Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 1991.

This dissertation examines, from an explicitly rhetorical perspective, the final chapter, "Conclusion", of Henry David Thoreau's Walden. It argues that much of the literary and inspirational force of the chapter derive from its selective appropriation, transformation and synthesis of two traditional rhetorical forms: the classically-ordained conclusion or peroratio, and early-romantic "combinational writing". The dissertation is divided into two parts. The first argues that "Conclusion" possesses several salient features and functions of the classical peroratio as this form was explicated by the ancient rhetoricians. The second then argues that "Conclusion" incorporates many of the stylistic and dispositional prescriptions for an "intentionally formless" style of "combinational writing" advocated roughly fifty years earlier by the German literary critic, philosopher and rhetorician, Friedrich Schlegel. To establish the strong conformity of "Conclusion" to early-romantic combinational writing, several remarkable similarities between the rhetoric of "Conclusion" and Schlegel's paradigm case of Gotthold Lessing's "fragmentary" writings are examined.Subjects--Topical Terms:
