Hubert Marraud’s Arguments’ Dialectics in University Teaching of Argumentation
Main Article Content
Abstract
Hubert Marraud has developed a proposal for the analysis and evaluation of arguments from the logical perspective in argumentation theory, which he calls arguments’ dialectics, according to which the dialectical character in argumentation does not appear only among the arguers, but also between the arguments themselves within the argumentative discourses. Based on his proposal Marraud has offered, for almost ten years, an argumentation course to Philosophy students at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. In this paper,
I offer a presentation of the arguments’ dialectics proposal, the integration of themes and the methodology Marraud presents in his college course, as well as considerations on some of the results achieved. This exhibition intends to show the uniqueness of the mutual benefit achieved by combining research and teaching in argumentation theory.
