Listening to the Logos
Speech and the Coming of Wisdom in Ancient Greece
About the Author
Reviews
"Listening to the Logos is the magnum opus from Christopher Johnstone that scholars of classical rhetoric have been waiting for. Johnstone gives us a comprehensive account of the evolving relationship between wisdom and reasoned speech across some four centuries of Greek thought, from Homer to Aristotle. The synthesis of primary texts is unparalleled in previous rhetorical studies and the narrative crafted in these pages sparkles with the originality and insight we've come to expect from Johnstone. His study moves with remarkable thoroughness and pithy prose to advance our knowledge of how wisdom was formed and expressed in the classical world."—Edward Schiappa, Paul W. Frenzel Chair in Liberal Arts and Department of Communication Studies chair, University of Minnesota
