Cyceron – nauczyciel śląskiej młodzieŜy. Dydaktyzm w retoryce, czyli o wykorzystaniu retoryki cycerońskiej na przykładzie śląskich gimnazjów humanistycznych od XVI do XVIII w.
(Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu im. Adama Mickiewicza, 2009) Gaj, Beata
The article contains a description of the Ciceronian rhetoric didactics in the Silesian humanistic gymnasia from the 16th to the 18th century. In her article, the author intends to analyze how the educators of the old Silesia cultivated the ancient Ciceronian tradition of eloquence. She observes that Cicero’s authority was never questioned in Silesia despite the European echoes of the ‘dispute about Ciceronianism’, which reached Silesia as well. This and other issues from the area of rhetoric and didactics, on the example of Cicero's works and their reception in Silesia, are the concerns of this paper.
