Description: "In this collection scholars in communication, rhetoric and composition, and philosophy seek to "reread" Aristotle's Rhetoric from a purely rhetorical perspective." "The essayists reflect on questions basic to rhetoric as a humanistic discipline. Some explore the ways in which the Rhetoric explicates the nature of the art of rhetoric, noting that on this issue, the tensions within the Rhetoric often provide a direct passageway into our own conflicts.".

"Finally, the editors' comprehensive bibliographic essay describes resources that would be of particular help to the Greekless reader and classifies and summarizes nearly one hundred books and articles written on the Rhetoric."--BOOK JACKET.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 207-226) and index.
