From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Dust jacket somewhat rubbed and bleached with a few little damages and small staining, sticker residue on front cover, otherwise very good. / Schutzumschlag etwas berieben und verblichen mit kleinen Beschädigungen und kleiner Anschmutzung, Stickerrückstand auf dem vorderen Einband, sonst sehr gut. - Although Cicero's Philippics are his most mature speeches, they have received little attention as works of oratory. On the other hand, scholars in this century have considered Cicero's attitudes toward and dependence on Demosthenes to be an issue of importance. Cecil Wooten brings together the two concerns, linking Cicero's use of Demosthenes as a model in the Philippics to precise analyses of style, rhetorical modulation, and narrative technique. In so doing he defines and demonstrates the effectiveness of a type of oratory that he terms "the rhetoric of crisis." Characteristic of such rhetoric is the polarization of a conflict into a dichotomy between good and evil, right and wrong. The orator adopts a stance in which he is obsessed with the struggle, with victory, and with the preservation of a tradition. He defines his present crisis in terms of patterns that have appeared in the past, which means that he is likely to choose from the past a model for his own response to the crisis. In Demosthenes, Cicero found a statesman who had faced a similar political situation. Demosthenes' speeches were directed against Philip of Macedon, whose expanding empire threatened the survival of the Greek city-states. Antony posed an equally severe threat to the Roman republic, and Cicero therefore turned to Demosthenes' speeches as a model for his own. The oratory of both was forged during a period of supreme crisis, at a critical turning point in civilization. "Tremendous talent, Wooten writes of this oratory, "is coupled with the instinct for survival, the most basic of human impulses, to produce a form of oratory that is characterized by extreme clarity of vision, purposefulness, vividness, and rapidity of presentation, an oratory that is clean and direct and decisive, in which the organic synthesis of content, arrangement, and style is remarkable and striking." - Cecil W. Wooten is associate professor of classics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. ISBN 9780807815588 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 383 Original hardcover with dust jacket.
