Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. This was the first book which presented, in a complete manner, a general theory of composition then current in Renaissance England. Its particular contribution is the reorganization of the two hundred figures of speech, distinguished by Renaissance rhetoricians, into a simple, understandable pattern basic in Aristotle's Rhetoric: grammar logos, pathos and ethos. The purpose of the book is to provide a handbook of the theory of composition then current during the English Renaissance and to show Shakespeare's use of this theory by simple illustration from his plays and poems. The book is addressed to the wide audience of teachers of English and Renaissance literature, the philologist, the Shakespearian scholar, and to students and teachers of all Romance languages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51376100442335,"sku":"9781614274896","price":30.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/6RQFcZSz7v9781614274896.webp?v=1789214193"},{"product_id":"the-trivium-in-college-composition-and-reading-paperback","title":"The Trivium in College Composition and Reading - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e2014 Reprint of 1948 Third Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. The \"Trivium\" is a systematic method of critical thinking for deriving certainty from any information coming into the mind via the five senses. In medieval universities, the Trivium comprised the three subjects that were taught first, specifically in this order: grammar, logic and rhetoric. While most textbooks are lucky to enjoy a shelf life of three or four years, \"The Trivium\" followed a different path. In 1947, when Columbia University Press published her celebrated dissertation, \"Shakespeare's Use of the Arts of Language,\" Sister Miriam Joseph's previously published textbook gained wider notice. And since then, The \"Trivium\" continues to be rediscovered by new generations of writers and teachers. This dense, authoritative textbook takes all of Aristotle's teachings on logic, grammar, and rhetoric, and some of his teachings of poetics, adds some of the insights gained in the subsequent centuries, and presents it in a well-organized flow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51376102310111,"sku":"9781614276869","price":20.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/TGqlpDfdhc9781614276869.webp?v=1789214198"},{"product_id":"shakespeares-use-of-the-arts-of-language-hardcover","title":"Shakespeare's Use of the Arts of Language - Hardcover","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFirst published in 1947, Shakespeare's Use of the Arts of Language is a landmark study that reveals how deeply William Shakespeare's artistry was shaped by the classical disciplines of grammar, logic, and rhetoric-the \"trivium\" of Renaissance education.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSister Miriam Joseph, a distinguished scholar of English and the classics, demonstrates with clarity and precision how Shakespeare absorbed the techniques of formal rhetoric and transformed them into instruments of poetic power and dramatic expression.
