Description
Summary:The paper presents an overview of the historical development and importance of the epideictic genre in rhetoric. Aristotle divided rhetoric into deliberative, judicial and epideictic, distinguishing between them according to their end goal, according to the means of argumentation, according to the dominant means of persuasion, and according to temporal orientation (deliberative rhetoric is directed to the future, judicial to the past, and epideictic to the present). The paper presents the rhetorical specificities of the epideictic genre and emphasizes the importance and value of this type of speech in both classical and modern rhetoric.
