A new 8×10 CSSR/SCÉR poster and 2×6 bookmark are now available.
See them on the Posters page of our website.
I have also created a “campaign” series of four 4×6 postcards with messages and quotations about rhetoric, eloquence or oratory. Each card comes in a French version & an English version. They are great for sharing on social media.
I will bring some postcards, bookmarks, and “Rhetoric is majestic” and “Rhetoric is useful & good” cards for distribution at our conference next week.
Submit a postcard idea
I also welcome submissions of content for additional postcards with a similar design. Not every postcard can be printed due to cost, but they would be shared on our website and social media.
I’d need a complete postcard concept, which includes the following:
1) a brief 2-3 word persuasive or informative message about what rhetoric is, or does, or can do, ideally using the word “rhetoric” or “eloquence” or similar terms that identify rhetoric.
2) a very short, pithy quotation with a citation that develops the idea of the poster’s message. This has to be very short to prevent it from being too small print.
3) AND, for PR materials for our bilingual society, we need the content of the message and quotation in eloquent French and English. Please do not send content in only one language because it can take a lot of time to find or make a good translation.
Send your complete, bilingual content ideas to webmaster@cssr-scer.ca. I will select and edit the content as necessary for postcard design, and all PR materials will be reviewed by the Executive committee.
