Description

Explore a detailed cultural history of renaissance rhetoric with this academic volume from De Gruyter. This book examines literary theory through the lens of classical rhetorical pillars, including imagination (inventio), generic theory (dispositio), style (elocutio), mnemonic architecture (memoria), and representation (actio). Using Shakespeare's works as primary illustrations, the text provides a deep look into how these elements shaped the era. The study also extends beyond text to analyze the intermedial rhetoric found in painting and music, alongside the broader rhetorical ideology of culture. It is an essential resource for scholars of history, drama, and literary criticism.
