- exordium
- narratio
- divisio
- confirmatio
- confutatio
- peroratio
What do these stages mean? Any educated Hellenic Greek could have told you. I have no idea.
A literary composition would have five sections:
- inventio
- disposition
- elocutio
- memoria
- pronuntiatio or actio
All this is according to Brian Vickers, in the TLS of 5 October 2007. But he doesn't tell us where he got these terms from.
