The debts that I have accrued, both professional and personal, have come at various stages and in different forms. The most significant of these I wish to acknowledge in this shortspace. The work seen here began as a dissertation at Duke University under the supervisionofMaryT.Boatwright,whohasprovenaconstantchampionofthe study’s purpose and merits, both during the writing of the dissertation and eversinceitsacceptance.ChristinaKrausofYaleUniversityservedonthedis- sertationcommittee,gavecriticalfeedback,andcontinuedtopushforpublica- tion.ItreasurememoriesoflongconversationswithFrancisNewtonandLarry Richardson, Jr. (1920–2013) that have informed this study in ways impossible to pinpoint or quantify. Others at Duke helped in various ways, among them Diskin Clay (1938–2014), Micaela Janan, Grant Parker, Kent Rigsby, and Clare Woods.Atalatestage,NeilBernsteindeliveredcommentsandashotofenthu- siasm. OverthepastdecadeorsoEuropehasbecometheepicenterofstudieson declamation.Byaninexplicablestrokeofgoodfortune,Ihavegainedthesup- port of two leading authorities on the subject, Francesco Citti and Antonio Stramaglia, without whose consummate expertise and generosity this study likely would never have been published. Charles Guérin helped more than he knows, urging publication at a time when I had nearly abandoned the idea andalsoprovidingfeedback. A New Faculty Fellowship from the American Council of Learned Socie- ties (ACLS) was necessary for the opportunity to begin revision. A Research Fellowship from the International Society for the History of Rhetoric (ISHR) wassimilarlyindispensable,atatimewhenuniversityresourcesarescarceor inaccessible.
