520	3		_aRhetoric in the modern world is often associated with disputation and less than truthful attempts to persuade. Clasical rhetoric, in its urge to wed eloquence with the noble goals of philosophy, continues as a study to increase our understanding of human utterance and expression. Although Plato has historically been regarded as an enemy of rhetoric, he is seen here as an important contributor to its classical tradition. The figure of Socrates in Plato's dialogues models a rhetoric of mutuality, a "pedagogical" rhetoric, which demonstrates the morally nurturing nature of refined speech.
