Abstrakt

Formułując zalecenie, retor określa swoje położenie na „polu” (ang. playground) wielu możliwości,
z których może skorzystać w ramach gatunku deliberatywnego. Koncepcję pola opisują następujące wymiary: przymus zalecenia i siła jego uzasadnienia, ale także forma przedstawienia – od prototypowej narracji po prototypową argumentację. W różnych kontekstach to pole wydaje się być wykorzystywane na różne sposoby i z różną intensywnością, co omówiono w niniejszym artykule. W zrozumieniu pomóc mogą koncepcje: zarządzania twarzą audytorium oraz różne koncepcje racjonalności, które dominują w określonych socjokulturowych kontekstach.
