|
Interests: Renaissance and Early Modern Rhetorical Tradition influence on the 18th century rhetorical education in Balkans, more precisely, in Serbia. This region was predominantly under the Byzantine influence, yet the majority of handbooks used in teaching Rhetorics were based on Jesuit rhetorical tradition (Soarez's De arte Rhetorica, for example). I am studying the roots and branches of Jesuit Rhetorics to understand the dynamics of early rhetorical education in my country. |

Interests: Applying interpretive stasis theory to historical instances in various segments of the Christian church since the 16th century where the official biblical position was completely reversed. These reversals are well known, but not the details of the many years of argumentative effort to accomplish them. I'm tracing how kinds of interpretive argument about textual meaning change in ecclesiastical debates over texts and non-religious textual debates evolved |
