Some Famous People called Gregory Clark

Gregory Clark (rhetorician)

Gregory Clark (born 1950 in Provo, Utah) is an American scholar and teacher working in rhetorical studies and American cultural criticism. He retired from academic work in 2021. His work is both theoretical and critical, developing concepts of how influence works that he then uses to study capacities for influence inherent in American cultural practices.

His theoretical project centers on an ongoing exploration of rhetorical aesthetics: ways that rhetoric works through aesthetic means and ways that aesthetic encounters do rhetorical work. Clark's primary resource for this work is the work of Kenneth Burke. His critical project has examined early American literature and oratory, American landscapes, and recently has focused on American music in order to trace ways the experiences they provide expose and shape aspects of American identity. In 2015 he began an ongoing project with pianist and composer, Marcus Roberts, to teach and demonstrate democratic practices of personal and civic interaction through the model of jazz music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbfppCoeiTM Clark was Professor of English at Brigham Young University where he led the American Studies and University Writing programs, chaired the English Department and served as associate dean in the College of Humanities.
