Abstract
Kenneth Burke's method of agon and cluster analysis is developed‐and amplified. The method is then applied to the speeches of President John F. Kennedy to illustrate its usability. Burke's method offers the rhetorical critic a way of obtaining a more objective picture of a given speaker's rhetoric.Keywords
