Using different genres and discourses, they forged the emerging genre of the 'protreptic'. Simply put, protreptic discourses use a 'rhetoric of conversion' that urges a young person to adopt a specific philosophy among many in order to live a truly good life. Collins argues that the Plato, Isocrates, and Aristotle used protreptic discourse to market philosophical practices and to define and legitimise a new cultural institution: the school of higher learning. 606 $aRhetoric, Ancient 606 $aExhortation (Rhetoric) 615 0$aRhetoric, Ancient. 615 0$aExhortation (Rhetoric) 676 $a808.00938 700 $aCollins$b James Henderson$01015735 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996213769903316 996 $aExhortations to philosophy$92373117 997 $aUNISA
