A generic exploration: Staged withdrawal, the rhetoric of resignation

Pages 247-257 | Published online: 22 May 2009
 

Abstract

The author argues that staged withdrawal promises to be a recurrent event, because of the recurrence of the described relationships among occasion, audience, and speaker role, and because the ultimately converging interests of the resigner and survivor dictate a recurrent manipulation of the discourse to exploit ambivalent audience expectations of the resigner‐speaker role.
