L'Informal Logic è una "scuola"? Genesi, natura e sviluppi degli approcci canadesi alla teoria dell'argomentazione (e qualche riflessione intorno alla retorica)

IS INFORMAL LOGIC A “SCHOOL”? ORIGINS, NATURE AND DEVELOPMENTS OF THE CANADIAN APPROACHES TO ARGUMENTATION (AND SOME REFLECTIONS ON RHETORIC). By looking at the birth and evolution of the informal logic movement, and by clarifying what it is required in order to understand what “school” means, we would like to consider the hypothesis that there is something which could be called “the Canadian ‘school’ of argumentation”, by reflecting on its evolution towards a discounting of the Aristotelian rhetoric.
