Ancient evidence on Aristotle's lost Technon Synagoge demonstrates that it was cast in the format of a doxography; moreover, a passage from Syrianus about Corax, who first named the rhetorical 'prooimion', is shown to be a fragment from the Synagoge. Contrary to contemporary 'revised histories' of rhetoric, Corax of Syracuse is no legendary figure.

Abstract
Ancient evidence on Aristotle's lost Technon Synagoge demonstrates that it was cast in the format of a doxography; moreover, a passage from Syrianus about Corax, who first named the rhetorical 'prooimion', is shown to be a fragment from the Synagoge. Contrary to contemporary 'revised histories' of rhetoric, Corax of Syracuse is no legendary figure.File in questo prodotto:
