The Atmospherical "We" Moods and Collective Feelings
By Tonino Griffero (University of Rome, Italy) This book explores the relationship between atmospheres, expressive qualities, moods and collective feelings. Based on the neo-phenomenological theory of atmosphere perception as a primary pathic impression and bodily communication, this book explores the relationship between atmospheres, expressive qualities, moods, and collective feelings. It clarifies the key features of a general “pathic” aesthetic. By realising how they expose themselves to what happens, perceivers turn out not to be "subjects of something" but rather "subject to something".

Ethics and Representation in Feminist Rhetorical Inquiry Edited by Amy Dayton and Jennie Vaughn The historiography of feminist rhetorical research raises ethical questions about whose stories are told and how. Women and other marginalised people have been excluded historically from many formal institutions, and researchers in this field often turn to alternative archives to explore how women have used writing and rhetoric to participate in civic life, share their lived experiences, and effect change. The chapters in this volume present a frank conversation about the ways in which feminist scholars engage in the work of recovering hidden rhetorics, and grapple with the ethical challenges raised by this recovery work.
