探究历史学的几个修辞学方面似乎有点荒唐,因为历史学陈述并不典型地包含在自亚里士多德以来就被认为由修辞学统治的类型之中。这些类型是审议会议、法庭和纪念性集会。这三种类型的陈述——审议的,司法的和颂扬的——所针对的是那些特定的听众。然而历史学家的听众的界线有没有充分划定,使人们可以把他们看作可鉴别的听众呢?对于这种涉及这 It may seem absurd to explore several rhetorical aspects of history because historical statements are not typically included in the types that have been considered rhetorical since Aristotle. These types are review conferences, tribunals and memorial assemblies. These three types of statements - reviewed, judicially, and glorified - are aimed at those particular listeners. However, are the boundaries of historians’ audiences sufficiently delineated so that one can see them as identifiable audiences?
