Return to: Humanities
The study of communication and rhetoric treats human communication as purposeful interaction between speakers and listeners. It takes into account the purpose of the message, the audience, the channels used, and the context in which the communication occurs. As a discipline, communication investigates a broad range of topics and incorporates knowledge acquired from other fields as well, including psychology, sociology, anthropology, and linguistics.
