I don't know how I didn't become interested in this yet. Thanks!

By the way what classic works talk about these fallacies? Any good recommendation?

Plato - Gorgias

Aristotle - Rhetoric

Cicero - Oration (can have different names depending on translations), Treatise on Rhetorical Invention and Treatise on Topics

Quintilian - Five Canons of Rhetoric (not really a book, but do a web search and you can often find a shorten down version that is easy to work with)
