In the article Rhetorical Situations and their Constituents by Keith GrantDavie, he talks about the meaning of what is exigence,

discourse, rhetors, and an

audience. He explains in details of what each of these terms mean. For example he
gives a great explanation of what exigence mean. According to this definition, the
essential question addressing the exigence of a situation would be why is the
discourse needed? (Grant, pp. 350). Grant gives details and answers question of
what a discourse really means and what is its meanings.
In this article it was interesting to know that Grant explains briefly of how a
discourse works and how to put rhetoric in the situation. I agree of how he manages
to answer questions that us as writers ask and tend to understand a little better the
situation of being rhetoric when knowing more about a discourse. He made it
interesting when he talks about how the audience plays a role when having to know
the meanings of these terms and how it is important as writer to have the audience
included.
