John Kinsella's essays are concerned with culture, place, and poetic language. From the 'city' to the 'bush', and with 'prospect' and 'refuge' of landscape in mind, his focus is up close. Looking at region through an international lens, he examines subjects as diverse as the pastoral tradition, the flag, forest protests, the meanings of the letterbox, the Western Australian wheatbelt, racism and opera. Describing himself as an international regionalist, in contradistinction to a nationalist, he is always willing to challenge his audience. This gathering of John Kinsella's writings about the intersections of location and writing is a rich contribution to the project of a new language for country . . . John Kinsella's mind starts with a convention and then proceeds to investigate it, testing a settled term like the pastoral, for instance, against his deep knowledge of the inner veins of Australian poetry, and his memory of wheatbins and Nyungar stookers. In an age when monolingualism and monoculturalism have become the watchwords of the powerful, it is a liberation to read these essays in passionate individualism. - Philip Mead

The book addresses contemporary views of rhetoric, of its history, and of its impoverished protocol. But its major focus is on reconstructing the past through centering on three documents in particular: Cicero's De oratore (55 BC), Erasmus' De copia (1534), and Thomas Wilson's Discourse on Usury (1572). These often misread works, among others, reveal the contrarianism at the heart of traditional rhetorical invention, in which both, or all, sides of a question must be given a fair hearing. Students of the history of rhetoric, antiquity, the English Renaissance, Cicero, Erasmus, or Thomas Wilson, as well as teachers of composition and even undergraduate debaters will find something of interest in this book.

'Moral character, so to say, constitutes the most effective means of proof.' In ancient Greece, rhetoric was at the centre of public life. Many writers attempted to provide manuals to help improve debating skills, but it was not until Aristotle produced The Art of Rhetoric in the 4th century bc that the subject had a true masterpiece. As he considered the role of emotion, reason, and morality in speech, Aristotle created essential guidelines for argument and prose style that would influence writers for more than two millennia. Brilliantly explained and carefully reasoned, The Art of Rhetoric remains as relevant today as it was in the assemblies of ancient Athens.

This book begins by noting some of the diverse ways in which the term rhetoric is currently used and shows some of the relationships between these uses. The chapters which follow seek to elucidate these relationships by means of the fortunes of rhetoric. From a study of the rise and development of rhetorical theory and practice in Greek and Roman times, the book goes on to survey the impact of rhetoric on literature (chiefly English literature) down to the present day, paying particular attention to the importance of rhetoric in education, and to the rhetorical aspects of Elizabethan and seventeenth century literature. Some account is taken of the hostility to rhetoric which began to gather force from about 1660 onwards ; the final chapter indicates some of the ways in which the study of rhetoric has recently been revived and remodeled, and its bearings on the practice and theory of literary criticism.
