Abstract

This research focuses on the corpus stylistic analysis of the treatises of Great Athanasius. In this inter-disciplinary study classical texts are approached through linguistic tools and the main purpose is to describe the style of Great Athanasius in these treatises, after having extracted all these quantitative data utilizing computational tools. The language Great Athanasius uses is a language that expresses intensely his speculations on the achievement of religious change and restructuration. His language expresses his religious ideology. His speeches are persuasive, ideological and represent the rhetorician's opinion. They are based on the speaker's intentionality; it directs him to the specific rhetorical framework, since he aims at one and unique inspirational result, that is, persuasion.
