Why isn't the title of this article merely Rhetorica or Rhetorice? For English 'rhetoric', Cassell's gives "rhetorica, rhetorice (Quint.), ars dicendi, bene dicendi scientia (Quint.)"—but not ars rhetorica. IacobusAmor 19:16, 3 Ianuarii 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ars rhetorica seems OK, pace Cassell. It is the usual Latin title for Aristotle's work on the subject, and also the title of a current journal about rhetoric. It gets nearly 20,000 Google hits. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 12:37, 4 Ianuarii 2009 (UTC)Reply
All the more reason to accommodate rhetoric in an article Rhetorica and leave Aristotle and the journal to their own devices! Entia sicut paginae distinguentes non sunt multiplicanda! IacobusAmor 14:41, 4 Ianuarii 2009 (UTC)Reply
Revertere ad "Ars rhetorica".
