Abstract

Several testimonia on Hermagoras (II B.C.) imply that he defined the scope of rhetoric quite broadly, rather than narrowly as was normal in later rhetoricians: for such a definition, more theoretical than practical, the precedent was Aristotle in the Rhetoric, which Hermagoras can have known only indirectly.
