It also develops methodological approaches and simplified precise applications to study a large amount of audience responses to literary works, popular biographies, political speeches, religious sermons, Facebook comments, and others; with the goal of paving the way for researchers wishing to explore a new rhetorical horizon, concerned with audience responses in public spaces. This book belongs to contemporary rhetorical studies, which did not stop at studying similes, metaphors, allegories, and other rhetorical images, nor at studying how the speaker provides their rhetorical toolkit.
