Note 43 — Chapter IV · THE TEACHING OF RHETORIC
Reading edition
The history of declamatio as a direct and an indirect influence is reserved for a later volume. It is summarized suggestively by Bornecque in both the introduction to his edition of Seneca and his treatise cited in foot-note 27. Walden’s ample summaries of the work of Libanius (4th century) in his Universities of Ancient Greece corroborate what Bornecque says of St. Augustine.
