ABSTRACT This essay examines what thinking with disability brings to site-specific rhetorical work, which is work where rhetoricians gather to study location-related texts. Adapting the rhetorical triangle, I suggest that this work is fundamentally about the relationships between communicators, texts, and audiences, and my focus on the importance of including the perspectives of disabled and/or disability activists adds the “angle” of access. This “angle” requires reconsideration of how texts, speakers, and audiences connect and interact, as inaccessibility hinders and/or excludes some communicators, disregards some audiences, and renders some texts illegible. At the same time, thinking with disability in site-specific rhetorical work provides opportunities to support communities of disability scholars and scholarship, to create and implement accessible rhetorical methods, and to imagine inclusion as an iterative and fluid process. To examine these ideas, the essay shifts between articulating general principles and methodologies and offering specific examples from the Disability and Accessibility working group at the 2019 Rhetoric Society of America Project in Power, Place, and Publics at the University of Nevada, Reno.

获得信息的最大途径:在特定场所的修辞工作中考虑残疾

摘要本文探讨了残障人士的思维带给特定场所的修辞工作的作用,这是修辞工作者聚集的地方位置修辞研究领域。适应修辞三角,我认为这项工作从根本上讲是关于传播者,文本和听众之间的关系的,我的重点是纳入残疾人和/或残疾人活动家的观点的重要性,这增加了获取的“角度”。这个“角度”要求重新考虑文本,说话者和听众的连接和互动方式,因为无法访问阻碍和/或排除了一些交流者,无视了某些听众,并使某些文本难以辨认。同时,针对特定场所的言辞工作中的残障人士思考提供了支持残障学者和奖学金社区的机会,创建和实现可访问的修辞方法,并将包容想象为一个反复而流畅的过程。为了检查这些想法,本文在阐明一般原则和方法之间进行了转换,并提供了来自内华达大学里诺分校2019年美国修辞学会美国权力,地方和公众项目的残疾人与无障碍工作组的具体示例。
