Sloane, Thomas O. On the Contrary: The Protocol of Traditional Rhetoric. Washington, D.C.: CatholicUniversity of America Press, 1997. Thomas O. Sloane focuses on the pro-and-con debate protocol in traditional rhetoric in Western culture. But not only the verbal art known as rhetoric, but also the verbal art known as dialectic inculcated the spirit of pro-and-con debate. In Ramus, Method, and the Decay of Dialogue: From the Art of Discourse to the Art of Reason (Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1958), Walter J. Ong shows how Peter Ramus (1515-1572) and Ramism in effect moved away from the protocol of pro-and-con debate in favor of setting forth one's own line of argument without explicit reference to real or imaginary adversarial positions or possible objections.
