Download or read book Writing and Speaking Vol 2 written by Charles Sears Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Writing and Speaking, Vol. 2: A Text-Book of RhetoricThe separate publication of Part II in this volume is intended to supply consecutive advanced study for school classes that have already mastered the principles of composi tion in simpler applications. It deals with the library, both for the compilation of facts and for the study of literary form; but its main object is to lead a student's own writing and speaking forward by making it appeal to all his widening interests. In order to indicate the plan of the whole work, as well as to suggest profitable lines of review for those who have studied the elements in another text-book, the topics of Part I, which is also published separately, have been retained in the table of contents (pages xv - xviii). The few refer cucos to Part I in the text are for the convenience of students who have used that book; the summaries and specific exer cises of review, mainly for those who have used another. But the present volume, given any systematic elementary study, is complete in itself.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

(cheers and laughter.) That doctrine is one to which, within reasonable limits, I am perfectly ready to subscribe, and, if it holds good anywhere, it cer tainly hos good in India. It would be an interesting task to consider the sheet upon the history of India which might have been produced if the Scotch ingredient had been withdrawn from amongst those who had the making of the land we live in. To pursue such an inquiry into the regions of history would carry me altogether beyond the limits Of an after-dinner speech. Moreover, it would probably be difficult to make researches in this direction, even if they were limited to the present day, 'without giving Offence to the susceptibilities of those who have had the misfortune to be born in less favoured parts of the British Islands (cheers and laughter.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Rhetoric and Oratory, Vol. 2 of 2: Delivered to the Classes of Senior and Junior Sophisters in Harvard University Finally the discourse may apply to several propositions, entirely distinct and separate from each other. In such cases the orator is sometimes compelled by the abundance of his subject to di vide his discourse into several distinct orations, each of itself complete. The proposition is sometimes used to express the object to be obtained in consequence of the measure proposed; and in these cases a number of subordinate propositions may be combined for the accomplishment of one. Thus in Burke's speech on conciliation with America, immediately after the exordium and the narration, he says the proposition is peace. Not peace through the me dium of war; not peace to be hunted through the labyrinth of intricate and endless negotiations; not peace to arise out of universal discord, foment ed from principle in all parts of the empire; not peace to depend on the juridical determination of perplexing questions, or the precise marking the shadowy boundaries of a complex government. It is simple peace; sought in its natural course. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The honorable gentleman from South Carolina has made an allusion to a speech made by me, in 1824, in the other house, in support of the tariff, and to which, otherwise, I should not have particularly referred. But I would ask any one, who can now command the courage to peruse that long produc tion, what principle there laid down is not true?
