Summary This book synthesizes Jacque Derridas hauntology and spectrality with affect theory in order to create a rhetorical framework analyzing the felt absences and hauntings of written and oral texts. The book opens with a history of hauntology, spectrality, and affect theory and how each of those ideas have been applied. The book then moves into discussing the unique elements of the rhetorical framework known as the rhetorrectional situation. Three case studies taken from the Christian tradition, serve to demonstrate how spectral rhetoric works. The first is fictional, C.S. Lewis The Great Divorce. The second is non-fiction, Tim Jennings The God Shaped Brain. The final one is taken from homiletics, Bishop Michael Currys royal wedding sermon. After the case studies, a conclusion offers the reader a summary and ideas for future applications for spectral rhetoric. Seth J. Pierce is Assistant Professor of Communication and Communication Program Director at Union College, Nebraska, USA.
