Jump to: navigation search Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (ca. – ca. ) was a Roman rhetorician from Hispania , widely referred to in medieval schools of rhetoric and in Renaissance writing.

    Quintillian was born ca. in Calagurris (now Calahorra La Rioja ) in Hispania . His father, a well-educated man, sent him to Rome to study rhetoric early in the reign of Nero . While there, he cultivated a relationship with Domitius Afer , who died in . "It had always been the custom … for young men with ambitions in public life to fix upon some older model of their ambition … and regard him as a mentor" (Kennedy, 16). Quintilian evidently adopted Afer as his model and listened to him speak and plead cases in the law courts. Afer has been characterized as a more austere, classical, Ciceronian speaker than those common at the time of Seneca , and he may have inspired Quintilian’s love of Cicero Sometime after Afer's death, Quintilian returned to Spain, possibly to practice law in the courts of his own province. However, in

Quintilian on Rhetoric
How Does Quintilian's Definition Compare to other Ancients We've Studied?
Plato:
Defines rhetoric as a philosophy rather than an art, an unncessary tool. He's much more concerned with truth than Quintilian.
Aristotle:
Believes that rhetoric is "finding the available means of persuasion." Quintilian takes issue with this, because he feels that Artistole isn't accounting for the fact that anyone, even "harlots, flatterers, and seducers," can persuade.
Isocrates:
Quintilian suggests that many feel that oratory is the "power of persuading," and this idea has its origins in the works of Isocrates. Quintilian, on the other hand, points out that there are other methods of persuasion, such as money. He also sees the symbolic importance of such things as "looks" and images (as he discusses in Book XI
Quintilian's definition:
To Quintilian, rhetoric is "the good man speaking well." (He seems to use the terms "rhetoric" and "oratory" interchangeably, placing much more stress in Book II on the latter term.) He divides it into 3 components: the art, the artist (artificer), and the work. Quintilian explains that:
  • Art=The knowledge of speaking well.

Executive summary: Institutio Oratoria Roman rhetorician, born at Calagurris (Calahorra) in Spain. Concerning his family and his life but few facts remain. His father taught rhetoric, with no great success, at Rome, and Quintilian must have come there at an early age to reside, and must have there grown up to manhood. The years from 61 to 68 he spent in Spain, probably attached in some capacity to the retinue of the future emperor Galba , with whom he returned to the capital. For at least twenty years after the accession of Galba he was at the head of the foremost school of oratory in Rome, and may fairly be called the Isocrates of his time. He also gained some, but not a great, repute as a pleader in the courts. His greatest speech appears to have been a defense of the queen Berenice, on what charge is not known. He appears to have been wealthy for a professional man. Vespasian created for him a professorial chair of rhetoric, liberally endowed with public money, and from this time he was unquestionably, as

Quintilian:
The Ideal Education, c. 90 CE
[Thatcher Introduction]: The Institutes. Book I, 1: LET A FATHER, then, as soon as his son is born, conceive, first of all, the best possible hopes of him; for he will thus grow the more solicitous about his improvement from the very beginning; since it is a complaint without foundation that "to very few people is granted the faculty of comprehending what is imparted to them, and that most, through dullness of understanding, lose their labor and their time." For, on the contrary, you will find the greater number of men both ready in conceiving and quick in learning; since such quickness is natural to man; and as birds are born to fly, horses to run, and wild beasts to show fierceness, so to us peculiarly belong activity and sagacity of understanding; whence the origin of the mind is thought to be from heaven. But dull and unteachable persons are no more produced in the course of nature than are persons marked by monstrosity and deformities; such are certainly but few. It will be a proof of this assertion, that, among boys, good promise is shown in the far greater number; and, if it passes off in the progress of time, it is manifest that it was not natural ability, but care, that was wanting. But one surpasses another, you will say, in ability. I grant that this is true; but only so far as to accomplish more or less; whereas there is no one who has not gained something by study. Let him who is convinced of this truth, bestow, as soon as he becomes a parent, the most vigilant possible care on cherishing the hopes of a future orator.

Quintilian
The Greek schools, especially that of Isocrates, greatly influenced the Romans. Rhetoric came to Rome in a BIG wayespecially educationally.
Additional biographical information about Quintilian, from Theral Mackey of the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Q. was the most famous Roman rhetorical theorist after Cicero. His primary work: Institutio Oratoria (Education of an Orator Twelve books (we have them all) treating the five canons in detail. Also a thorough treatment of the educational process. Popularized Cato's maxim noting that the ideal of education is "The Good Man Speaking Well." Primary elements of the educational treatise: Holder of the first endowed chair of rhetoric in Rome. The difficulty of Q's relationship to the Emperor Domitian Domitian was one of the most corrupt of the late Republic period. He named Q. chief educator of the land, an honor which seemed to tame Q. and give him political reason to remove himself from real criticism of the corrupt state. So on one hand we have his call for the good man speaking well, while on the other we have the reality of his working, docile and perhaps as a sycophant, for an evil and corrupt ruler. Many critics trouble over the contradiction. However, his text coming at the end of the Greco-Roman period and summarizing the best standards of Rhetorical education has garnered great praise. Fragments were used by Jerome and Augustine to specify ideals for the Christian educational period; when the complete text was rediscovered in Renaissance Italy, it was used as a model for education thereafter for hundreds of years.

Quintilian was the celebrated orator and rhetorician from the first century who brought forward rhetorical theory from ancient Greece and from the heyday of Roman rhetoric in the prior century. This theory he compiled in his Institutio Oratoria , an exhaustive and pedagogically oriented treatement of rhetoric in twelve books. Many later rhetoricians, especially from the Renaissance, derived their rhetorical theory directly from this text. Compact and detailed outlines follow below.

Quintilian's influence on education continued from his day until the 5th century. It was revived briefly in the 12th century in France. The Humanists at the end of the 14th century renewed interest in Quintilian and a complete text of his Oratio was found in Switzerland. It was first printed in Rome in 1470. Birth of Quintilian: Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (Quintilian) was born c. A.D. 35 in Calagurris, Spain. His father may have taught rhetoric there.

The Quintilian School is a small, independent school offering primary schooling for years one to seven, full-time pre-primary for five year olds and a Kindergarten programme for four year olds. The current enrolment is approximately 250, which represents the school's target enviromment. The Quintilian School was established in 1975 and moved to its permanent home in Mount Claremont in 1992. It was founded by a small group of parents and educators who saw the need for small-scale, community orientated schooling focusing on the recognition that children possess a natural curiosity and desire to learn. At Quintilian, the differences in children's learning styles are recognised and supported. Responding effectively to these differences is viewed as central to a successful child-centred programme. It is also seen as essential to keep the student to staff ratio low. The Quintilian approach encourages experimentation, problem solving and integrated curricula, and aims to keep learning exciting and relevant. The programme enriches the day-to-day experiences of school by drawing frequently on the resources of a wide range of community and cultural groups, and of the parent body. The school is named after the Roman educator Marcus Fabius Quintilianus. He was born in AD 35 and he held the position of Rome's greatest educator under three emperors. He believed that the aim of education was meeting individual needs and although his primary task was to teach oratory or rhetoric, his views on wider education are of permanent value. It is the recognition, nurturing and working with each child's individual character and ability that many parents feel is the most important feature of Quintilian.

    Quintilian, born in Spain about 35 CE , became a widely known and highly successful teacher of rhetoric in Rome. The Orator's Education Institutio Oratoria ), a comprehensive training program in twelve books, draws on his own rich experience. It is a work of enduring importance, not only for its insights on oratory, but for the picture it paints of education and social attitudes in the Roman world. Quintilian offers both general and specific advice. He gives guidelines for proper schooling (beginning with the young boy); analyzes the structure of speeches; recommends devices that will engage listeners and appeal to their emotions; reviews a wide range of Greek and Latin authors of use to the orator; and counsels on memory, delivery, and gestures. Donald Russell's new five-volume Loeb Classical Library edition of The Orator's Education , which replaces an eighty-year-old translation by H. E. Butler, provides a text and facing translation fully up to date in light of current scholarship and well tuned to today's taste. Russell also provides unusually rich explanatory notes, which enable full appreciation of this central work in the history of rhetoric. Donald A. Russell
