Présentation de l'éditeur:
Pourquoi recourt-on si spontanément à l'anecdote? Peut-être parce qu'elle constitue une manifestation fondamentale de la narration persuasive. En examinant des écrits de la période 1650-1750 où l'anecdote mondaine et historique est en plein essor, cet ouvrage éclaire les stratégies rhétoriques complexes de ce simple récit.
