Resumen
This research brings into focus the relationship between the work Rhetoric, from
Aristotle, and the conceptions of ethics and practical wisdom of the philosopher from
Stageira. Accordingly, it attempts to show that Aristotle's Rhetoric was produced to guide the
construction and orientation of oratory passions of the Greek man, setting it as a reference
for practices aimed at social ordering of the polis. In other words, the Aristotelian Rhetoric,
designed by the author as the study of what is persuasive in every speech, is not composed
with the meaning of persuasion at any cost, in another sense it is conceived by Aristotle as a
useful knowledge for the improvement eupraxic (the good act in accordance with the fair and
true).
This research finds that such work has been prepared by Stagirite a time of strong
social transformations and upheavals in ancient Greece: The skepticism expanded, with
each person wanting to live their own businesses, and especially in Athens, a city that served
as intellectual and political reference, there was a lack of collective spirit. In this tumultuous
social environment, Aristotle, with a culture of Greeks eager Trusted reviews and socially
shareable in the field of verisimilitude, sought with his Rhetoric, contributing to the
development of ethics and political science; referrals for legal and organization of inter-social
relations in varied environments, including seeking to provide knowledge about human
passions and emotional status of active citizens in deliberative meetings
