Anonymus seguerianus и „аристотелизмът“ в реториката на Късната античност..
Anonymus Seguerianus and the ‘Aristotelianism’ in the Rhetoric of the Late Antiquity

Summary/Abstract: The rhetoric in Late Antiquity is mostly Platonic in its philosophical fundaments and many of the rhetoricians identify themselves as ‘platonists’. In spite of this, Aristotelianism, the Aristotelianclassification of rhetorical genres and the inclination towards logical argumentation, are not completely absent. This research is dedicated to one of the rare texts which show a keen interest in these problems – the so-called Anonymus Seguerianus (2nd or 3rd c. A.D.).This text is considered by most modern scholars (FriedrichSolmsen, George Kennedy, Michel Patillon et al.) as the main representative of the ‘Aristotelian’ rhetoric in the Late Antiquity. I will make an attempt to challenge this well-established thesis. To this end, an analysis of the treatise’s functions will be made as well as acritical survey of its sources.
