The Rhetoric to Alexander (also widely known by its title in Latin: Rhetorica ad Alexandrum; Ancient Greek: Τέχνη ῥητορική) is a treatise traditionally attributed to Aristotle.
[1] Quintilian seems to refer to this work under Anaximenes' name in Institutio Oratoria,[2] as the Italian Renaissance philologist Piero Vettori first recognized.
[4] Chapters 1-5 deal with arguments specific to each of the species of rhetoric corresponding to the first book of Aristotle's work.
In contrast to Aristotle, the author of Rhetoric to Alexander does not use examples illustrating his precepts.
Because this treatise differs from Aristotle in some details it is sometimes thought to have stood in the tradition surrounding the person of Isocrates, but there is no clear evidence for this.
