Editorial Reviews

"Professor Kennedy, equipped with a rare command of ancient rhetoric, provides us here with a dossier of theoretical Greek treatises on the progymnasmata, put precisely and crisply into English. He thereby gives broad access to the world of the intermediate ancient rhetorical curriculum, so important for the formation of mentality and discourse in the Roman world, Byzantium, and even pre-modern Europe. Students from a variety of disciplines will profit greatly from his efforts."
