Silva Rhetoricae: The Forest of Rhetoric

An excellent source for learning rhetorical figures of speech

"It Figures" over at Figaro Speech  Another rich resource for exploring rhetoric figures of speech.   It's created and regularly updated by the talented Jay Heinrichs, who wrote Thank You for Arguing: What Aristotle, Lincoln, and Homer Simpson Can Teach Us About the Art of Persuasion. 

  As far as rhetorical primers go, it's worth its salt.  I suggest you pick up a copy to keep sharpening your skills after this class finishes.
