Rhetoric in China, between orality and the written word
This article aims to examine one of the first translations and definitions of rhetoric in China by the Italian Jesuit Giulio Aleni (1582-1649), who composed a treatise usually translated as Summary of Western Learning (Xixue fan) (Hangzhou, 1623).

This article aims to examine one of the first translations and definitions of rhetoric in China by the Italian Jesuit Giulio Aleni (1582-1649), who composed a treatise usually translated as Summary of Western Learning (Xixue fan) (Hangzhou, 1623). At the same time, an analysis of this Summary raises other issues that are here examined. One in particular is the contention by several academics in the field of Chinese studies of what they believe is a “monopoly” of rhetoric by the West, as they claim the existence of rhetoric in ancient China. This article studies the treatise Xixue fan with a focus on the definition and explanation of rhetoric as a field of knowledge from the West, and it also engages in the analysis of different academic works claiming the existence of a Chinese rhetoric. Its final purpose is to reflect on rhetoric in between two worlds, the European and the Chinese, weighing on orality and the written word. |
