Back in print after 17 years, this is a concise history of rhetoric as it relates to structure, genre, and style, with special reference to English literature and literary criticism from Ancient Greece to the end of the 18th century.
Brian Vickers has provided what has been missing all along, a just, evenhanded, and comprehensive treatment of this subject. . . .Vickers manages neither to despise rhetoric nor to claim too much for it as an aid to our understanding." — Russell M. Brown, Renaissance and Reformation
