Diritto di difesa e diritto romano. L'architettura del discorso dell'avvocato fra retorica e diritto

The purpose of this work is to define the inviolable right of defense, by trying to clarify the importance of a “specialist” who performs the necessary activities for the protection of rights in the proceedings. In particular, it focus on Quintilian’s Institutio Oratoria as one of the most important rhetorical handbooks that contains the treatment of rhetoric’s five parts: inventio, dispositio, elocutio, memoria, actio; to conclude with suggesting some observations about the relationship between narratio and the person’s right to be defended.
