Samenvatting

Probably dating from the first century AD, De Eloutione is an ancient treatise on good writing practices that draws on works by Aristotle and Theophrastus. It remained highly popular into the late Renaissance with such writers as John Milton among its exponents. This edition by William Rhys Roberts was the first English publication in 1902. The volume provides a facing-page translation of the original Greek text, supplemented with extensive notes, a glossary, and comprehensive introduction. While an important book for classicists and amateur readers of Greek, there is much here that students of rhetoric will also find interesting.
