Progymnasmata exercises:
Fable
A fable conveys a truth using a short story. We state the moral.
Narrative
The content of the narrative exercise in the progymnasmata is either political, historical, or based on fiction. (Conveys who, what, when, where, why and how)
Chreia or Maxim
Saying used to develop the meanings of these actions or quotations with the framing under the headings of praise, paraphrase, cause, example of meaning, compare and contrast, testimonies, and an epilogue; anecdote is something that is frequently used in the Bible.
Refutation
This exercise required the student to logically reason against something drawn from myths, narratives, or fables. We refute something that is either impossible, illogical, unsuitable, or inexpedient.
Confirmation
The confirmation exercise is the opposite of refutation. The student will defend something drawn from legends and literature.
Commonplace
Working out the commonplace involved attacking vice by envisioning criticism of stereotypes rather than individuals. Students do this by using contradiction, comparison, and maxim attacking the motivation of the demographic described.
Encomium
Students used encomium to praise persons, things, times, places, animals, and growing things.
Invective
Invective opposes commonplace. It attacks a specific, named individual, usually a political or cultural figure.
Comparison
The comparison exercise acts as a double encomium or a combination of an encomium of one person or thing and the invective against another.
Characterization
Students used characterization or personification by forming a speech ascribed to the ghost of a known person or of an imaginary or mythological character from past, present, or future times. This exercise was intended to request students to perform it with clarity, conciseness, and floridity.
Description
When asked to use description to describe a person, place, thing, or time, students were obliged to produce a description that was complete. Included was detailed information about a person from head-to-toe, an action from start to finish, etc. This form is seen in many classical literature and historical writings.
Thesis
A thesis or argument in the form of a reasoned examination of anything under consideration.
Introduction to law
Aphtonius calls this final exercise a gymnasma rather than progymnasmata. This exercise is in the form of advocacy of a proposed law or opposition of it.
