OverviewThis study examines Gorgias' radical alternative to the philosophical view of the use and abuse of language. In the sequel it investigates Plato's counterblast and further crucial episodes in the later history of the controversy. Since the issue of gender is from the outset inextricably bound up with the quarrel between rhetoric and philosophy, the book concludes with a description of the connections between the fight over persuasive power and recent feminist debate.
