Material Logic
Classical Rhetoric
Aristotle's Rhetoric is known as one of the finest works on the classical concept of rhetoric--a subject's own style or forms of expression. This course is an accompanied 'tour' during this book, conveying in simpler terms what Artistotle's arguments are. Focusing on the content rather than the technique of rhetoric, this course will follow Aristotle's concern with the 'what' of communication. Following the chapters of Rhetoric, open-ended questions focus on questions that may be answered from the book and critical thinking questions. Quotes, selected readings, weekly writing assignments (research and evaluative) and Latin translations are all included, helping students to gain a thorough and unique understanding of this classical tradition. 175 non-reproducible pages, softcover. Answer key sold separately (stock # 636452).
The best teacher is a good book, and this self-guided course introduces your high school students to one of the greatest books on communication ever written. Designed as a companion to Aristotle's Rhetoric, Cothran's workbook features reading lessons and comprehension questions; research and evaluative writing assignments; figure of speech lessons; logic and Latin review questions; and case studies focusing on types of speech covered by Aristotle. 174 pages, spiralbound softcover from Memoria.
Featuring Martin Cothran, author of the sold-separately Classical Rhetoric with Aristotle, these DVDs include Mr. Cothran's verbal instructions on every aspect of the course, including supplementary exercises and helpful graphics. 9th Grade-Adult. Slides are available for download on the publisher's website.
