What is logos? What is the telos of logos? How many Greek words can we use in one episode? We discuss all this and much more in this episode. This episode is sponsored by Informal Logic, the easy-to-use system for identifying nonsensical reasoning The untranslated Latin/Greek phrase is, "διὸ καὶ φιλοσοφώτερον καὶ σπουδαιότερον ποίησις ἱστορίας ἐστίν: ἡ μὲν γὰρ ποίησις μᾶλλον τὰ καθόλου, ἡ δ᾽ ἱστορία τὰ καθ᾽ ἕκαστον λέγει.” Rhetoric-O-Rama is a fun and educational introduction to rhetoric by two college professors, Dr. David R. Dewberry and Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee. Each episode features a discussion on some aspect of rhetoric, some untranslated Latin or Greek, and then some tasty extra bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your own rhetoric. Whether you listen for fun or to learn the difference between Hermagoras of Temnos from Hermogenes of Tarsus, we hope you enjoy our podcast and support our made up sponsors. Dave & Tim are professors of communication in New Jersey. After each show, they get a cheeseburger and celebrate the time Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s.
