This book offers new insight into the ways rhetorical educators religious motives influenced the shape of nineteenthcentury rhetorical education and invites scholars of writing and rhetoric to consider what the study of religiouslyanimated pedagogies might reveal about rhetorical education itself.The author studies the rhetorical pedagogy of Austin Phelps, the prominent preacher and professor of sacred rhetoric at Andover Theological Seminary, and his theologicallymotivated adaptation of rhetorical education to fit the exigencies of preachers at the first graduate seminary in the United States. In disclosing how Phelps was guided by his Christian motives, the book offers a thorough examination of how professional rhetoric was taught, learned, and practiced in nineteenthcentury America. It also provides an enriched understanding of rhetorical theories and pedagogies in American seminaries, and contributes deepened awareness of the ways religious motives can function as resources that enable the reshaping of rhetorical theory and pedagogy in generative ways.Exploring the implications of Phelpss rhetorical theory and pedagogy for future studies of religious rhetoric, histories of rhetorical education, and twentyfirst century writing pedagogy,this book will be essential reading for scholars and students of rhetoric, education, American history, religious education, and writing studies.
