Summary Offers a study of the nature of topoi, the conceptual ancestors of modern argument schemes, between Aristotle and Cicero. This title presents a treatment of Aristotle's and Cicero's methods of topoi and, by exploring their relationship, it illuminates an area of ancient rhetoric and logic which has been obscured for more than 2000 years
