Encomium is a Latin word deriving from the Classical Greek (enkomion) meaning "the praise of a person or thing." Encomium also refers to several distinct aspects of rhetoric:* A general category of oratory * A method within rhetorical pedagogy * A figure of speech praising a person or thing, but occurring on a smaller scale than an entire speech * The eighth exercise in the progymnasmata series * A literary genre that included five elements: prologue, birth and upbringing, acts of the person's life, comparisons used to praise the subject, and an epilogue. |
