Abstract

A significant contribution to the teaching of rhetoric and the development of technical aspects of rhetorical theory in late antiquity was made by rhetoricians with a Platonist philosophical commitment. This chapter surveys the phenomenon, considering the relationship between rhetoric as taught by philosophers and by rhetoricians with no known philosophical allegiance, and the practical and ideological reasons for philosophers’ engagement with rhetoric. 1 These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
