This online [[rhetoric]], provided by Dr. Gideon Burton of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigham_Young_University Brigham Young University], is a guide to the terms of classical and renaissance rhetoric.

This site is intended to help beginners, as well as [[experts]], make sense of [[rhetoric]], both on the small scale ([[definitions]] and examples of specific terms) and on the large scale (the [[purposes]] of rhetoric, the [[patterns]] into which it has fallen historically as it has been taught and practiced for 2000+ years).
