Abstract

Soares was the author of one of the top best-selling rhetoric manuals from the Renaissance. His De arte rhetorica libri tres (Coimbra, 1562), containing a summary survey of the discipline, decisively influenced the teaching and learning of rhetoric in southern Europe. The De arte rhetorica was later adopted as a rhetoric manual in the Ratio studiorum of 1599.
