PREFACE
The essays included in this volume grew out of the Biennial Wake Forest University Argumentation Conference. Since the fall of 1982, the Department of Speech Communication and Theatre Arts at Wake Forest University and the University Debate Team have cosponsored the Argumentation Conference with the hope of establishing a recurring informal, small colloquium on argumentation theory at which both established and aspiring scholars in the area can present ideas to their colleagues with the prospect of the sort of intensive give-and-take critiques rare in larger conferences. This volume contains select essays that grew out of that interchange. Thus, while it is not a "proceedings" of the Wake Forest conferences, it is an outgrowth of those conferences.
