Product Description

Synopsis
Inextricably linked with logic and spoken and written communication, rhetoric came by the 18th century to provide standards for the composition and criticism of persuasive, expository, didactic, historical, philosophical and poetical forms of expression. Leading spokesmen for the new rhetoric in the 18th century included George Campgell and Hugh Blair. There still existed at this time theorists of the ancient rhetorical system of Aristotle and Cicero such as John Milner, as well as stylistic rhetoricians such as John Stirling, Daniel Turner and Thomas Gibbons, and lastly elocutionists such as John Lawson. The collection of hard-to-find texts should be of interest to student and researchers of the 18th century, philosophy, logic, rhetoric, both ancient andmodern, and literary criticism.
