Rhetoric to Alexander (Rhetorica ad Alexandrum)
Ῥητορικὴ πρὸς Ἀλέξανδρον
The only complete surviving handbook of sophistic rhetoric contemporary with Aristotle. It teaches in a practical way the kinds of speech, the arguments and the parts of oratory, without the philosophical foundation of Aristotle's Rhetoric, and documents the teaching of eloquence in fourth-century Athens.

Authorship note
Spurious: a fourth-century BCE handbook attributed on good grounds to Anaximenes of Lampsacus; the dedicatory letter to Alexander is a later addition. Bekker 1420a–1447b.
