In last decades, efforts have been made to try to categorize rhetorical works from the fourth to the sixth centuries under a unified term, namely ¡°Third Sophistic¡±. The impact of such a denomination has led to the naming of several contemporary philosophical, historiographical and literary movements. The aim of this paper is to study, survey, and discuss in further detail these ¡°Third Sophistics¡± that have appeared over the course of recent decades. %K Rhetoric %K Late Antiquity %K Third Sophistic %U http://www1.unex.es/arengas/td5Quiroga.pdf
