The Political Languages of Western Civilisation: Rhetoric, Democracy and Populism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788869774348)

This essay begins with the study of ancient rhetoric to develop some philosophical reflections on which to base a historical reconstruction that will lead us, through the various definitions of rhetoric and all its practical, ethical, social and political implications, to the world of today, where we will find the cue to question the more or less rhetorical languages developed within the democracies and the so-called populisms that characterize the West - or rather, what remains of it.
