AGUIRRE ROMAN, Javier Orlando. On rhetoric as a techné: Aristotle's responses to the Gorgias' objections. Prax. filos. [online]. 2009, n.29, pp.17-40. ISSN 0120-4688.

In the Gorgias, Plato distinguishes the way of being and acting proper of the philosopher as opposed to the way of being and acting proper of the rhetorician. For this, Plato uses as criteria the rhetoric itself insofar as he distinguishes between the flattering rhetoric and the scientific rhetoric. As opposed to this, Aristotle reformulates the referring Platonic critics to the possibility of developing a rhetorical technê. The present text will confront the conditions that according to the Gorgias must fulfill the rhetoric to get to be a technê with the characteristics that, according to Aristotle, the rhetoric has based on its relation with the dialectic.

Palabras clave : rhetoric; dialectic; antistrophe; speeches; common place.
