Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of Roman rhetoric, examining its evolution and eventual decline during the Roman Empire. The author delves into the historical and social conditions that shaped the art of oratory, contrasting the robust eloquence of early Rome with the later rise… and fall of the Asian school of rhetoric. You'll learn how the rise of jurisprudence and the changing political landscape influenced the development of rhetoric into a distinct academic discipline. The book provides a detailed examination of the methods of instruction employed by Roman rhetoricians, from basic exercises to the complex declamations that became synonymous with their practice. The author meticulously analyzes the characteristics of these declamations, highlighting their penchant for the absurd, paradoxical, and exaggerated, and their detachment from the realities of real life. The book explores the thematic depths of the controversiae, the fictional legal cases that formed the core of the rhetoricians' exercises, and delves into their often shocking content. This exploration reveals how the pursuit of rhetorical brilliance and the desire for entertainment ultimately led to the degeneration of Roman eloquence.
