The temporality of rhetoricFootnote¹

Recent considerations of the interplay between time and rhetoric owe much to Paul De Man's article, “The Rhetoric of Temporality,”; which the title of my essay honors by anastrophe. I would like to thank the NAU Organized Research Committee for support, my colleagues James Bartell and Sharon Crowley for their commentary on the manuscript, and Harold Bloom of Yale and Lis M⊘ller of Copenhagen for help with background concepts.
