Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Eloquence and Style The Lectures on Eloquence do not comprise an entire course. With reference to them, Dr. Porter remarks in his Directions respecting his mss. These Lectures were ia tended as a sequel to those which have been incorporated into my Analysis of Rhetorical Delivery. I was induced to enlarge on the vocal organs, by urgent request of those whose judgment I regarded, and because no instruction on the abuses of those organs, has been accessible in' any regular form to young min istera. The Lectures on Style are also designedly limited in extent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF THE VOCAL ORGANS. The foregoing inquiries, why strength of voice is important to a preacher, on what it depends, and how it is promoted by exercise, lead to some practical reflections on which I propose to enlarge. These reflections all have respect to one chief point, the preservation of the vocal organs. In more than one instance, Gentlemen, I have heard young ministers, who had been my pupils, whispering with broken lungs, their surprise, that the point I am now urging should not have been seasonably thought of by themselves. My reply to them has been as it will be to any of you, should I hear you utter the same regret, some five years hence; "It is not the fault of your Instructors, that these things have not been thought of." While this subject is in hand then, I affectionately offer you some admonitory remarks, in the hope that they may save some of you from those painful lessons, which so many have refused to learn from any teacher but experience. It is a subject, I am well aware, which belongs rather to the Medical Professor, than to me. But if the learned physician well understands the danger of the public speaker, which is not always the case, his counsel, in most instances, does not bear on the mischief in season. It is not sought except to administer the " pound of remedy," where the " ounce of prevention" was neglected. Nor am I such a novice in human affairs, as to expect that any counsels which I can give, by way of premonition, will be seasonably and seriously regarded by more than one in ten of those to whom they are addressed.

Book excerpt: FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER THE ETYMOLOGICON. 'An informative but highly entertaining journey through the figures of rhetoric ... Mark Forsyth wears his considerable knowledge lightly. He also writes beautifully.' David Marsh, Guardian. Mark Forsyth presents the secret of writing unforgettable phrases, uncovering the techniques that have made immortal such lines as 'To be or not to be' and 'Bond. James Bond.' In his inimitably entertaining and witty style, he takes apart famous quotations and shows how you too can write like Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde or John Lennon.
