The Sixth Canon - Belletristic Rhetorical Theory and Its French Antecedents

Informationen zum Autor Barbara Warnick is associate professor of speech communication and graduate program coordinator at the University of Washington. She is translator of the 1984 edition of Fénelon's Letter to the French Academy. Klappentext Warnick concludes by arguing that the much-studied texts of Bernard Lamy, François Fénelon, Charles Rollin, Hugh Blair, Adam Smith, and George Campbell should be examined anew, in terms of psychology and aesthetics rather than in the traditional context of the five-canon model.
