    The dispute concerning rhetoric in Hellenistic thought
    For a skeptical peripatetic
    Who Is Afraid of the Rhetor? an Analysis and Exegesis of Socrates and Gorgias' Conversation in Plato's Gorgias
    • The dialogue between Socrates and Gorgias serves as a crucial foundation for understanding the themes of rhetoric and its implications in Plato's Gorgias. While often overlooked in favor of Socrates' later discussions with Polus and Callicles, this initial conversation is argued to be a key prelude that encapsulates the essence of the entire dialogue. The study challenges traditional interpretations, emphasizing the significance of this exchange in conveying Plato's philosophical message about rhetoric.

      For a skeptical peripatetic
    • Diese Studie rekonstruiert die hellenistische philosophische Debatte über die Rhetorik. In der heterogenen Quellenlage gelingt es Liebersohn, zwei Phasen in den Debatten um den Wert der Rhetorik und zwei Typen von Debatten zu unterscheiden: eine innerphilosophische und eine zwischen Philosophen und Rhetoren. Zunächst wird das genaue Umfeld dieses Disputs untersucht, also die Orte, Daten und Personen. Im Anschluss werden fünf Hauptargumente gegen Rhetorik rekonstruiert, die alle vom Anspruch der Rhetorik, zu den Künsten zu gehören, ausgehen. Diese fünf Gegenargumente sind: the exclusivity of teaching argument; the falsa argument; the benefit argument; the end argument; the materia argument.
