Abstract

The bond between law and rhetoric is as old as the subjects themselves. Especially the ancient works on legal rhetoric afford, however, a too narrow depiction of the interaction between law and rhetoric as a purely instrumental discipline of communication in court. In this paper I challenge this narrow understanding of legal rhetoric and outline three distinct frames of understanding the relation between law and rhetoric
