Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book studies the influential prose style of the Greek orator Isocrates, which dominated Western culture for centuries before being adopted by 16th-century English writers. While the author disputes the notion that Isocrates's style directly influenced the poetic prose of John Lyly's novel Euphues, a work exemplary of euphuism, they argue that Isocrates's teachings had a profound influence on English prose style as a whole. The author explores the continuities and differences between classical and 16th-century uses of euphuistic figures, illuminating the development of these figures and of prose style more broadly.
