Libro Tacitus The Sententious Historian di Patrick Sinclair

Trama libro

This text analyzes the "sententia" as a prominent and revealing rhetorical device with historically conditioned social values. The device is used skilfully in Tacitus's "Annales" Books 1-6, and is also examined in the writings of Anaximenes, Aristotle, Cicero, the elder Seneca and others.
