Classical Rhetoric is not one of those subjects that many parents have experience with, which is one reason why our customers have long been clamoring for an instructional DVD to go along with the course. Although Martin Cothran’s Classical Rhetoric is self-instructional, it is still nice to have the author helping your student through material that would otherwise be unfamiliar.

For those homeschool parents and teacher who want some help teaching rhetoric, Classical Rhetoric is now available on DVD!

Memoria Press’ video course features Martin Cothran, author of the book, Classical Rhetoric: Aristotle’s Principles of Persuasion. These DVDs include Mr. Cothran’s verbal instructions on every aspect of the course, including supplementary exercises, and include helpful graphics slides to help explain the content. There are lectures for each lesson, plus an introduction and four case studies. The lesson lectures average 45 minutes each.
