Aristotle's Art of Rhetoric by Robert C Aristotle
One of the foundational works of Western culture, Art of Rhetoric has shaped our understanding of speech and persuasion for millennia now; this fresh translation makes it available anew for teacher of rhetoric, philosophy, politics, and intellectual history.
"Robert CBartlett has made Aristotle's Art of Rhetoric accessible to contemporary readers with his literal but elegant translation. His numerous notes that explain Aristotle's historical and literary allusions as well as the subtleties of Aristotle's Greek are indispensable for following Aristotle's text...As Bartlett leads us to expect, Aristotle's Rhetoric offers a healthy correction to current ways of thinking about politics and about what we can expect of political leaders."--Mary P. Nichols "Law & Liberty" "As Robert C. Bartlett makes clear in an interpretive essay appended to his splendid new translation, Aristotle's Rhetoric is itself a rhetorical tour de force....there is no better place to start than Bartlett's translation"-- "Claremont Review of Books"
