Abstract

“Rhetoric, communication, interdiscursivity”. This paper deals with the role of Rhetoric in the study of human communication as a way of relating people in society by means of discursive use of language. Rhetoric is concerned with discourses whose goal is to influence on receivers, and discursivity is considered to be one of the main features of Rhetoric, since it allows building and delivering discourses fulfilling all textual and communicative requirements for argumentation of the thesis proposed in them. Discourses are connected to other discourses, and their relationship is important for achieving communication, that takes place in a complex field of interdiscursivity. The study of interdiscursivity is one of the ways for explaining discourse and communication, taking the examination of difference and similarity into account as a mean for exhaustive knowledge of the complex reality of discursive communication. Rhetoric has a very wide experience in dealing with interdiscursivity, so that it can provide an excellent tool to study it in collaboration with other sciences on discourse, language and communication. Interdiscursive analysis is proposed in this paper as a way of describing and explaining discourses from the perspectives of that collaboration.
