibers indicate that the extraocular muscles of cats contain at least five structurally distinguishable types of fibers.Superior rectus muscles were studied by light and electron microscopy, mapping the distribution of each fiber type with its distinctive features. A mixture of 4% paraformaldehyde and 4% glutaraldehyde was perfused through the carotid arteries of anesthetized adult cats and applied locally to exposed superior rectus muscles during the perfusion.
