[nice tight clean book, with no discernible shelfwear, tiny smudge on front cover; jacket a little browned at the edges, minor wear along top edge]. "Here for the first time within one cover [sic] is a survey of major medieval theories of communication, together with their applications to medieval literary works in Old English, Italian, German, Old French, Latin, and Middle English. The rhetorical tradition that had begun in ancient Greece was transmitted to the middle ages largely through the influence of the Roman theoretician Cicero. But medieval theorists put their own special stamp on this tradition, evolving a whole new set of adaptive rhetorical genres to deal with the challenges offered by verse-writing, letter-writing, and preaching." .
