{"product_id":"rhetoric-poetics-in-antiquity-jeffrey-walker-9780195130355","title":"Rhetoric \u0026 Poetics in Antiquity","description":"This book offers a counter-traditional account of the history of both rhetoric and poetics. In reply to traditional rhetorical histories, which view \"rhetoric\" primarily as an art of practical civic oratory, the book argues in four extended essays that epideictic-poetic eloquence was central, even fundamental, to the rhetorical tradition in antiquity. In essence, Jeffrey Walker's study accomplishes what in the world of rhetoric studies amounts to a revolution: he demonstrates that in antiquity rhetoric and poetry could not be viewed separately.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Walker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195130359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195130355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.06d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2001 pg. 1265","brand":"Jeffrey Walker","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48517272895743,"sku":"9780195130355","price":235.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a271ff91-3927-4ed1-b8fa-6a0f6cc0fbcc.jpg?v=1778731052","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rhetoric-poetics-in-antiquity-jeffrey-walker-9780195130355","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
