In response, scholars are increasingly turning to sensation for new frameworks to understand our situated, bodily responses to rapidly changing environments. \u003ci\u003eSensory Rhetorics\u003c\/i\u003e puts rhetoric into conversation with sensory studies writ large.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume illuminates and interrogates how rhetoric \"makes sense,\" focusing on the ways sensation acts as a suasive force in everyday life.\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eEssays in the volume offer an array of (multi)sensory methods and experiences to demonstrate how sensory rhetorics open new avenues for thinking about our world. The volume begins with the role of disgust in our partisan politics and the digital economy, introduces key concepts of sensory rhetoric, and models innovative methods in relation to environmental injustice, anti-racist work, and gender-affirming surgery. The final essays leave readers with provocative questions regarding sensory regimes and exclusion, received notions of meaning, and the deeply anti-sensory attitudes of coloniality to reimagine the future work of sensory rhetoric. Together, the authors argue that this era of unprecedented change requires new kinds of bodily knowledge and sensory methods to help us understand the most pressing issues in contemporary life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume are Kerry Banazek, Natalie Bennie, Kyle S.
