Journal Descriptions

This journal publishes studies of health and medicine that take a rhetorical perspective. Such studies combine rhetorical analysis with any number of other methodologies, including critical/cultural analysis, ethnography, qualitative analysis, and quantitative analysis. Rhetoric of Health & Medicine seeks to bring together humanities and social scientific research traditions in a rhetorically focused journal to allow scholars to build new interdisciplinary theories, methodologies, and insights that can impact our understanding of health, illness, healing, and wellness. Rhetoric of Health & Medicine (RHM) is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original rhetorical studies (e.g., studies that use theories of rhetoric or persuasion) of health and medical practices involving communication. By rhetorical studies, we mean work that entails more than examining the language or discourse involved in health and medical issues, but that also uses theories of rhetoric to guide inquiry and arrive at nuanced observations about how persuasion works (or could/should work) in discourse and practice. Such studies can combine rhetorical analysis with any number of other humanistic or social scientific methodologies, including critical/cultural analysis, ethnography, qualitative analysis, and quantitative analysis; indeed, RHM seeks to encourage scholarly conversations about health and medicine across fields of inquiry and spheres of practice, in part by publishing inter- and trans-disciplinary research.
