Abstract
This article reflects on the overlaps of English studies with studies of Political Rhetoric. It outlines current UK-based research agendas in ‘Rhetorical Political Analysis’. It proposes a shared agenda focused on speech and argument as social action, and informed by the idea of ‘Rhetorical Citizenship’, the right to participate fully in disputation.
