A detailed scholarly edition of Aristotle's Rhetoric, with expert commentary and translation notes.
The volume presents volume III’s text and Cope’s extensive commentary, focusing on the later chapters that analyze verbal style, delivery, and the arrangement of arguments. It also situates the three-part structure of rhetoric—proof, character, and emotion—within Cicero’s terms and the broader Greek tradition. Clear, precise language helps readers follow how Aristotle’s ideas connect with ancient and later rhetorical practice.
Readers will encounter a careful discussion of language, allusion, and the practicalities of translation, along with appendices and indices that map the book’s structure to its themes. The edition highlights how style adapts to different kinds of rhetoric—from public debate to written prose—and why mastery of both spoken and written forms matters for understanding classical rhetoric.
Ideal for students and readers of philosophy, classics, and rhetoric who want a precise, user-friendly guide to Aristotle’s methods and their literary and historical context.
