Abstract
Petrus Ramus (Pierre de la Ramée, 1515-1572) fue profesor Real de Elocuencia y Filosofía en el Collège Royal (París). Movido por su vocación pedagógica redefinió el ámbito de las artes liberales, despojando a la retórica de su contenido tradicional. Para Ramus la retórica consiste solo en la elocutio, no es un saber cívico tal y como lo entendieron los humanistas italianos que entroncan con la tradición greco-romana. Continuando el espíritu escolástico del norte de Europa, Ramus subraya la preeminencia de la dialéctica y consolida la noción de méthode que tanta importancia cobrará a partir del siglo XVII.

Motivated by his pedagogical vocation, he redefined the sphere of the liberal arts, stripping rhetoric of its traditional content. For Ramus rhetoric consisted only of elocutio, and was not a civic form of knowledge, even though it had been considered as such by Italian humanists following the Greco-Roman tradition. Continuing in the scholastic spirit of Northern Europe, Ramus highlighted the pre-eminence of dialectics and consolidated the notion of méthode, which would gain ever more importance, starting in the 17th century.
