abstract

  • The article analyses the rhetorical dimension of declamation 297 and explores the
    possibility that there is a certain bond between discourse and contemporary legal tradition. As will be seen, the declamation has its starting point in the crime of "iniuria" and, around it, a peculiar scenery is built at the service of persuasion and "delectatio".
