Item description from seller

pp. 94-107. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Authors names handwritten on cover, otherwise very good and clean. - From the text: There is no proper history of ancient rhetoric which traces the development of rhetorical theory step by step, as do the histories of ancient literature or of ancient philosophy in their fields. George Kennedys The Art of Persuasion in Greece (Princeton 1963: henceforth Kennedy) does enter into some historical problems, but it only traces the larger historical developments and docs not pay enough attention to changes and developments within the shorter periods. Josef Martins Antike Rhetorik: Technik und Methode (Munich 1974) is essentially what its title signifies; it treats the whole of ancient rhetoric as if it were only one consistent system with slight variations from period to period. Heinrich Lausbergs Handbuch der literarischen Rhetorik (2 vols., Munich 1960) is the most useful collection of ancient sources from the various periods in the history of rhetoric, but again, it is arranged systematically and not historically. Ludwig Radermachers Artium Scriptores (Vienna 1951; henceforth AS) has been available to students of pre-Aristotelian rhetoric for over forty years. It is not an easy book to use, but it does contain a more complete collection of sources for that early period than any other work. It has not been used as often and as properly as it should. A more careful use of Radcrmachcr by earlier scholars might have deprived us of the necessity and the pleasure of writing much of this article. Our own discussion, since it deals with one small point in ancient rhetorical theory, is based on a wider range of ancient sources than Radermachers discussion of the same point in his larger context, and goes beyond his conclusions; but we have found it reassuring that his conclusions point in the direction our work has taken.
