As a fundamental linguistic and mental procedure for non-violent problem solving, securing validity and coordinating action, argumentation represents a socio-cultural achievement that manifests and proves itself in all social fields of action. Argumentation is of outstanding importance for any constructive form of interpersonal interaction in conflict-prone situations. From a linguistic point of view, argumentations are more or less explicit sequences of related speech acts. Their structures can be viewed from a functional, formal and content-material perspective.
The main topics that will be covered in presentations, discussions and commentaries during the semester include
(1) classical rhetorical argumentation theory in the tradition of Aristotle and Quintilian,
(2) modern argumentation theory in the tradition of Perelman / Olbrechts-Tyteca and Toulmin,
(3) Pragmadialectics according to van Eemeren, Grootendorst and others,
(4) the study of formal and material patterns of argumentation (schemata and topoi),
(5) the normative theory of fallacies,
(6) everyday logic (Kienpointner),
(7) the relationship between argumentation and metaphor,
(8) the functional-pragmatic analysis of argumentation in conversations,
(9) argumentation in politics (e.g. in discourses on migration, gender relations and the climate crisis),
(10) the relationship between argumentation and explanation (explication),
(11) complex argumentation in digital polylogues.
The teaching methods consist of a combination of lectures by the course instructor, compulsory reading of selected texts on the topic, student presentations, discussions and the preparation of written papers.
