Review questions1. what is "rhetoric" and where did the term originate?

1.      I believe the correct answer is the art of discourse.

Rhetoric is the art of discourse, the effective or persuasive speaking or writing, which puts an emphasis on learning exploitation of figures of speech and other compositional techniques. The founder of rhetoric is Greek philosopher Aristotle, who considered rhetoric to be a counterpart of both logic and politics. He defined rhetoric as: "the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion.”

2.      I believe the correct answer is Greece.

The term rhetoric has its origins in Greek peninsula and it was derived from the Greek  "rhetorike techne" meaning the "art of an orator". This phrase comes from the word rhetor (speaker, orator, teacher of rhetoric) which is related to the word rhesis (speech).
