<p>Quintilian, born in Spain about 35 CE, became a widely known and highly successful teacher of rhetoric in Rome.

He gives guidelines for proper schooling (beginning with the young boy); analyzes the structure of speeches; recommends devices that will engage listeners and appeal to their emotions; reviews a wide range of Greek and Latin authors of use to the orator; and counsels on memory, delivery, and gestures.</p> <p>Donald Russell's new five-volume Loeb Classical Library edition of The Orator's Education , which replaces an eighty-year-old translation by H.
