Over dit e-boek
Aristotle's 'Rhetoric' is a foundational work in the field of rhetoric, discussing the art of persuasion and its applications in public speaking and writing. Focused on the three modes of persuasion - logos, ethos, and pathos, Aristotle delves into the importance of using these appeals effectively to sway an audience. The book is structured in a systematic and logical manner, offering practical advice and insights on the power of language and argumentation. Written in a clear and concise style, 'Rhetoric' showcases Aristotle's keen intellect and his understanding of human nature and communication. It remains a timeless guide for those seeking to improve their persuasive abilities and rhetorical skills. {pThe author, Aristotle, was a renowned philosopher and polymath in ancient Greece, known for his contributions to various fields such as ethics, politics, and metaphysics. His extensive knowledge and experience in rhetoric and persuasion led him to write 'Rhetoric', a comprehensive treatise that continues to be studied and revered to this day. As a prominent thinker of his time, Aristotle's work continues to influence scholars and students of rhetoric and communication. I highly recommend 'Rhetoric' to anyone interested in mastering the art of persuasion and understanding the principles of effective communication.
Over de auteur
Aristotle, 384 B.C. - 322 B. C. Aristotle was born at Stagira, in Macedonia, in 384 B.C. At the age of 17, he went to Athens to study at Plato's Academy, where he remained for about 20 years, as a student and then as a teacher. When Plato died in 347 B.C., Aristotle moved to Assos, a city in Asia Minor, where a friend of his, Hermias, was ruler. After Hermias was captured and executed by the Persians in 345 B.C., Aristotle went to Pella, the Macedonian capital, where he became the tutor of the king's young son Alexander, later known as Alexander the Great. In 335, when Alexander became king, Aristotle returned to Athens and established his own school, the Lyceum Aristotle's works were lost in the West after the decline of Rome, but during the 9th Century A.D., Arab scholars introduced Aristotle, in Arabic translation, to the Islamic world. In the 13th Century, the Latin West renewed its interest in Aristotle's work, and Saint Thomas Aquinas found in it a philosophical foundation for Christian thought. The influence of Aristotle's philosophy has been pervasive; it has even helped to shape modern language and common sense. Aristotle died in 322 B.C.
