Ancient declamation, the art of delivering speeches based on fictitious scenarios, is a complex practice that intersects multiple modern disciplines. In recent decades, its intricacies and the potential for scholarly exploration have gained recognition. This volume features thirteen essays from an international group of scholars, examining the multidisciplinary aspects of declamation, particularly its interactions with rhetoric, literature, law, and ethics. The essays complement one another while addressing diverse topics. Brescia, Lentano, and Lupi delve into the social roles defined by declamation, highlighting the tensions and expectations involved. Quiroga Puertas and Tomassi focus on how rhetorical material adapts to contemporary realities. Schwartz investigates the blurred lines between declamation and courtroom practices. The relationship between law and declamation is further explored by Berti, Breij, and Johansson. Pasetti provides a narratological analysis of poisoning cases, while Citti identifies the representation of natural law within declamatory texts. Huelsenbeck evaluates declamatory language through a case of extreme cruelty, emphasizing its role in performance. Zinsmaier discusses the discourse surrounding torture in both rhetorical and legal frameworks, showcasing the rich interplay between these fields.
