Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2016. 1st paperback ed.XIV,353p. Paperback. Nice copy. Like new. ?Latin studies florist in northern Britain, as the present volume, the written trace of a conference of the same title held at Edinburgh in 2007 with one additional paper, demonstrates. Of the nineteen authors of these eighteen papers (one written jointly by the editors), no fewer than seven currently teach at Edinburgh Glasgow, or St Andrews, and several more hail from northern England. The quality of the papers is generally high, the editing scrupulous, and the editors made the wise decision not to limit ?oratory? to the surviving texts of real speeches. Their net was cast widely, extending beyond Cicero?s orations to include not only Pliny, Apuleius, and the panegyrics but the representations of speech in Roman philosophy, historiography, and (in one case) statuary.?

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In this book Roman oratory is explored from the perspective of form and function. Leading scholars in the field of Latin prose consider not only the speeches of Cicero, Pliny, Apuleius and the later panegyrists, but also those found in Roman philosophical writing, and in the histories of Caesar, Sallust, Livy and Tacitus. In each case, analysis of the interplay of form and function takes us to the heart of the process by which the author's aims are realised. The book also considers the functions of texts within speeches, the functions of not speaking and the representation of oratorical 'form' in Roman sculpture. An original and wide-ranging study, Form and Function in Roman Oratory will appeal to scholars and students with interests in Roman oratory, historiography, philosophy and art.
