Lcary s
provocative
book
...
is a major contribution to contemporary study
of apocalypticism. Drawing on thinkers as diverse as Aristotle, Kenneth Burke, Paul
Ricoeur, Alasdair Maclntyre, and Max Weber, O Leary constructs a model of the rhetor¬
ical strategy of apocalyptic discourse that is both original and convincing. [His] work
has advanced the political-rhetorical theory of apocalypticism to a new level.

Bernard McGinn, Divinity School, University of Chicago
Arguing the Apocalypse, is a sophisticated rhetorical analysis of apocalyptic discourse
as argument.
. . .
For anyone interested in eschatology, or in the history of religion in
America, this is a worthwhile work. Rhetorical scholars should welcome another good
historical study that draws heavily on the American tradition of rhetorical theory and
criticism. —The Cresset
[O Leary s] book is well-argued, intensively researched and documented, and full of
insights. It is worth reading entirely on its own merits.
. . .
Students of religion and
theology, of American history and politics, and especially of rhetoric will find this a
valuable volume. For students of apocalyptic discourse in particular, it is required
reading.

Rhetoric Society Quarterly
O Leary s learned work
...
opens a variety of issues which will need to be taken into
account in future apocalyptic studies.

A strong and provocative analysis that is must reading.

The Theological Educator
Apocalyptic expectations of Armageddon and a New Age have been a fixture of the
American cultural landscape for centuries. With the approach of the year
2000,
such
millennial visions seem once again to be increasing in popularity. Stephen O Leary
sheds new light on the age-old phenomenon of the End of the Age by proposing a
rhetorical explanation for the appeal of millenniaiism. Using examples of apocalyptic
argument from ancient to modern times, O Leary identifies the recurring patterns in
apocalyptic texts and movements and shows how and why the Christian Apocalypse has
been used to support a variety of political stances and programs. The book concludes
with a critical review of the recent appearances of doomsday scenarios in our politics
and culture, and a meditation on the significance of the Apocalypse in the nuclear age.
Arguing the Apocalypse is the most thorough examination of its subject to date: a study
of a neglected chapter of our religious and cultural history, a guide to the politics of
Armageddon, and a map of millennial consciousness.
