Based on material from Byzantine and Old Church Slavonic homilies and from Byzantine rhetorical commentaries, the book redefines and expands our understanding of both Byzantine and Old Church Slavonic prose rhythm. It positions rhetorical rhythm at the intersection of prose and poetry and explores its role in argumentation and persuasion, suggesting that rhetorical rhythm can carry across linguistic boundaries, and in general aims to demonstrate the stylistic and argumentative importance of rhythm in rhetorical practice. Along the way, it challenges the entrenched separation between content and style and emphasizes the role of rhythm as a tool of invention and a means of creating shared emotional experience"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000910889 650_0 $$aByzantine literature$$xHistory and criticism. 000910889 650_0 $$aRhetoric, Medieval$$zByzantine Empire$$xHistory and criticism. 000910889 650_0 $$aRhythm in literature. 000910889 852__ $$bebk 000910889 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1303731$$zOnline Access 000910889 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:910889$$pGLOBAL_SET 000910889 980__ $$aEBOOK 000910889 980__ $$aBIB 000910889 982__ $$aEbook 000910889 983__ $$aOnline
