Aproximaciones a una nueva retórica: estrategias persuasivas en los sonetos 1 a 17 de Shakespeare

Year: 1996

Type: article

Abstract: The analysis of persuasive discourse can be approached from the perspective of traditional rhetoric, but may be significantly implemented by the addition of tools provided by pragmatics. This essay aims to show how considerations regarding the textual indicators of the speaker's and the addressee's authority and affective relations and each one's social prestige (or face, according to Brown and Levinson's terminology) can help us to explain the textual organization of Shakespeare's sonnets 1-17 in order to achieve the poet's goal: to persuade his young friend to procreate. This kind of analysis will also allow us to discern the existence of two groups of sonnets, one based on the appeal to reason, the other on feelings, each featuring different discursive and persuasive strategies.
