Prisoners of Conscience: Moral Vernaculars of Political Agency - Studies in Rhetoric / Communication
Gerard A. Hauser
Examines the discourse of political prisoners, specifically the discourse of prisoners of conscience, as a form of rhetoric in which the vernacular is the main source of available appeals and the foundation for political agency. Gerard A. Hauser explores how modes of resistance employed by these prisoners constitute what he deems a “thick moral vernacular” rhetoric of human rights.
