商品簡介
The ubiquitous rhetorics of uniform origins and timeless principles, of pure intentions versus degraded expressions, and of pristine insides versus ambiguous outsides, says McCutcheon (religious studies, U. of Alabama), are all useful to groups engaging in the sleight of hand called social formation. He generalizes them and their ilk into a rhetoric of authenticity, which perforce must shift color as the world around it changes. Distributed in the US by the David Brown Book Company.
