Headword:
Antistrophous
Adler number: alpha,2727
Translated headword: counterparts
Vetting Status: high

And
Aristotle says that dialectic is the counterpart to rhetoric, since it also [is] about persuasive things, which by being probable are themselves of this same kind; for he says
antistrophon ["counterpart to"] meaning
isostrophon ["equivalent to"], and "engaged in" and "concerned with" about the same things.[2]
Greek Original:Antistrophous: anti tou isostrophous. kai Aristotelês tên dialektikên antistrophon phêsin einai têi rhêtorikêi, epeidê kakeinê peri ta pithana, ha tôi endoxa einai kai auta esti toiauta: to gar antistrophon anti tou isostrophon kai peri ta auta strephomenên kai kataginomenên legei.
Notes:
The headword, accusative plural of this adjective, must be quoted from somewhere (perhaps
Plato: see next note).
[1] Likewise in other lexica, including
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon; this suggests (without guaranteeing) that the headword is quoted from
Plato,
Republic 616A.
[2] Alexander of
Aphrodisias,
Commentary on Aristotle's Topica 3.25-28. (At the opening of his
Rhetoric (1354a1ff)
Aristotle had declared that "rhetoric is counterpart to dialectic".)
