Overview

Analysis reveals rhetoric's role in shaping truth in Athenian democracy, indicating ongoing tensions in post-truth contexts.

  • Plato's modal power theory suggests rhetoric can create a singular truth, whereas Aristotle emphasizes the role of probability and persuasion.
  • This article highlights the evolution of rhetorical practices within the context of post-truth politics and society.
  • Exploration of (neo)rhetoric indicates its potential to reshape democratic discourse in light of contemporary challenges.
