"La Rhétorique d’Aristote est considérée encore aujourd’hui comme le texte fondateur de la discipline. Cicéron, Quintilien, Perelman ou Habermas, pour n’en citer que quelques-uns, sont tous ses héritiers. Pourtant, il existe peu de commentaires philosophiques qui s’attachent à rendre compte de cette œuvre dans son intégralité. C’est cette lacune que vient combler ce livre. L’ambition poursuivie n’est pas d’offrir un commentaire littéral, ni une paraphrase du texte d’Aristote, mais de comprendre les questions qu’il cherche à traiter et à harmoniser en un tout cohérent, qui est ce qu’on appelle aujourd’hui la rhétorique. Celle-ci est-elle une branche de l’éthique ou de la politique ? Est-elle plutôt raisonnement et argumentation, ou est-elle avant tout discours littéraire, fait de figures de style, ce qui va de l’épopée à la tragédie ? De plus, qu’est-ce que persuader et comment le discours y parvient-il ? Trois livres composent la Rhétorique, qui semblent à la fois se compléter et parfois se contredire. Michel Meyer démontre, dans son analyse, que l’entreprise est plus cohérente qu’il n’y paraît, malgré certaines ambiguïtés chez Aristote lui-même. Cette approche nouvelle de l’œuvre d’Aristote est enracinée dans la théorie du questionnement (la problématologie), développée par Michel Meyer depuis plusieurs décennies et permet de restituer à la Rhétorique toute sa cohérence et sa fécondité actuelle."

Augustine, a former renown teacher of rhetoric, came to be known as the great polemicist, celebrated as the champion of orthodoxy against Donatism, Manicheism and Pelagianism. Was it only the quality of his theology and the favour of the imperial court that enabled him to gain such a reputation? This case study of Augustine's anti-Donatist correspondence analyses his use of rhetoric throughout the course of the Donatist controversy to answer this question. It argues that Augustine was consciously recreating the strategies of forensic rhetoric taught in the schools across the Roman empire to achieve his polemical goals. --Back Cover.

"Aristotle's Rhetoric is a manual for public speakers written by a philosopher, providing a systematic method for all kinds of speech making, thus offering a useful tool to students of politics and writers of trial speeches. Like the other works of Aristotle that have come down to us, the Rhetoric was not a polished work intended for publication, but a text that could be used for lecture courses"--

This is a new text edition, based on several manuscripts not yet employed by previous editors, with Prolegomena, Italian translation, commentary, indices and lexicon of the Ars Rhetorica ad C. Herennium. This text was long-time wrongly ascribed to Cicero as his own correction of De inventione, an analogous but incomplete handbook of rhetoric. The Prolegomena and the commentary represent the largest approach ever attempted to this important work of Latin literature.
