I did in fact say it was cited in LS&J, but with no rhetorical meaning. The listed synonym is also without rhetorical flavor. Thanks, however, for the citation. None of the terms go back to Classical rhetoric, at least none are listed in the TLG CDROM, so they were invented sometime in the Renaissance. A Classical education wouldn't help one learn them and cannot, therefore, be used to authorize them. ============================================== Steven J.
