Abstract |
Aelius Aristides was a second-century A.D. Greek rhetorician from Asia Minor, best known for his Orations, which were prepared in advance of delivery. He also wrote the Hieroi Logoi [Sacred Tales], which detail his relationship in his many sicknesses with the healing god Asclepius. His Orations were much admired in Late Antiquity, influencing many writers, and have entered the western canon of rhetoric.
