- Double-weighted statement
- This monograph. of 227, pages contains eight article-length arguments for substantive conclusions. In sum, this is a defensive interpretation of Aristotle's views in two major categories: (1) how we should analyse rhetoric and its value; and (2) how we should analyse emotions and the proper persuasive value of arousing them. Each of these areas individually is large and complex, such that developing and defending an interpretative and philosophical view of them constitutes a major, extended project significantly more demanding than a single article. Together they certainly do so.
