org/wiki/Rhetor
Rhetor was the Greek term for orator: A rhetor was a citizen who regularly
addressed juries and political assemblies and who was thus understood to have
gained some knowledge about public speaking in the process, though in general
facility with language was often referred to as logn techne, "skill with arguments"
or "verbal artistry."

People have schemas for everything that they have experienced. Lawyers have
schemas for trial; non-lawyers do too. But non-lawyers' schemas are often
informed by television (hence the CSI effect). Chess players have schemas for chess
patterns and the consequences of their moves; grandmaster have more developed
schemas than do novice players.
Our experiences shape our schemas. Because our experiences can differ greatly,
our individual schemas ofor perspectives ona situation can differ greatly. You
can more easily recognize adverse perspectives, and deal with them more
effectively when you are aware that you too, are one of the chess pieces in the
game.
The lawyer needs to set out his/her theme (subject/main point) of the case at the
beginning. He/she must use that theme to guide every move. Throughout trial, as
he/she brings out evidence and attacks the weaknesses in the opponent's story,
he/she needs to elaborate on his/her them. In closing, the lawyer uses his/her
theme to make the complex simple and the conclusion self-evident. If he/she does
his job well, he will deliver checkmate.

What is the relation between strategy and tactics in chess? What are the qualities
of mind and temperament most necessary for the game? For the game of advocacy
(lawyering) one wants a good digestion, a good temper, and a good clerk; and of
these three the greatest is the good clerk. But in chess playing I have a suspicion
that there is more of psychological influence than some people suppose.
There are people who beat you before the game begins by the confident way in
which they arrange the pieces, by the authority with which they make a move,
almost by the way they look out of the window or drum their fingers while they are
waiting for you to play.
