Byzantine
Rhetoric
More than a
literary habit, nearly an expression of life, particular ontology
Based on
pious principles, whose universal cosmology arose organically,
Upheld a
relational hierarchy that fixed creation as franchise of existential
Wonderment.
Accordingly,
manuscripts of classic works; encyclopedia, commentaries,
Translations, went
prized for both forensic and commonplace obstacles.
Such documents
operated opposite grammar else dialectic. Hermogenes
Trumped
Minucianus.
Winning souls, per
se, became currency like gold or gems. Whereas certain
Clergy disavowed
pagan discourse, suasory talk ruled amidst other forms
Of connection.
Language developed into devices for elevating not persons,
But positions.
Heightened
sensitivity to possible social strata encouraged assigning arbitrary
Meaning to
symbols, invigorated the use of words to craft realities. Semantic
Monging evolved to
include the classification of information into imperious
Annals.
All in all,
intellectuals were increasingly charged with assessing the
attraction
Of things.
Religious mentalities confinement breached many otherwise merely
Abstract
perceptions. Probing nature by observation or experimentation stayed
Forbidden.
The Intervening
Hundred Years
During the
intervening hundred years, rare, significant freedom modifications
Grew in the
midlands. Nationwide, rhetoric was fossilized, focused simply on
Power. Not
til the revolt did downtrodden persons aver reinvigorated words.
No interesting
developments followed, cept the use of labor camps plus jails.
Eventually, a
countermovement swirled beside hushed latrine/locker natter.
That uprising
played barely broad-ranging, narrowly a bygone phenomenon.
En total, no
unique, time-bound trials occurred, only episodes of communal
Endeavors rooted
in old-fashioned perspectives; all frontrunners were killed.
For decades, such
remonstrations werent integrated into cultural terminology
(scarce social
innovations altered the scope or emphasis on united talk until
Contributions to
the foothold about fragmented the undertaking.) Meanwhile,
Many politic
purchases were beaten down, additional leaders risked execution.
Although its
inherent for laypeople to explore the morality/meaning nexus,
Victimization and
the recovery of abused individuals can emerge as too dear
To promote
reliable grasps of dealings; ethics often become an early casualty.
Junctions of
wisdom and words probe painfully, create unmitigated tensions.
Contrariwise,
empowerment, authenticity, inclusivity implore denied justice
Be restored,
global solutions extend beyond mission prescriptions. Tousled
Discrete &
institutional functions proclaim confusions launched by shared
Policy. Life
quality matters. Every citizens expositions remain momentous.
Reflections on
fact/value distinctions need to be clarified instead of sourced
To a priori
arguments. When activities rotate objectified, some consequences
Cannot build
futures, attach soundly to relations, respond favorably to fillips.
Recount,
disparities abound amid discourses ubiquitousness, truths
absence.
Yet Educational
Systems
A shortage of
research affects missed perceptions, our tendency to display
Consequences of
educational systems. Without processes communicating
Critical thinking
behavior, our sphere, increasingly, becomes a collectively-
Strengthened,
egocentric contemplation buttressed by narrow knowledge.
Instrumental
discourse, unlike intrinsic rhetoric, cant assess unseen items.
Though were
expected to externalize vacant information when endorsing
Such venues,
procedures button up employers, colleagues, careers, lovers,
Self, the general
public, & bedrock values. Constraints confine options.
So, society
inadvertently possesses more constructs than we may convey.
(We need to
develop amended routes for understanding comportment.)
Meanwhile, human
exchanges stay transactional. Cultures realized policy
Purposes remain
bereft of valid grasps of the ethics phenomenology
Frameworks keeps
gaping, doctrines continue being rendered in halves.
Most applications
seemingly ever lack utility. Temporarily, civilizations
Just
Guardians renounce their singular liability for shared
actions.
Realized conditions of their
answerability become visible when folks
Shared scruples
chase validation of private feelings, sensitivities, truths.
The paucity of
rules concerning scholarship, plus transmission, results
In freedom
of thought, involving discerning amid morals &
tenets.
No events exist in
which institutions prolong being subjected to blame.
See, our tradition
of standards draggles on denizens' capacity to compose.
We rely on
intellectuals' self-imposed obligations. Later upshots fluctuate.
Depending on
manufacture, timelines, questions of conjoint conventions,
Augmented amounts
of metatheorized statements, learn or espouse facts,
Execute and
referee group obligations, or articulate advantageous models.
Communal
commitments for dialogue pile on developed awarenesses of,
Provided
understandings per, created opportunities for clear-cut notions
Undergirding our
connections. Rhetorical expertise once again conquers.
Weve potent
instruments for transmitting motivational power, deciding
Destiny. If
weighing phenomenal norms, present human nature, matters.
Intrinsic or
principled purposes, however, endure being implied initiatives.
Influential,
honorable drives, contrariwise, are explicated akin to terms of
Content. Their
legitimization produces ways to organize talk, allows some
Development of
reasoned judgment when acquiring, maybe manipulating
Data as
appropriate to acts, actors, and theories of actions. Elsewise, most
Routes function to
deconstruct, not to build or maintain public discussion.
Individual
identities, in chorus, reputedly reenforce our citizenship talents,
Moreover, process
our diminishing self-esteem, self-actualization. And so,
We truly transfer
acquiescence onto complex, incongruous reality beliefs
Underlying
linguistic adjudications, through our fresh community biases.
