Primes¶
- Stasis
- The classical rhetorical tradition named four canonical stases — conjecture (did it happen?), definition (what is it?), quality (was it justified?), and jurisdiction (is this the right forum?) — on the structural insight that disputants who appear to disagree about the answer are very often disagreeing about the question, and that the right intervention is to identify which level of question is genuinely at stake.
This sourceTrans. H. M. Hubbell. Loeb Classical Library 386. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1949. De Inventione transmits the classical doctrine of stasis (constitutio), derived from Hermagoras — the typology of conjecture, definition, quality, and translation/jurisdiction — supporting both the four-canonical-stases claim and the small, complete-enough working-memory partition of question-kinds.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
