Richard M. Weaver (1910 - 1963), a conservative U.S. scholar, wrote in rhetoric, the teaching of composition, the culture of America's south, & a problem of universals. His right-known works come Ideas Have Consequences, which was one of the key books of the early post-Globe War II conservative noetic movement in the United States, The Southern Tradition at Bay, and Visions of Order. A few of the positions Weaver took, like his opposition to McCarthy-era rules requiring the registration of members of the Communist Person, placed him apart from either several of his fellow conservativist.
