Did Quintilian have Greek influence in his teachings?
Extensively
Sparingly
Not at all
It is not clear
Answer
Quintilian's teachings have been compared to those of Aristotle, but it is not clear if he had any direct influence on him. It is possible that Quintilian was influenced by Greek rhetoricians who had studied with Aristotle, or that he was influenced by the writings of Aristotle himself. However, there is no definitive evidence to support either of these claims.
