"With regard to the persuasion achieved
by proof or apparent proof: just as in dialectic there is induction on the one
hand and syllogism or apparent syllogism on the other, so it is in rhetoric. The
example is an induction, the enthymeme is a syllogism, and the apparent enthymeme
is an apparent syllogism. I call the enthymeme
a rhetorical syllogism, and the example a rhetorical induction. Every one who
effects persuasion through proof does in fact use either enthymemes or examples:
there is no other way. And since every one who proves anything at all is bound
to use either syllogisms or inductions (and this is clear to us from the
Analytics), it must follow that enthymemes
are syllogisms and examples are inductions. The difference between example and enthymeme
is made plain by the passages in the Topics where induction and syllogism have
already been discussed. When we base the proof of a proposition on a number of
similar cases, this is induction in dialectic, example in rhetoric; when it is
shown that, certain propositions being true, a further and quite distinct
proposition must also be true in consequence, whether invariably or usually,
this is called syllogism in dialectic, enthymeme in rhetoric. It is plain also
that each of these types of oratory has its advantages. Types of oratory, I say:
for what has been said in the Methodics applies equally well here; in some
oratorical styles examples prevail, in others enthymemes; and in like manner,
some orators are better at the former and some at the latter. Speeches that rely
on examples are as persuasive as the other kind, but those which rely on enthymemes
excite the louder applause. The sources of examples and enthymemes,
and their proper uses, we will discuss later. Our next step is to define the
processes themselves more clearly." -- Aristotle
