Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks us to identify the term defined as the 'call' or 'opening' in a rhetorical situation to which a rhetor responds.
Option 1: 'the summoning' — This term is not the standard label used in rhetorical theory for the initiating call. While it captures the sense of being summoned, it is not the conventional term used by definitions of rhetorical exigence.
Option 2: 'exigence' — This is the established term in rhetorical theory that refers to the imperfection marked by a problem or need that prompts a rhetorical response. It is the call or opening that the audience and rhetor address in order to justify discourse and action.
Option 3: 'the first persona' — This concept relates to the persona or the speaker’s constructed character, rather than the initial prompt or call that motivates a response. It describes who speaks, not what triggers the speech.
Option 4: 'constraints' — Constraints are factors that shape or limit the rhetorical situation (such as audience, context, available means), but they are not the initiating call itself. They influence how the response is formed rather than being the opening call.
Putting these together, option 2 aligns with the standard definition of the call or opening that a rhetor responds to in a rhetorical situation.
