Logos and Power in Isocrates and Aristotle (Studies in Rhetoric/Communication)

Logos and Power in Isocrates and Aristotle (Studies in Rhetoric/Communication)

by EkaterinaV.Haskins (Author)

Synopsis

Presents Isocrates' vision of discourse as a worthy rival, rather than a mere precursor, of Aristotle's Rhetoric. This book argues that much of what Aristotle had to say about the status of rhetoric and the role of discourse in the life of a Greek city-state may have been an implicit reaction to Isocrates.
