Description
In the third stage of the Classical Composition program, Chreia & Maxim, students gain the ability to create a story. They do this by using the narrative categories and variation through paraphrase. Students learn to demonstrate the truth of the Commonplace through what the ancient Greek writer Aphthonius calls eight heads of development
. They also deal more explicitly and thoroughly with what in modern composition theory are referred to as support points
.
In this stage, students learn to invent four specific types of narrative through these heads of development
and to paraphrase in two specific ways. These skills are the foundation of what they will learn. The Classical Composition III: Chreia & Maxim Teacher Guide provides sample answers for every lesson, as well as teaching and grading guidance.
