Commenting on Aristotle's Rhetoric, from antiquity to the present = Commenter la Rh�etorique d'Aristotle, de l'antiquit�e �a la p�eriode contemporaine

Summary: The present volume brings together thirteen articles as so many chapters of a book, devoted to the history, methods, and practices of the commentaries that have been written on Aristotle?s 'Rhetoric'. Examining both the linguistic and factual background, these contributions attempt to insert each of the commentaries into its particular historical, political, social, philosophical, and pedagogical context.0The historical periods and geographical areas that arise? from Greco-Roman antiquity to Heidegger?s philosophy, from the Syriac and Arabic traditions to the Western world? make it possible, in sum, not only to indicate how the Rhetoric has been read and interpreted, but also to offer general perspectives on the practice of explicating ancient texts
