Explores John Quincy Adamss oratorical work in support of governmentfunded science.This book introduces readers to the role that classical oratory played in changing early American attitudes about pure scientific research. Marlana Portolano investigates the impact of John Quincy Adamss oratorical campaigns on the origins of governmentfunded science in America, with a special focus on his classical theory of rhetorical engagement and civic duty.In this age where so much government funding of science is based in the militaryindustrial complex, it is fascinating to look at arguments for and against government funding of science at a time when such funding was not a given.
