Abstract

In this book important aspects of the rhetorical dimension of Greek tragedy are analyzed with an updated approach to the subject. These elements include rhetoric linked to emotions and gender, affective communication, silences, visual euphemisms, the influence of progymnasmata, the rhetoric of secondary characters (including the messenger) and the presence of the term enarges in Greek theatre.
