Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lucian, Vol. 8 of 8: With English Translation This dialogue has been rejected as non-lucianic by manyauthorities on the ground that it is unworthy Of Lucian s talents and seems to criticise a number Of Lucian' s own usages. Harmon agreed with this view and suggested that it may have been the work of an unknown schoolmaster who had lived In Egypt (of. C. 5) and had read Lexiphanes This view may well be c.orrect See, however, my article in Classical Quarterly, 1956, where I argue that this dialogue could indeed be by Lucian and 18 best taken as a spiteful and at times hypocritical attack on a personal enemy who has offended Lucian by criticising his Greek.

Book Rhetoric in Tooth and Claw

Download or read book Rhetoric in Tooth and Claw written by Debra Hawhee and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-06-11 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We tend to think of rhetoric as a solely human art. After all, only humans can use language artfully to make a point, the very definition of rhetoric. Yet when you look at ancient and early modern treatises on rhetoric, what you find is surprising: they’re crawling with animals. With Rhetoric in Tooth and Claw, Debra Hawhee explores this unexpected aspect of early thinking about rhetoric, going on from there to examine the enduring presence of nonhuman animals in rhetorical theory and education. In doing so, she not only offers a counter-history of rhetoric but also brings rhetorical studies into dialogue with animal studies, one of the most vibrant areas of interest in humanities today. By removing humanity and human reason from the center of our study of argument, Hawhee frees up space to study and emphasize other crucial components of communication, like energy, bodies, and sensation. Drawing on thinkers from Aristotle to Erasmus, Rhetoric in Tooth and Claw tells a new story of the discipline’s history and development, one animated by the energy, force, liveliness, and diversity of our relationships with our “partners in feeling,” other animals.
