| Summary: | This article argues that an analysis of New Testament letters can no longer stop at a structural analysis, but has to take cognisance of aspects of conversational analysis and rhetoric. That an interactional model rather than a structural approach should be adopted in the analysis of letters, is required from the letter genre itself. Various aspects of conversational analysis as well as rhetoric, for example conversational principles and implicatures, the relationship between speech situation and rhetorical situation and the components of the rhetorical situation are discussed. The article is theoretical in character. |
