Abstract

As the title Advanced perspectives and open questions suggests, Chap. 7 critically positions the Argumentum Model of Topics (AMT) in a broader context by taking open questions and relevant theoretical and methodological issues into consideration. Central to this chapter is the presentation of the AMT typology of loci: each locus is described in detail and some examples are briefly discussed, by which considerations that stem from the historical overview provided in the first part of this volume are integrated. We critically explicate the rationale of the AMT typology and its limits. Other theoretical issues tackled in this chapter include the connection between semantic analysis and AMT analysis, the rationale of the locus-maxim multiple relations, a discussion on the theoretical “province” of loci and on the heuristical value of the AMT, as well as a brief opening on the AMT in argument mining.
