(Click to enlarge)

While this is not an all-encompassing list of terms and concepts, it is meant to show how the three schools differed from one another. The Sophists and Aristotle shared some common ground, whereas Plato rejected most of the views of his contemporaries. Each school disagreed on the subject of T(t)ruth and each had different views about the purpose of rhetoric and how it should be done. This diagram, hopefully, draws some lines and refreshes your memory.
