Aristotle: Art of Rhetoric, Volume XXII
Where to buy Aristotle: Art of Speechifying, Volume XXII books online?
Product Description
Aristotle, fantastic Greek philosopher, researcher, reasoner, and writer, born at Stagirus in 384 BCE, was the son of Nicomachus, a physician, and Phaestis. He studied under Plato at Athens and taught there (367–347); subsequently he spent three years at the court of a ex- pupil, Hermeias, in Asia Minor and at this time married Pythias, one of Hermeias’s relations. After some time at Mitylene, in 343–2 he was appointed by King Philip of Macedon to be tutor of his teen-aged son Alexander. After Philip’s death in 336, Aristotle became head of his own school (of ‘Peripatetics’), the Lyceum at Athens. Because of anti-Macedonian feeling there after Alexander’s death in 323, he withdrew to Chalcis in Euboea, where he died in 322.
Nearly all the works Aristotle prepared for publication are lost; the priceless ones extant are address-materials, notes, and memoranda (some are spurious). They can be categorized as follows: I Practical: Nicomachean Ethics; Fantastic Ethics (Magna Moralia); Eudemian Ethics; Politics; Economics (on the excellent of the family tree); On Virtues and Vices. II Logical: Categories; Analytics (Prior and Posterior); Interpretation; Refutations used by Sophists; Topica. III Physical: Twenty-six works (some suspect) including astronomy, generation and destruction, the senses, memory, sleep, dreams, life, facts about animals, etc. IV Metaphysics: on being as being. V Art: Speechifying and Poetics. VI Additional works including the Constitution of Athens; more works also of doubtful authorship. VII Fragments of various works such as dialogues on philosophy and literature; and of treatises on speechifying, politics and metaphysics.
The Loeb Classical Library edition of Aristotle is in twenty-three volumes.

Aristotle proved too much for me in this book. As a person who really has no background in Philosophy this was a tough read. He just seemed to be stating the same points over and over. This is not the book to start with if you are interested in Greek thought.

I read these works for a graduate seminar on Aristotle.
Definition of Speechifying- capacity of persuasion. Plato is critical of the Speechifying and the tragic poetry. Speechifying is approach to political public speeches in the forum. Plato thought that they clouded the mind and thus made a part of his critique of democracy in all-purpose. Plato thinks Socrates was killed by speechifying used by the Athenian democracy. Plato feared the danger of democracy. Poetry appeals to the base human emotions speechifying, and poetry block rational truth according to Plato. Speechifying is psychological force of language vs. logical force of language. Psychology leads people to judge things based on emotions. Speech must appeal to the masses in a democracy. Psychology is persuasion, logic is truth. Deduction and induction is arguing logically. Plato says speechifying is not a technç, (craft) nor is poetry, because they are undisciplined and not uniform in design. Thus, appeal to psychology and emotion can never be done away with in a democracy, thus Plato abhors them and democracy. Plato calls it sophistry this psychological appeal and democracy requires this to exist, so the problem persists. Plato is clear and consistent in his abhorrence of sophistry and democracy.
Aristotle’s Speechifying and Poetics are an alternative to Plato. Aristotle’s speechifying tries to strike a middle position. Aristotle says speechifying and poetry are a technç, the Speechifying is a handbook. Aristotle says speaker needs to appeal to appropriate information for the particular setting. Much like a lawyer’s argument, not just relying on facts, need to appeal to people’s emotions. Aristotle does know that speechifying can be used in a harmful way.
Aristotle lays out three features in speechifying:
1. Ethos= character of the speaker, also charisma, speaker earns the audience’s trust, use of body language.
2. Pathos= condition of the hearer.
3. Logos= essential impact on political persuasion, truth.
Thus, Plato’s concern by definition excludes speech because it deals with emotion. These three conditions must be in play for a speech to be successful. The speechifying contains a detailed analysis of the different human emotions and how to elicit them in a speech. Aristotle knows the speaker must be a excellent student of human scenery to tap into human emotions.
Epistçmç is scientific knowledge. Phronçsis is the capacity of the soul for using education, experience and habit all this is in the ethics. This is the same in political world so politics is not an episteme no scientific reasoning. The things that come up in politics are not deduced scientifically. In politics, humans use deliberation between several possible outcomes unlike math where there is only one right answer. Political speech is contentious because the scenery of politics is contentious.
There are two circumstances in speechifying.
1. Judicial speechifying has to do with the past like in a court case.
2. Deliberative speechifying has to do with the future, what choice should we make in political policies.
I recommend Aristotle’s works to anyone interested in obtaining a classical education, and persons interested in philosophy. Aristotle is one of the most vital philosophers and the standard that all others must be judged by.

I never received the book but I was charged for it the day I ordered it. I have emailed the seller twice with no response. I would like a refund immediately.

I bought this book because it was recommended for preaching. This book will teach you the “science of speech”. And there is a lot of excellent advice for persuasive language. If you are getting this book to supplement your preaching, let me recommend to you (2) fantastic books. First, Biblical Preaching by Haddon W. Robinson, this is the first book I bought when I started preaching earlier last year. It has been very helpful. The second book I would recommend would be, Power in the Pulpit, by Jerry Vines and Jim Shaddix. Hope this helps.
