Description
This study focuses on four major speeches of the final five months of the Gorbachev era. Three are concerned with the putsch of August 1991, and one is concerned with the December 1991 resignation. First the three major speeches given by Gorbachev immediately following the putsch are analyzed using the components of crisis rhetoric. Next the resignation speech is examined using the concepts found in apologia rhetoric. Finally, based on these four speeches, interrelationships between the two rhetorical forms are attempted using clues found within the actual rhetoric.
