Submission: Pittsburgh Pride: The Rhetoric of George Westinghouse’s Memorial
This submission is adapted from a larger research project I did examining the rhetorical significance of the Westinghouse Memorial to the identity of Pittsburgh. I explain how the memorial argues materially and spatially for how the city should be viewed, and how these appeals have shifted over time, as the city rebrands itself from industrial hub to center of creativity.
