The Legacy of Aristotelian Enthymeme provides a historical-logical
analysis of Aristotle's rhetorical syllogism, the enthymeme,
through its Medieval and Renaissance interpretations. Bringing
together notions of credibility and proof, an international team of
scholars highlight the fierce debates around this form of
argumentation during two key periods for Aristotle's beliefs.
Reflecting on medieval and humanist thinkers, philosophers, poets
and theologians, this volume joins up dialectical and rhetorical
argumentation as key to the enthymeme's interpretation and shows
how the enthymeme was the source of a major interpretive conflict.
As a method for achieving the standards for proof and credibility
that persist across diverse fields of study today including the
law, politics, medicine and morality, this book takes in Latin and
Persian interpretations of the enthymeme and casts contemporary
argumentation in a new historical light.
