The author of this text is, Jenny Edbauer. She is a college professor at Kentucky University. This paper is more geared towards academic research. This article argues that, rhetorical situations operate within a network of lived practical consciousness or structures of feeling. What I get from that is, Edbauer has a similar view on rhetorical situations as Bitzer does. She thinks that rhetorical situation depends on what group you are around/ what situation you are in. Hense the name. It is about location and people influence that location.

Good explanation for a difficult reading. I like how you compared Edbauer’s view of Rhetoric to Bitzer.

Good answer, I like when you said how Edbauer argues that the rhetorical situation is largely influenced by the location and the people living there, implying that it can vary from place to place.
