Abstract

Die grundsätzliche Neuinterpretation der Partitiones oratoriae erweist den kleinen Dialog als anspruchsvolles Kompendium des gesamten Systems rhetorischer Lehre und rückt ihn ins Zentrum einer spezifisch ciceronischen Konzeption der Rhetorik. Bei der Einbeziehung der übrigen philosophischen und rhetorischen Werke Ciceros wird die politische Relevanz sichtbar: Ciceros gelehrte Schriften bieten Kriterien für die Auswahl geeigneter Politiker, denen die Entscheidungsgewalt nur nach dem Nachweis ihrer Studien und methodischen Fähigkeiten übertragen werden soll. Die schriftstellerische Tätigkeit nach dem Exil kann somit nicht sinnvoll von der politischen getrennt betrachtet werden. This fundamentally new interpretation of the Partitiones oratoriae shows the small dialogue to be a demanding compendium of the whole system of rhetorical doctrine and places it at the centre of a specifically Ciceronian concept of rhetoric. By drawing upon Cicero's other philosophical and rhetorical works, the author reveals the political relevance: Cicero's learned writings present criteria for the selection of suitable politicians, to whom powers of decision-making should only be given after they have proved themselves to have studied and to possess methodical abilities. Thus Cicero's work as a writer after his exile cannot sensibly be separated from his political activity.

Abstract

"The reliance of individual presidents on their speechwriters has varied with the rhetorical skill of the officeholder himself, his managerial style, and his personal attitude toward public speaking. The individual chapters here (two by former White House speech-writers) give fascinating insight into the process and development of presidential speechwriting from Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration to Ronald Reagan's. Some contributors, such as Charles Griffin writing on Eisenhower and Moya Ball on Johnson, offer case studies of specific speeches to gain insight into those presidents. Other chapters focus on institutional arrangements and personal relationships, rhetorical themes characterizing an administration, or the relationship between words and policies to shed light on presidential speechwriting." "Medhurst's introduction of ten "myths" in the scholarship on presidential speeches and his summary of the enduring issues in the practice of speechwriting pull together the work of individual contributors. At the same time, his introduction and conclusion transcend particular presidents by providing generalizations on the role of speechwriting in the modern White House."--Jacket.
