This dissertation concerns contrastive rhetoric which examines the ways that the different rhetorical styles of different cultures influence their society as a whole. The author examines the rhetorical theory of the Confucianism of East-Asia and contrasts it with the Aristotleanism of North American culture. The author then examines 50 expository essays from North American students and 50 from Korean students to demonstrate how the cultural rhetorical theories of the respective cultures influence the writing of the students in those cultures.
