“…Han formåede ikke at finde og bruge de midler, der kunne overbevise. 31 Med et udtryk af retorikeren Edward Corbett (1969) er Grundtvigs retorik ikke den åbne hånds retorik, men den knyttede naeves. 32 Hans retorik er uforsonlig, og han anvendte tvingende sproglige midler i stedet for at søge tilslutning og identifikation.…”

“…32 Udtrykkene 'den åbne hånd' og 'den knyttede naeve' stammer oprindeligt fra filosoffen Zenon, som anvendte dem om stil. Corbett (1969) giver udtrykkene en drejning, når han lader dem stå for en aggressiv, provokerende retorik vs. en imødekommende, forsonlig retorik (Jørgensen 2009, 133). sine synspunkter fra andre end dem, der var enige med ham i forvejen, og i den forstand var han ikke en dygtig retoriker.…”

Denne artikel er baseret på ph.d.-afhandlingen Herrens Stridsmand. Retorisk kritikaf N.F.S. Grundtvigs teologiske polemik i perioden 1810-1825. Afhandlingen eren undersøgelse af Grundtvigs polemiske retorik i den såkaldt ‘bibelkristne’ periodeaf forfatterskabet, særligt årene 1810-1815. Undersøgelsen angår både denpolemik, der findes på tværs af genrer, og den egentlig polemiske genre stridsskriftet,som har været noget overset i forskningen. Jeg har valgt at udformeundersøgelsen som en retorisk analyse og kritik, fordi det moderne retorikfag haret stort og udviklet begrebsapparat, som er velegnet til at analysere de elementer,der er på spil i polemiske tekster: forfatterens selvfremstilling, publikumskonstruktion,argumentation og stil.1

“…This further relates to Nystrand's (1997) insights about reciprocity: In this classroom discourse, as in the dialogic classrooms studied by Nystrand and his colleagues, the knowledgeable role of narrator was not limited to the person ''in power''-the teacher-but to anyone who had learned something that might be of interest to the rest of the class. In Corbett's (1969) terms, it was the rhetoric of an open hand rather than that of a closed fist.…”

Performing Curriculum: Building Ethos through Narratives in Pedagogical Discourse

This study examines the problem of how teachers establish desirable positions of authority in their classrooms. The interpretive analysis draws on insights from narrative theory in order to consider the following question: How does one teacher establish authority in her classroom through the means of narrative performance? I articulate a rhetorical framework for exploring this question, particularly elaborating the notion of ethos, defined as the rhetorical invention of one's identity for persuasive purposes. I also establish a performance perspective to the study of narrative in teaching. In analysis, I have systematically examined one artful teacher's corpus of narrative performances in a 6-week Holocaust unit. This article overviews the occurrence of narrative events throughout the unit, characterizes the frame space of narrative discourse in the classroom, elaborates the variance in emerging ethos through narrative performances, and identifies and interprets the different types of narrative events in the class. I find that narratives serve as a hybrid frame space, allowing this teacher to establish a dynamically negotiated, yet nonetheless authoritative, ethos that emerged in response to the content material and to students.

While the seventeenth-century humanist and educator John Amos Comenius (1592–1670) never travelled to New York, his 1658 Orbis Sensualium Pictus (Visible World in Pictures) did, as a seventeenth- and eighteenth-century London import and as an 1810 New York imprint. Editions and expressively annotated individual copies of this image-rich, encyclopaedic, bilingual English-Latin book for children chart the social life of the Orbis Pictus in the United States. The first US facsimile (1887, Syracuse, New York) echoes the Orbis Sensualium Pictus’s diasporic roots, as a reader’s marks in the sole copy in the New York Public Library situate it amid the early twentieth century’s migrations of Eastern and Southern Europeans to New York.
