As democracy evolved in Ancient Athens, the ability to speak for one's self before the assembled populace became the distinguishing mark and crucial skill of the free citizen. The Greeks then developed a theoretical framework and an educational curriculum for eloquence which was preserved by the Romans, passed into the Middle Ages and formed the basis for the traditional liberal arts. To study both the ancient theory and practice of eloquence, students will read speeches of Demosthenes and Cicero as well as historical and theoretical works about rhetoric and education. Students themselves will put these theories into practice in a series of speeches and presentations. Prerequisites: Freshman English. Same as FLET 204. Speaking intensive. Offered alternate years. Three hours. Mr. McCaffrey.
