David Walker’s critical edition, with introduction, facing translation and notes, is the first to appear in English. The conception of rhetoric which Vives elaborates in the De ratione dicendi differs significantly from that which is found in other rhetorical treatises written during the humanist Renaissance. Rhetoric as Vives conceives it is part of the discipline of self-knowledge, and involves a distinct way of thinking about the way kinds of rhetorical style manifested modes of human life. Moving as it did from the concrete particulars of a man’s style to their abstractable implications, the study of rhetoric was for him a form of moral thinking which enabled the student to develop a critical framework for understanding the world he lived inches.Selected Works of Juan Luis Vives11.Rhetoric, AncientRhetoric, Ancient.808WALKER DAVID J131093Vives Juan Luis1492-1540330633Vives Juan Luis1492-1540330633Walker David(Translator of works on philosophy),NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910796544603321J.L.
