I guess it shouldn't be a surprise to see flowers in a forest, but considering all the work I've watched people put into keeping flowers alive in pots and gardens, it is somewhat striking to walk by flowers which are doing quite well on their own.

 Silva Rhetoricae: The Forest of Rhetoric
Sometimes it is difficult to see the forest (the big picture) of rhetoric because of the trees (the hundreds of Greek and Latin terms naming figures of speech, etc.) within rhetoric.
This site is intended to help beginners, as well as experts, make sense of rhetoric, both on the small scale (definitions and examples of specific terms) and on the large scale (the purposes of rhetoric, the patterns into which it has fallen historically as it has been taught and practiced for 2000+ years).
If you'd like an overview of the entire "forest" of rhetoric, consult the "trees" (major categories) in the left frame.
