Cover; Title; Copyright; Contents; Preface; CHAPTER ONE: Introduction: The Nature of Rhetoric; CHAPTER TWO: Persuasion in Greek Literature before 400 B.C.; CHAPTER THREE: Greek Rhetorical Theory from Corax to Aristotle; Plato's Gorgias; Plato's Phaedrus; Isocrates; The Rhetoric for Alexander; Aristotle; CHAPTER FOUR: The Attic Orators; Lysias; Demosthenes; CHAPTER FIVE: Hellenistic Rhetoric; Theophrastus; Later Peripatetics; Demetrius, On Style; The Stoics; The Academics; The Epicureans; Asianism; Hermagoras and Stasis Theory; CHAPTER SIX: Early Roman Rhetoric; Cato the Elder.

George Kennedy's three volumes on classical rhetoric have long been regarded as authoritative treatments of the subject. This new volume, an extensive revision and abridgment of The Art of Persuasion in Greece, The Art of Rhetoric in the Roman World, and Greek Rhetoric under Christian Emperors, provides a comprehensive history of classical rhetoric, one that is sure to become a standard for its time. Kennedy begins by identifying the rhetorical features of early Greek literature that anticipated the formulation of "metarhetoric," or a theory of rhetoric, in the fifth and fourth centuries b.c.e.
