“Peristrophe is also derived from Greek: peri meaning ‘around’ and strophos ‘a twisted band or belt’, referring to the bracts that surround and enclose the calyx”.
In literature, specifically Wicked:
” … rumors of strict court action against turncoats and peristrophists …”
Thus:
“One who engages the words of their opponent during an argument in a way that transforms the meaning of the words to support their own viewpoint”.
With elements, to my ear, of sophistry as well.
