About the author

English rhetorician, logician, economist, academic and theologian who also served as a reforming Church of Ireland Archbishop of Dublin. He was a leading Broad Churchman, a prolific and combative author over a wide range of topics. Whately was an important figure in the revival of Aristotelian logic in the early nineteenth century. Whately's view of rhetoric as essentially a method for persuasion became an orthodoxy, challenged in mid-century by Henry Noble Day.

Reviews

[Blunt Of Mercia · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good, but the prose style is exceedingly dense, not for the faint of heart! Certainly interesting if one is interested in the history of education, or logic.
