It highlights the parallel development of the rhetorical tradition that became understood, on the one hand, as a domain of style and persuasive speech, associated with the figure of Lysias, and, on the other, as a kind of philosophical enterprise which makes significant demands on moral and political education in antiquity, epitomized in the work of Isocrates. There are two pivotal moments in which the two rhetoricians were pitted against each other as representatives of different modes of cultural discourse: Athens in the fourth century BCE, as memorably portrayed in Plato's Phaedrus, and Rome in the first century BCE when Dionysius of Halicarnassus proposes to create from the united Lysianic and Isocratean rhetoric the foundation for the ancient rhetorical tradition"-- Provided by publisher. 606 $aRhetoric, Ancient 615 0$aRhetoric, Ancient. 676 $a808.00938 700 $aViidebaum$b Laura$01368453 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910687997103321 996 $aCreating the Ancient Rhetorical Tradition$93394190 997 $aUNINA
