Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British and American Eloquence This volume is the outgrowth of a clearly defined classroom demand for a critical study of the message and methods of the great English and American orators whose utterances have molded public opinion and guided the destinies of the two great Anglo-Saxon nations. Its object is to conserve the students time by providing, in one book, that which he has heretofore secured by a somewhat erratic study of many volumes. Our method is that of "precept and example," giving those salient points in the lives and experiences of the orators treated that may serve as a guide to the student of oratory, and furnishing as much of their selected speeches as may be profitably studied and assimilated within the time assigned to this subject in the curriculum. Our plan is to stimulate a study of the sources of oratorical power growing out of the personality, motives, and methods of the orators considered; to set forth the occasion, the circumstances, and the object of some of their most effective speeches; and to reprint such inspiring examples of eloquence as may enrich the mind of the student and strengthen his ideals of public speaking. Our selection includes twenty-two of the most noted English-speaking orators of the past one hundred and fifty years. We have not undertaken a review of the oratory of a more remote past or a study of the many excellent present-day speakers whose careers have not yet closed.

Download or read book Eloquence Is Power written by Sandra M. Gustafson and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oratory emerged as the first major form of verbal art in early America because, as John Quincy Adams observed in 1805, "eloquence was POWER." In this book, Sandra Gustafson examines the multiple traditions of sacred, diplomatic, and political speech that flourished in British America and the early republic from colonization through 1800. She demonstrates that, in the American crucible of cultures, contact and conflict among Europeans, native Americans, and Africans gave particular significance and complexity to the uses of the spoken word. Gustafson develops what she calls the performance semiotic of speech and text as a tool for comprehending the rich traditions of early American oratory. Embodied in the delivery of speeches, she argues, were complex projections of power and authenticity that were rooted in or challenged text-based claims of authority. Examining oratorical performances as varied as treaty negotiations between native and British Americans, the eloquence of evangelical women during the Great Awakening, and the founding fathers' debates over the Constitution, Gustafson explores how orators employed the shifting symbolism of speech and text to imbue their voices with power.
