Proving fruitful in various applications throughout its two
millennia of predominance, the rhetorical techne appears to have
entertained a particularly symbiotic interrelation with drama. With
contributions from (among others) a Classicist, historical,
linguistic, musicological, operatic, cultural and literary studies
perspective, this publication offers interdisciplinary assessments
of specific reciprocities between the system of rhetoric and
dramatic works: tracing the longue duree of this nexus-highlighting
its Ancient foundations, its various Early Modern formations, as
well as certain configurations enduring to this day-enables
describing shifting degrees of rhetoricity; approaching it from an
interdisciplinary viewpoint facilitates focusing on the often
sidelined rhetorical phenomena located beyond the textual plane,
specifically memoria and actio; tackling this interchange from
various viewpoints and with diverse emphases, a long-lasting and
highly prolific cross-fertilization between drama and rhetoric is
rendered visible. In tendering a balanced panorama of both detailed
case studies and descriptive overviews, this volume also points
toward terrain yet to be charted in the scholarship to come. The
volume was prepared in co-operation with the ERC Advanced Grant
Project Early Modern European Drama and the Cultural Net
(DramaNet).
