Where's Toulmin?

[edit]

This sorry article seems to be largely based on Toulmin argumentation, but (apart from being almost citation-free) it manages not even to mention the man, his 1958 book The Uses of Argument, or his approach. There is a basic account at Stephen Toulmin#Argumentation but that really ought to be expanded, discussed, criticised, and richly cited here. One suitable source among many is

  • Hitchcock, David; Verheij, Bart, eds. (2006). Arguing on the Toulmin Model: New Essays in Argument Analysis and Evaluation. Springer-Verlag Netherlands. doi:10.1007/978-1-4020-4938-5_3. ISBN 978-1-4020-4937-8. OCLC 82229075.

This whole topic needs a rather more scholarly treatment. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:03, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
