Systematic rhetorical training and techniques for influencing listeners' emotions
Marcus Fabius Quintilianus was a Roman rhetorician, poet, lawyer, writer, and author of Instructions to an Orator, the most comprehensive textbook of public speaking that has come down to us from antiquity. This book was studied in all rhetorical schools, along with the writings of Cicero.
"Instruction to an orator" is a classic work that has gone down in history as a generalization of the entire ancient experience of public speaking. The author describes in detail the rhetorical techniques that allow the speaker to influence the emotions and psyche of listeners.
Quintilian criticized his contemporaries, who relied only on their natural gift and considered the painstaking work of mastering theoretical knowledge and practical techniques of rhetoric unnecessary. He believed that the key to a speaker's success lay in systematic learning.
For many centuries, Quintilian's "Instructions to the Speaker" served as the main textbook for those wishing to master the art of eloquence. It is still relevant today, as it contains valuable knowledge and practical advice that will help the speaker achieve success in his work.
