Unfortunately I do not have a lot of Foucault's books around here, but
could you sum up for instance the different perspectives and analysis of
rhetoric you have found in your readings?
The explanation of rhetoric as a pure effect of power is maybe related to
Plato or Cicero if I understand your "repressive/contractual lens".
Could you define the other modes of discourse analysis from a Foucault
point of view or from your own?
Sorry to answer with another question.
Best regards
