‎TRIALS OF CHARACTER The Eloquence of Ciceronian Ethos‎

‎The University of North Carolina Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1988. Hardcover. 0807817597 . Very light bump to 1 corner. Else book is fine. Sticker residue to front panel of DJ. ; 0.88 x 9.48 x 6.38 Inches; 224 pages; By its very nature the art of oratory involves character. Verbal persuasion entails the presentation of a persona by the speaker that affects an audience for good or ill. In this book James May explores the role and extent of Cicero's use of ethos and demonstrates its persuasive effect. May discusses the importance of ethos not just in classical rhetorical theory but also in the social political and judicial milieu of ancient Rome and then applies his insights to the oratory of Cicero. Ciceronian ethos was a complex blend of Roman tradition Cicero's own personality and selected features of Greek and Roman oratory. More than any other ancient literary genre oratory dealt with constantly changing circumstances with a wide variety of rhetorical challenges. An orator's success or failure as well as the artistic quality of his orations was largely the direct result of his responses to these circumstances and challenges. Acutely aware of his audience and its cultural heritage and steeped in the rhetorical traditions of his predecessors Cicero employed rhetorical ethos with uncanny success. May analyzes individual speeches from four different periods of Cicero's career tracing changes in the way Cicero depicted character both his own and others' as a source of persuasion changes intimately connected with the vicissitudes of Cicero's career and personal life. He shows that ethos played a major role in almost every Ciceronian speech that Cicero's audiences were conditioned by common beliefs about character and finally that Cicero's rhetorical ethos became a major source for persuasion in his oratory. .

Else Fine. ; Xvi 387pp. This volume is a collection of original contributions that address the problem of words and their meaning.

Although all of these disciplines have to tackle the issue so far there is no overarching methodology agreed upon by researchers. The aim of the volume is to provide answers based on empirical linguistics methods that are relevant across all the disciplines and provide a bridge among researchers looking at word meaning from different angles. ; Studies in Natural Language Processing; 387 pages; Signed by Contributor .

DJ spine sunned with faint yellowing to back panel. ; 231 pages; The Songs of Homer Cambridge University Press 1962 was a major contribution to Homeric studies establishing important theories about the composition structure and transmission of the monumental poems. In this 1976 volume Geoffrey Kirk returns to Homer but the themes are largely different. He considers in particular the nature of oral and epic poetry and the meaning of an oral tradition. There are problems here of interest not only to classicists and Homeric specialists but also to students of English and comparative literature and to anthropologists concerned with the literature of traditional societies. Those pieces that were previously published were revised and unified for the volume. The longest section on 'the oral and the literary epic' is derived from the J. H. Gray Lectures which Professor Kirk delivered in Cambridge in 1974 and which had not been previously published in any form. . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎
