Octavian
Motto:Never let anyone tell you that you can't do something.
Octavian is a researcher in the Department of Classical Studies at Oxford University. Much of his research delves into the rhetorical strategies and persuasive techniques used in ancient Roman discourse. Octavian's latest theory, presented in December 2023, posits that the true power of rhetoric lies in its dialogic nature: it thrives when ideas are exchanged and debated, allowing speakers to construct compelling arguments that can sway opinions and foster understanding among listeners. This theory challenges the traditional view that rhetoric is merely an instrument for persuasion, instead highlighting its role as a tool for genuine communication and consensus-building.
