A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Greek philosopher Aristotle is one of the founding figures in Western philosophy. His writings cover a multitude of subjects from physics, poetry, theater, music, politics, science and gods. His writings are the earliest known use of formal logic which was latter incorporated into modern logic in the 19th century. Aristotle's philosophy is still the object of academic study and research even to this day, even as a large portion of his works have been lost over the century's. We can only wonder what treasures have been lost to time as we read his masterpieces.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Rhetoric is one of the most famous works by one of the most famous philosophers in history. Aristotle was one of Ancient Greece's seminal thinkers, a student of Plato's and a tutor of Alexander the Great's.
Although Rhetoric seems to be a compilation of notes taken by Aristotle's students, presumably during his lectures, Aristotle is still credited as the author of the work, and he's considered the first philosopher to teach about the art of persuasion. For the reason, he's often considered the first individual to truly study it.
