Abstract
We intend to carry out a comprehensive study of the use of the term λέξις in the rhetorical writings of Dionysius of Halicarnassus. We will investigate its different meanings and interconnections with λόγος As we will see, λέξις is still Dionysiuś preferred term when denoting expression or style , and, thus, he indicates an intermediate stage of evolution between that of Philodemus of Gadara and that of Ps. Longinus or Hermogenes: the latter in these cases have resorted to using λόγος, a non-marked term of opposition, something which would still have been unthinkable for Dionysius.
期刊介绍：
Language holds a dual identity: it is both an art as well as a science, with each word expressing a unique meaning. And when words are arranged with specific purpose to persuade, or to communicate ideologies, language acquires yet another facet of identity--that of rhetoric. Rhetorica, published quarterly for the International Society for the History of Rhetoric, includes articles, book reviews and bibliographies that examine the theory and practice of rhetoric in all periods and languages and their relationship with poetics, philosophy, religion and law. The official languages of the Society, and of the journal, are English, French, German, Italian, Latin, and Spanish, with articles and features corresponding.
