Abstract
As the final chapter of Part I of this monograph, Chap. 5 has the important task of bridging the tradition of topics with current studies on argument schemes. We tentatively include the major contributions to the study of argument schemes, starting from Richard Whately and concluding with contemporary authors. Central to our approach is a careful analysis of Hastings’ modes of reasoning (1962), as we consider this work a junction between the traditional and contemporary approaches to inference in argumentation. After Hastings, we carefully analyse contemporary approaches to argument schemes, including Kienpointner’s and Walton’s (Walton, Reed and Macagno 2008 in particular), and the approach proposed in pragma-dialectics.
