It is increasingly well documented that western rhetorics journey from pagan Athens to the medieval academies of Christian Europe was significantly influenced by the intellectual thought of the Muslim Near East. Lahcen Elyazghi Ezzaher contributes to the contemporary chronicling of this influence in Three Arabic Treatises on Aristotles Rhetoric: The Commentaries of al-F?r?b?, Avicenna, and Averroes, offering translations of three landmark medieval Arabic commentaries on Aristotles famous rhetorical treatise in one volume. Elyazghi Ezzahers translations are each accompanied by insightful scholarly introductions and notes that contextualizeboth historically and culturallythese immensely significant works while highlighting a comparative, multidisciplinary approach to rhetorical scholarship that offers new perspectives on one of the fields foundational texts. Elegant and practical, the translations give English-speaking scholars and students of rhetoric access to key medieval Arabic rhetorical texts while elucidating the unique and important contribution of those texts to the revival of European interest in the rhetoric and logic of Aristotle, which in turn influenced the rise of universities and the shaping of Western intellectual life.
