All men are mortal, and Socrates is a man. Therefore, all men are Socrates. Wait... In this episode, we discuss the art and technic of "Aeolus": rhetoric and "enthymemic." Topics include Stuart Gilbert and his schema, rhetoric as a classical art form, the Jesuits and rhetoric, the extremely comprehensive lists of rhetorical forms found in "Aeolus", how "Aeolus" is structured like a classical rhetorical treatise, just a smidge of Aristotle's Rhetoric, how the rhetorical examples found in "Aeolus" line up with Aristotle's categories of rhetoric, Socrates' ideas about writing v. oratory, what the heck an enthymeme is, a crash course in syllogistic logic, whether or not Portland has kept itself weird, how enthymemes can be used to persuade can be used to persuade (or manipulate), why no one can agree what an enthymeme actually is, and where to find enthymemes in "Aeolus" and Ulysses at large.On the Blog:Rhetoric and the Enthymeme in AeolusBlooms & Barnacles Social Media:Facebook | Twitter | InstagramSubscribe to Blooms & Barnacles:Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube
