The authors of these treatises were seeking to find means to express their arguments that built on authoritative models of their predecessors. By examining the range of expressive resources used in their expository prose, James Cross demonstrates how oral tradition and written techniques were deployed to help the writers develop a case. The book offers fresh insights into the oral debating culture and experiments in persuasion which characterise the ancient Greek world of the late fifth-century BCE. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42943974670411,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":8756.74,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/th\/products\/9781472474155","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
