Art of Rhetoric

by Thomas Wilson

Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

First published in 1553, Wilson's work brought into the English language the procedures of Ciceronian rhetoric, and quickly became a mainstay of the academic curriculum. It reveals much about the education of such authors as Shakespeare, Spenser, Jonson, and Milton. Other 20th-century editions have been facsimiles, or have retained the original spelling; this modernizes the spelling and punctuation of the 1560 second edition. Indexed only by rhetorical terms.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
