CAS 505 โ€“ Historical Development of Rhetorical Theory

Extending from Tiro (an enslaved person in Ciceroโ€™s household) to President Obama, this seminar will attend to some of the infra/structures of preservationโ€”replication, reputation, canonization, quotation, citation, allusion, education, tradition, translation, comparisonโ€”that have kept Cicero circulating in culture (including popular culture and the academic culture of rhetorical studies).

N.B.: Participants will be expected to acquire several academic monographs.
