II. CORAX AND TISIAS

(see also A V 1ff.)

 

1. Himerius, 2nd speech: Tisias and Corax, who blossomed in the way that Gorgias and Protagoras did.

The words are fragmentary and the meaning unclear.

 

2. Pausanias 6.17.8: Yet Tisias expanded the art of rhetoric, in particular he wrote the most persuasive speech of his time to support the claim of a Syracusan woman to a property.

 

3. Pseudo-Plutarch, Lives of the Ten Orators, on Lysias: But when the city sent a colony to Sybaris, which was afterwards called Thurii, he went there鈥 that he might receive his portion of his father's estate. This was done in the fifteenth year of his age, when Praxiteles was chief magistrate [444/3 BC]. There then he stayed, and was brought up under Nicias and Tisias, both Syracusans.

Phot. Bibl. 489 B draws on Pseudoplutarch, as does the Suda: 鈥楲ysias son of Cephalus, Syracusan, orator, student of Tisias and Nicias.

 

4. Dionysius of Halikarnassos, On Isocrates: He became a student of Prodicus of Ceos, Gorgias of Leontinoi and Tisias of Syracuse, who at that time were the most famous among the Greeks for their knowledge鈥

 

5. Pseudo-Plutarch, Lives 10 or. 836f.: He listened to Prodicus of Ceos, Gorgias of Leontinoi and the rhetor Theramenes. 鈥 Sud. s.v. Isocrates: His teacher was Gorgias; others say it was Tisias, others Erginus, others Prodicus, others Theramenes.

 

6. Cicero, On the Orator 3.21 (81): Therefore, let us tolerate that Corax of yours hatching his fledglings in his nest, who will fly out as unlikeable and obnoxious bawlers.

Spengel Art. Scr. p. 27 surmises that Cicero is playing on the saying, 鈥榖ad crow, bad egg鈥. From this it does not follow that Cicero already knew the story of the quarrel between Corax and Tisias (鈥榮ome say that this saying is older鈥: Prol. on Hermogenes On Civil Strifes W IV p. 14 = Prol. Syll. p. 272, 27 R.). See also Zenobius, who tells the same story about the quarrel (Paroem. Gr. I p. 107 L. Schn.): 鈥楽ome claim this saying originates from the bird, since neither it itself nor its egg is edible; others鈥︹ It is certain, however, that the 鈥榮tory about Corax reported by many鈥, as Sextus Emp. Against the Mathematicians 2.96 puts it, was known fairly early.

 

7. Anaximenes, On Rhetoric: 鈥 You will then come across these two books, of which one is mine, among the treatises I wrote for Theodektes, the other by Corax.

 

8. Prologue to Hermogenes 7.6 and Maximus Palnudes Prol. 5.215: One Corax, who was intelligent and full of practical wisdom, [鈥 composed a treatise about prooemia, narratives, contests and epilogues.

In all the other authors of prolegomena there is no indication that Corax wrote anything.

 

 

 

9. Excerpts (?): And then Corax and his pupil Tisias (wrote technai), then in Athens Gorgias of Leontinoi and Isocrates did.

 

 

10. Cicero, Brutus 12.46: Thus, Aristotle writes that [鈥 the Sicilians Corax and Tisias wrote down the art and its precepts.

 

11. Cicero, On Invention 2.2.6: Aristotle brought together the older writers of the ars, all the way down from its famous beginner and inventor Tisias.

Cf. On the Orator. 1.20.91: 鈥樷 one Corax (sic) and Tisias, who we know were the inventors and first practitioners of that art.鈥 See also Aristotle Rhet. 1409a17 (on Corax) and Top. 183b31 (on Tisias). L. Victorinus writes on Cicero ad loc. (Rhet. Lat. min. 258. 37 H.): 鈥楥orax and Tisias are said to be the first to have written treatises on rhetoric among the Greeks.鈥

 

12. Quintilian 3.1.8: The oldest authors of treatises were the Sicilians Corax and Tisias.

Please compare a little story reported by Martianus Capella p. 140, 17f. E. (V 432). That the art was invented by Corax and written down by Tisias was correctly surmised by Susemihl. Hence Plato, more touching on the subject than explaining it, as is his habit, Phaedr. 273C: 鈥楢 wonderfully hidden art it is that Tisias discovered or whoever else that person happens to be and whatever country he hails from!鈥 On this passage Hermias鈥檚 commentary: 鈥楬e probably writes this because of Corax, since the latter was said to be Tisias鈥檚 teacher.鈥

 

13. (惭补谤肠别濒濒颈苍耻蝉鈥檚?) Prologue: But let鈥檚 go and define what rhetoric is. Tisias and Corax define it like this: 鈥淩hetoric is the craftswoman of persuasion.鈥

So also Prol. an慰nyma P. S. p. 26.20 R. (W VI 14.1), Excerpta cod. Parisinus P. S. p. 296.26 R. Only Corax is named in Exc. cod. Marc. 430 and Vaticanus 900 P. S. p. 349.7 R. An慰nym. W III 611.9.

Plato attributes this definition to Gorgias in Gorg. 453A, cf. Amm. Marc. 30.4.3: 鈥楾isias (鈥淜oisias鈥 or 鈥淐tesias鈥 in the manuscripts) says that (this art) is the manufacturer of persuasion, and Gorgias of Leontini agrees.鈥 The full maturity is attained in the art of Isocrates, according to Quint. 2.15.4, of 围enocrates according to Sextus Empir. Against the Mathematicians 2.61. Finally Themistius or. 26.328 d: 鈥楢nd as you say this you laugh at Tisias and mock Theodorus of Byzantion, claiming they made but small and worthless contributions to the art, while you yourself lecture from above, in the same way that someone would manufacture persuasion.鈥 If, however, in Aeschines (3.215) Demosthenes is called 鈥榓 very able manufacturer of speeches鈥, it is very dubious that there our definition of the word applies (Weidland, Hermes 39.509.2).

14. 础迟丑补苍补蝉颈耻蝉鈥檚 Prologue: Nature causes us to speak, but rhetoric is what causes us to speak well. Corax of Syracuse invented it; they also defined it as the capacity for persuasion.

Cf. Philod. II p. 191: 鈥楴ature enables us to speak, but art is what makes us speak well鈥. See also the authors Rabe cites regarding the same idea.

 

15. Plato, Phaedrus 267 A-B: And shall we leave Gorgias and Tisias undisturbed, who saw that probabilities are more to be esteemed than truths, who make small things seem great and great things small by the power of their words, and new things old and old things the reverse, and who invented conciseness of speech and measureless length on all subjects?

See Epicharmus on Xenophanes in Arist. Metaph. 1010a5: 鈥楾herefore they speak with plausibility, but they don鈥檛 speak the truth. For to speak in this way fits better than how Epicharmus says on Xenophanes (Kaibel, Com. Gr. fr. I, Epicharmi 252). Antiphon Tetral. 1.2.8: 鈥楤ut if someone holds the plausible equal to the true鈥 cf. 1.4.8. 鈥 The words that follow in Plato contain, in a nutshell, augmentation and diminution in later authors. Cf. also Demetrius On Eloquence 120: 鈥榊et some claim that one ought to speak of little things in a grand way and think it a sign of exceptional ability鈥. Also consider below Isocrates 4.8. Both length and brevity of speech are also attributed to Protagoras and Gorgias, and cf. Phaedr. 268C, 269A, 272A, Theaet. 172 D, Polit. 286C, Gorg. 461D (on P慰lus), Thucydides 4.17.2.

16. Plato, Phaedrus 272C鈥273A: (Socr.) Then shall I tell something that I have heard some of those say who make these matters their business? (Phaedr.) Pray do. (Socr.) Even the wolf, you know, Phaedrus, has a right to an advocate, as they say. (Phaedr.) Do you be his advocate. (Socr.) Very well. They say that there is no need of treating these matters with such gravity and carrying them back so far to first principles with many words; for, as we said in the beginning of this discussion, he who is to be a competent rhetorician need have nothing at all to do, they say, with truth in considering things which are just or good, or men who are so, whether by nature or by education. For in the courts, they say, nobody cares for truth about these matters, but for that which is convincing; and that is probability, so that he who is to be an artist in speech must fix his attention upon probability. For sometimes one must not even tell what was actually done, if it was not likely to be done, but what was probable, whether in accusation or defense; and in brief, a speaker must always aim at probability, paying no attention to truth; for this method, if pursued throughout the whole speech, provides us with the entire art.

Usener already concluded that these words must stem from some early treatise, for they relate exclusively to the forensic genre.

Socrates says that according to one proverb not even the parts of the wolf should be abandoned; so why not the crow鈥檚 (korax), too, an animal just as predatory? Plato then continues, using figures in his characteristic manner: 鈥(Phaedr.) You have expounded on the very things that are said by those who lay claim to being professional rhetors. For I just remembered that we briefly touched on such subject matter a moment ago. Such things seem to be of major import to those who are about that art. 鈥 (Socr.) You obviously have studied Tisias himself carefully.鈥

17. Plato, Phaedrus 259E-260A: I have heard that one who is to be an orator does not need to know what is really just, but what would seem just to the multitude who are to pass judgment, and not what is really good or noble, but what will seem to be so; for they say that persuasion comes from what seems to be true, not from the truth.

This doctrine is touched on in in Rep. 6 193A-C as well. One may think Sophocles is referring to something like that in Antigone 620-1: 鈥楾hough wisdom has appeared a famous word by someone, that appearing to be bad seems good to the man whose mind god is leading to blindness/ruin鈥, if only you consider Phaedr. 260C. We should also have a look at Philodem. Rhet. I p. 209.5 S.: 鈥業f they say that what appears to the masses is actually so and true and can and must only be discovered and possess plausibility, apart from the fact that it does not refer to anything beyond the politician having to find out the political arguments inherent in every situation, the appearances do not even stay still for the masses.鈥

18. Plato, Phaedrus 273 A-C: now let Tisias himself tell us if he does not say that probability is that which most people think. (Phaedr.:) That is just what he says. (Socr.:) Apparently after he had invented this clever scientific definition, he wrote that if a feeble and brave man assaulted a strong coward, robbed him of his cloak or something, and was brought to trial for it, neither party ought to speak the truth; the coward should say that he had not been assaulted by the brave man alone, whereas the other should prove that only they two were present and should use the well-known argument, 鈥淗ow could a little man like me assault such a man as he is?鈥 The coward will not acknowledge his cowardice, but will perhaps try to invent some other lie, and thus give his opponent a chance to confute him. And in other cases there are other similar rules of art. Is that not so, Phaedrus? (Phaedrus:) Certainly. (Socrates:) Oh, a wonderfully hidden art it seems to be which Tisias has brought to light, or some other, whoever he may be and whatever country he is proud to call his own!

There is an art of employing arguments for both views: Spengel on Ar. rh. p. 344; Isocrates Against Callimachus 13-14; Antiphon鈥檚 Tetralogies.

 

19. Plato, Gorgias 460E-461A: Well then, I supposed at the time when you were saying this that rhetoric could never be an unjust thing, since the speeches it made were always about justice but when a little later you told us that the orator might make even an unjust use of his rhetoric, that indeed surprised me, and thinking the two statements were not in accord I made those proposals.

Cf. Phaedr. 273B on Tisias: 鈥楴either party must speak the truth鈥. Quint. 2.15.31, 鈥楨ven the teachers of that art seemed to Plato to be rather unsuitable, as they separated rhetoric from justice and preferred the plausible to the truth.始 Gorgias wants rhetoric to be used only on behalf of what is just (Pl., Gorg. 457B).

 

20. Aristotle, Rhetoric 1402a3: Further, as in sophistical disputations, an apparent syllogism arises as the result of considering a thing first absolutely, and then not absolutely, but only in a particular case. For instance, in Dialectic, it is argued that that which is not is, for that which is not is that which is not; also, that the unknown can be known, for it can be known of the unknown that it is unknown. Similarly, in rhetoric, an apparent enthymeme may arise from that which is not absolutely probable but only in particular cases. But this is not to be understood absolutely, as Agathon says: 鈥淥ne might perhaps say that this very thing is probable, that many things happen to men that are not probable;鈥 for that which is contrary to probability still does happen, so that that which is contrary to probability is probable. If this is so, that which is improbable will be probable. But not absolutely; but as, in the case of sophistical disputations, the argument becomes fallacious when the circumstances, reference, and manner are not added, so here it will become so owing to the probability being not probable absolutely but only in particular cases. [11] The Art of Corax is composed of this topic. For if a man is not likely to be guilty of what he is accused of, for instance if, being weak, he is accused of assault and battery, his defense will be that the crime is not probable; but if he is likely to be guilty, for instance, if he is strong, it may be argued again that the crime is not probable, for the very reason that it was bound to appear so. It is the same in all other cases; for a man must either be likely to have committed a crime or not. Here, both the alternatives appear equally probable, but the one is really so, the other not probable absolutely, but only in the conditions mentioned. And this is what 鈥渕aking the worse appear the better argument鈥 means.

Here we have an artifice from what they call a 'dilemma', whose use by the eristics is illustrated nowhere better than Plato, Euthyd. (275D, 276D, 283E). Andocides loves dilemmas (1.51, 2.2-3, 2.16). A related topos is the one from division (cf. n. on B VII 39). On this topic see also Hermogenes On Civil Strife 147.29 Sp.: 鈥榃hat one person will use as evidence of something being the case, the other will use as evidence of it not being the case,鈥 etc.

This passage is fulsomely explained by G. Kowalski, De arte rhetorica 1 (1937) 3-4.

 

21. Aristotle, Rhetoric 1372a21: Those are likely to remain undetected whose qualities are out of keeping with the charges, for instance, if a weak person were accused of assault and battery, or a poor or ugly man of adultery.

 

22. Anaximenes, p. 86.16: It would be inappropriate if someone younger or older litigated on behalf of another; it would be incongruous if a strong person prosecuted a weak one for battery, or an insolent person accused a self-controlled one of wantonness, or someone very poor sued another who was very rich on the grounds that the defendant owed him money.[3]

You will note that as Aristotle adds 鈥榣ikewise with the others鈥, Anaximenes puts the example of the quarrel between the rich man and the poor man in the third place 鈥 an example that may have been found in Tisias鈥 treatise itself as seems to be confirmed in Luc. Pseudol. 29, where he recounts that some sophist took on the part of the poor man against a rich one and then ripped off plenty of money from a rich old man thanks to the art of Tisias. (Ibid. the last words 鈥榯he other鈥 defeated by sophistry鈥 seem to point to the story told in Ch. 5.) Cf. also Lys. 24.16: 鈥業t is not likely that the poor and very destitute would commit hubris, but those who own far more than they need; nor that those without bodily prowess would, but those who most trust their own strength, nor those of advanced age, but those who are young and have young-people attitudes.鈥 You have the reverse order to Anaximenes. One may hypothesize that certain topoi around likelihood had already been elaborated by Tisias; Kowalski p. 50 rightly compared hereto Xen. Cyr. 1.3.17: 鈥楾he case was as follows. A big [that is, strong] boy with a small tunic had stripped a small [that is, weak] boy with a big tunic (cf. above, Plat. Phaedr. 273A) and put his own tunic on him and the other鈥檚 on himself. I as the judge decided鈥 At that point the teacher hit me and said鈥︹

23. Doxopater, Against Aphthonos: The different parts of a speech were allegedly first invented by Corax, who had just taken over the people from that famous cruel tyranny and found them troubled: in order to stop the unrest in the crowd and make them listen, he came up with the tropes used in the exordium; to expound the facts clearly, persuasively and concisely, he invented the exposition; to be persuasive on the matters that he wanted to be, either encouraging or dissuading, he used the argumentative part; and in order to remind the listeners of the salient points and also to evoke emotions in the judges or councilors, he instituted the epilogue.

Cf. the extant sources on Corax鈥檚 disposition gathered above (A V 16). Doxopater himself, when he describes the four parts, which is approved already by John of Sardis p. 50.12f. R., is nonetheless speaking about the demonstrative genre, in which narration plays no role, and proffers teachings regarding the virtues of narrations that others attribute to Isocrates and his art. Finally, Troilus, claiming that Corax was experienced in the forensic genre, lists seven parts: paroimia, prokataskeue, prokatastasis, katastasis, agonas, parekbasis, epilogos (above p. 17). These may actually stem from memorization of Aristotle; but we know that, in inventing technical terms, the early authors went insane, so to speak. Also see Hamberger鈥檚 little book 25-6. (34).

24. Syrianus, Commentary on Hermogenes 2, p. 127.4: One must know that Corax too, the writer of treatises, uses the word katastasis to refer to the exordium.

Anaximenes 29 p. 71.5 H. on proems: 鈥業n this way one ought to do the katastaseis of public speeches.鈥 On the content of the word katastasis see Wendland 30f., Hamberger 34 f., 39f. (Usener, Kl. Schriften 1.32).

 

25. Plato, Phaedrus 247 D: But all seem to be in agreement concerning the conclusion of discourses, which some call 'retracing' (epanodos), while others give it some other name. (Phaedr.:) You mean recalling the points of the speech at the end, to remind the audience what has been said?

      26. Plato, Phaedrus 274A (looking back to what preceded) Therefore, if the path is long, do not be astonished; for it must be trodden for the sake of great ends, not for those you (Tisias) have in mind.

This 鈥榞oing around鈥 (periodos) is called by Cicero 鈥榓mbitus鈥. Pollux 2.125 explains perilegein as 鈥榳alking around with the speech鈥. But in Arist. Frogs 953 peripatos means something like a 鈥榣ong speech鈥, which is explained in the words of Maccab. 2 2.30: 鈥楾o thread around and go for a long walk with words and be overzealous in the divided elements is appropriate to him who leads the narration, whereas brevity鈥︹. From Plato鈥檚 words it is clear that he regarded the very word periodos as so derived. It follows that Tisias always taught to speak through periodoi.

 

 

 

 

[1] The meaning of this fragment is unclear.

 

 

[2] M. Planudes also contains this passage, to which he adds: 鈥渢hrough which he persuaded the people.鈥

 

 

[3] That this example goes back to Tisias is suggested by a passage in Lucian鈥檚 Pseudologista (29). Cf. Lysias 24.16.
