Aristotle developed the classical topics which would allow the reader to critically scrutinize the information presented and have a more rich discussion and understanding to the topic. One topic includes a question of testimony or the words people narrate that count as their experience or valuable information. Examples of questions of testimony would be:
What did the author say about this topic?
What are some facts presented by the speaker?
What was the person's experience? How did it affect the individual?
Are there any laws about ____?
