Greek Ages

A collection of beliefs, rituals, and mythology originating in Ancient Greece. The Ancient Greek people were polytheistic, meaning they worshipped a pantheon of gods. Religion as a category did not really exist in the ancient world - but it was everywhere and everything was imbued with divine power; it was essential to keep the divine power happy. This was accomplished with ceremony, sacrifice and offerings.

Rhetoric is the art of persuasion, which is one of the three ancient arts of discourse. Rhetoric studies the techniques writers or speakers use to inform, persuade, or motivate particular audiences in specific situations. "Aristotle defines rhetoric as the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion." The five canons of rhetoric or phases of developing a persuasive speech were codified in classical Rome.
