Description
This collection of essays provides examples of modern scholarship on rhetoric in the Renaissance. Lawrence Green, Lisa Jardine, Kees Meerhoff, Dilwyn Knox, Brian Vickers, George Hunter, Peter Mack, Cavid Norbrook and Pat Rubin look at the reception of Aristotle's "Rhetoric" in the Renaissance; the place of rhetoric in Erasmus's career, Melanchthon's teaching and 16th-century Protestant schools; the rhetoric textbook; and the use of rhetoric in Raphael, Renaissance drama, Elizabethan romance and 17th-century political writing. Peter Mack is the co-editor (with Edward Chaney) of "England and the Continental Renaissance: Essays in Honour of J.B. Trapp".
