About Petrus Ramus

Petrus Ramus was a French humanist, logician, and educational reformer. A prominent and controversial academic and professor in Paris' College De France, Ramus became famous for his iconoclastic critiques of Aristotle, Cicero, and Quintilian. Ramus argued that dialectic should be removed or separated from the purview of rhetoric, a stance which significantly narrowed rhetorical theory's scope. A convert to Protestantism, he was a victim of the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre.
