The five canons of rhetoric
Disciplines
> Argument > The five canons of rhetoric
The Romans, as well as the Greeks were interested in argument and rhetoric.
The five canons of rhetoric appear in a first century Latin text, Rhetorica
ad Herennium, which contained four books that detail the rhetorical approach
of the day, and was highly influential for many subsequent centuries:
- Invention: Finding ways to persuade.
- Arrangement: Putting together the structure of a coherent argument.
- Style: Presenting the argument to stir the
emotions.
- Memory: Speaking without having to prepare or
memorize a speech.
- Delivery: Making effective use of voice, gesture, etc.
