This will, it is believed, aid in keeping each subject more completely apart from the others than if the ordinary method of numbering were followed. Little will be found here relating to emotional ex pression; such work belongs to a later period of mental development than was contemplated in pre paring this manual. The painful exhibition of preco cions, hot-house passion has no part in the author's scheme of education. Even those of more mature years who may find this manual useful are advised to thoroughly master its precepts before e saying higher flights. The great essential is a solid foundation of conversational delivery. Emotion that is, genuine will find its own outlet, if the channels of expression are free.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primer of Elocution and Action This little work is intended for beginners in expression. It gives, in as simple language as the writer can command, the elements of the art. The order in which the lessons are given is in accordance with the author's experience in teaching classes of the grade for which it is designed. Teachers of wider experience may find another arrangement preferable; if so, it is an easy matter to assign the lessons as they please. The difficulty has been to select only such exercises and rules as are absolutely essential for young students. It cannot be expected that all will agree with the author's judgment in this particular; nevertheless, the satisfactory results obtained by adhering strictly to the matter contained herein have convinced him that while much of importance might easily have been added, nothing that was absolutely necessary has been omitted. Suggestions looking toward improvement will, however, be thankfully received. Toward the end, the lessons are more difficult and longer than in the beginning. Since the book was planned to cover at least a school-year of ordinary elocutionary training, the latter part, it is hoped, will be found to have but kept pace with the mental and artistic development of the pupil. The chapters on pantomimic expression may, however, be subdivided or reserved for a second year's course, if deemed advisable. Many pupils will, of course, go over the whole ground very quickly. I do not advocate memorizing the lessons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Theconstant necessity for applying the instructions to the practical work of expression will soon fix in the pupil's mind all that is of importance. Discuss thoroughly each chapter, multiplying the illustrations and trying to lead the pupil to work out for himself, if possible, the solution of the problems under consideration. Exercises relating to a particular subject are num bered consecutively throughout the book without re gard to other exercises that may intervene. For instance, under Breathing, Exercises 1, 2, and 3 will be found in Lesson IV, and 4, 5, 6, and 7 in Lesson XIX.

Download or read book The Language Readers Primer Classic Reprint written by Joseph H. Wade and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Language Readers Primer The child comes to school at the age of six or seven with a speaking vocabulary of several hundred words, say from five hundred to seven hundred words. This number will vary according to his environment and home influences. In teaching reading to these first year pupils, the aim should be to teach the child to recognize the symbols for the ideas which he already possesses. In other words, the aim is not to enlarge the child's speaking vocabulary but rather to convert it into a reading vocabulary. The child must learn to associate form and sound; the printed symbol must suggest an idea. Furthermore the child must learn to translate these symbols into oral language expressively rendered. If the class be one composed largely of children who speak little or no English, the problem is more complex. The teacher must build up an English vocabulary for the most commonplace actions and ideas, and, at the same time, must associate the spoken words which the pupils are learning day by day with the printed or written symbols. That is, the teacher must teach English speech as well as reading. In this Primer no particular method has been fol lowed absolutely. The aim has been to use the best features of the word, the look and say, the sen tence, the phonic, and the Gouin methods. Nouns, verbs, and adjectives in common use form the basis of the child's reading vocabulary. These should be taught as sight words. As an introduction to the work in reading, such commands as stand, face, etc., which are at first given orally by the teacher, may be written on the board and the children directed to obey them. The first sentences in this Primer direct the performance of certain actions, one purpose being to secure silent reading before oral reading is attempted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elocution: Its First Principles In speaking, every portion of the body should be free and unrestrained. The lower part of the chest ought particularly to be under easy, but firm, control. The throat, jaws, lips, and tongue must be so restful as to become free of all feeling of tension, and be able to respond promptly, flexibly, and sym pathetically to the will. Any hard compres sion or straining of these organs will weaken the natural functions of the lungs and chest by transferring the fulcrum of control to the wrong point.

OF ELOCUTION BY ALFRED AYRES.c-.y-.-.. AUTHOR OF "l'HE ORTHOEPIST," "THE VERBALIST' 11 THE MENTOR, ' ETC. 44 Art is the perfection of nature."--Sir Thomas Browne. "The perfection of art is to conceal art."--QuiNTILIAN. FUNK & WAGNALLS NEW YORK 1386 LONDON IO AND 12 DRV STREET 44 FLEET STREET All Rights Reserved. Entered, according to Act ot Congress, in the year 1886, by FUNK & WAGNALLS, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress at Washington, D. C, PREFACE. This is the shortest treatise on the Art of Reading that has ever been written in the English language; yet, short as it is, it is of more practical value than are all the others--which is not saying much in its praise, for all the others are of no practical value whatever. The mode of procedure herein recommended, in order to become skilled in elocution, is wholly unlike anything that has hitherto found its way into print. Yet what is here is older than the oldest of the venerable " systems " that have come down to us from former generations, for what is here dates back to the time when men began to exchange ideas by means of a spoken language. Then, as ever, the sensible man--spoke he his own language or that of another--spoke naturally, and not as the elocution of the books, and of most teachers of the art, would have us speak, for that tends to make only bow-wowers and sing-songers. New York, March, 1886. Alfred Ayres. THE ESSENTIALS OF ELOCUTION. Elocution is the art of speaking language so as to make the thought it expresses clear and impressive. This is best done by speaking the language as we should speak it if the thought were ours, and the language came to.us as we givTe it utterance. If the thought were ours, and we extemporized the language to express it, we should...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammar of Elocution The following work is an attempt to systematise the study of elocution by furnishing such a collection of facts and rules as may enable a learner both to read and speak with propriety. The numerous evidences of the importance attached by the Greeks and Romans to. Elocution compel us to believe that men must in the classical ages have regarded it as an accomplishment capable of being systematically learnt and taught. Yet no great time has elapsed since this apparently obvious truth was denied, and elocution regarded, as Dogberry regarded reading and writing, as a gift of nature, to be improved perhaps in some vague way by practice, but unworthy of being considered an art. This idea is gradually losing ground, but still lives, for were it not so, how would it be possible for so many men, whose business it is to read and speak effectively.
