These serve as the basis for detailed analyses of verbal and pictorial works of the Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern Age. Their theoretical basis is the tradition of classical rhetoric with its principal representatives (Aristotle, Cicero, Quintilian) and their reception history. The ‘enargetic’ approach to the arts may be described as rhetoric of presence and display, or aesthetics of evidence and imagination. Visual imagination plays a major role in the concepts of effect in oratory, poetry, and drama of the Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern Age. Its implementations are manifested in the Second Sophistic and in the Early Modern Age, there above all in the works of William Shakespeare.International studies in the history of rhetoric ;v. 4.Art and literatureGreek literatureInfluenceLatin literatureInfluenceRhetoric, AncientUt pictura poesis (Aesthetics)Art and literature.Greek literatureInfluence.Latin literatureInfluence.Rhetoric, Ancient.Ut pictura poesis (Aesthetics)700.1Plett Heinrich F701816MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785603603321Enargeia in classical antiquity and the early modern age3784989UNINA
