Freeman, James B.
Argument Structure: Representation and Theory / [recurso electrónico] : by James B. Freeman. - XVIII, 214 p. online resource. - Argumentation Library, 18 1566-7650 ; . - Argumentation Library, 18 .
Preface.- Chapter One An Approach to Argument Macrostructure -- Chapter Two The Dialectical Nature of ARGUMENT -- Chapter Three Toulmin’s Problematic Notion of Warrant -- Chapter Four The Linked-Convergent Distinction–A First Approximation -- Chapter Five Argument Structure and Disciplinary Perspective: The Linked-Convergent versus Multiple-Co-ordinatively Compound Distinctions -- Chapter Six The Linked-Convergent Distinction–Refining the Criterion -- Chapter Seven Argument Structure and Enthymemes -- Chapter Eight From Analysis to Evaluation.-References.- Index.
This monograph presents a method of diagramming argument macrostructure, synthesizing the standard circle and arrow approach with the Toulmin model. A theoretical justification of this method through a dialectical understanding of argument, a critical examination of Toulmin on warrants, and a thorough discussion of the linked-convergent distinction follows. Discussion includes consideration of alternative understandings of argument structure and its representation presented in Wigmore’s chart method, Pollock’s inference graphs, and the pragma-dialectical approach to argumentation. An account of the proper reconstruction of enthymemes and issues at the border of structural analysis versus evaluation of arguments conclude the book.
