"...this is a great book....Rosteck does an incredible job of addressing the nuances of both Rhetorical Studies and Cultural Studies in the academic arena and the varying degrees of applicability of each branch to the goals of this particular collection. The contributing authors are equally brilliant in their treatment of each field's contributions, and limitations, to completely 'grasp [how given] textual practices [become] forms of power and performance.' The honesty ofAt the Intersectionis a relief from the sheer business of its language, and, in the end, it proves both culturally pertinent and cleverly persuasive." --Counterpoise, "...this is a great book....Rosteck does an incredible job of addressing the nuances of both Rhetorical Studies and Cultural Studies in the academic arena and the varying degrees of applicability of each branch to the goals of this particular collection. The contributing authors are equally brilliant in their treatment of each field's contributions, and limitations, to completely 'grasp [how given] textual practices [become] forms of power and performance.' The honesty of At the Intersection is a relief from the sheer business of its language, and, in the end, it proves both culturally pertinent and cleverly persuasive." --Counterpoise, "This volume is of signal interest and importance to anyone concerned with the problems and possibilities of rhetorical and cultural criticism today. Situating their work at the 'intersection' of historical, theoretical, and methodological disciplinary concerns, the contributors critically engage with the interplay of the popular and the political in everyday life." --John Louis Lucaites, PhD, Department of Communication and Culture, Indiana University "'Culture,' Raymond Williams astutely remarked a number of years ago, is 'one of the two or three most complicated words in the English language.' Rhetoric, we have since come to recognize, is another. This timely volume takes up the pressing task of teasing out and analyzing the entailments of their fraught relation. From the Culture Wars to the Memo Wars, contemporary film to genetic medicine, sixteenth-century painting to contemporary political discourse, intellectual traditions to public memorials and theme parks, these critical essays are certain to move an already vital debate in new and productive directions." --Barbara Biesecker, PhD, Associate Professor of Rhetoric and Communication Studies, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa "At the Intersection catches cultural studies in a useful phase of uncertainty about its guiding aims and ideas--and rhetorical inquiry in a newly ambitious mood about its contemporary applications. The result puts some welcome fizz into cultural theory and illustrates what possibilities remain for cultural analysis." --John Corner, Professor, School of Politics and Communication Studies, University of Liverpool "At the Intersection is the most important book to be published on cultural studies and rhetoric in the last decade. For students and others interested in the relationship between cultural practice, ideology critique, and the politics of representation, this is an indispensable book. It is also a book that takes seriously the relationship between strategies of understanding and strategies of critical engagement and transformation. A 'must read.'" --Henry A. Giroux, DA, Waterbury Chair Professor, Pennsylvania State University

Synopsis
What is the relationship between cultural and rhetorical studies? What can the two fields learn from each other? This insightful volume is based on the premise that these fields address specific and parallel questions about culture, critical practice, and interpretation, and that opening up a dialogue between them can enhance both and provide a more complete understanding of society. Noted scholars across a variety of disciplines examine the overlaps and contradictions between these approaches, how they can contribute to each other, and the problems and questions that surface with this linkage. Exploring both critical and pedagogical practice, contributors address such questions as the relationship between images, representation, and ideology; influence and the struggle for power; how to blend theory and case study analysis effectively; and the goals of academic work., What is the relationship between cultural and rhetorical studies?
