Three Sympoietic Rhetorical Properties...
"we're still without definitions, critique, and articulation of the range of collaborative engagement that one might wish for"
(Yancey and Spooner, "A Single Good Mind" 46).
Whereas Bitzer stipulates three components of his rhetorical situation--exigence, audience, and constraints--and the CCC's poster page expands that to seven (composer, subject, audience, text, genre, media, and context)--a Yancey-inspired sympoietic rhetorical situation offers three interweaving and interpellating properties-processes: agentive co-constitution, encompassing alternative rhetorical subjectivities; porous materiality, celebrating alternative textur-alities, and rhetorical accountability, inscribing ethics before, within, and after every rhetorical performance.
