%0 Journal Article %T Auditory Arguments: The Logic of 'Sound' Arguments %A Leo Groarke %J - %D 2018 %R https://doi.org/10.22329/il.v38i3.4954 %X Abstract This article discusses ˇ°auditoryˇ± arguments: arguments in which non-verbal sounds play a central role. It provides examples and explores the use of sounds in argument and argumentation. It argues that auditory arguments are not reducible to verbal arguments but have a similar structure and can be evaluated by extending standard informal logic accounts of good argument. I conclude that an understanding of auditory elements of argument can usefully expand the scope of informal logic and argumentation theory %U https://informallogic.ca/index.php/informal_logic/article/view/4954
