Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Aristotle’s discussion of emotions in Book II of the Rhetoric provides modern scholarship with several lingering, but related, dilemmas. One dilemma concerns whether the text is a systematic treatise concerning the rhetorical art or whether it is merely a series of lecture notes on rhetorical technique. A second dilemma revolves around the question of whether the text should be classified, with the Poetics, as a productive art or whether it is more properly a text of politics and ethics. Third, and most relevant for this present discussion, is his discussion of emotions in Book II of the Rhetoric. Is this discussion a systematic analysis of emotions or is Aristotle simply introducing a random list of emotions used by rhetoricians to affect or even warp judgment in rhetorical speech? In other words, is Book II merely a discussion of ways to manipulate emotions without regard to larger questions of justice or truth in political speech?
