Aristotle's Example: The Rhetorical Induction.
Benoit, William Lyon
Quarterly Journal of Speech, v66 n2 p182-92 Apr 1980
Examines the concept of example in Aristotle's inventional theory. Rejects recent claims that the example reasons from part to part, without a mediating generalization, and then explicates Aristotle's view of the example. (JMF)
