Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Faults of Speech: A Self-Corrector and Teachers' Manual This little work supplies a want of which I have been frequently reminded during my professional career. In revising the "Principles of Speech and Vocal Physiology" for a new edition in 1863, a section of the book was devoted to the "Cure of Stammering;" and in another section - the "Dictionary of Sounds" - reference was made under each consonant to the defects to which the element was subject: but a complete separate treatise on the Faults of Speech has not hitherto been published. I am glad to be able still, to add to my professional publications one which, I hope and believe, will prove not the least useful of the whole.

Book excerpt: An excerpt from the beginning of the first chapter: ELEMENTARY SOUNDS. THE processes of speech are mechanical, but they are intimately associated with mental operations. Sometimes the mechanical processes are mismanaged, and sometimes the intellectual associations are-imperfect. In the latter case, expression is tardy or inexact; in the former, utterance is interrupted or vitiated. The two kinds of defect may be combined, or either may exist separately. Stammering, stuttering, etc. are, for the most part, mechanical defects; drawling, hemming, and--uh -- uh--hesitation are, in great measure, faults of the intellect. The observations in this work will have reference to failures in the mechanical execution of speech. The fact that "everybody speaks," and yet not one person in a thousand knows how he speaks; and that children talk the language of their nurses -- be it English, French, German, Italian, Indian, Patois, or whatever else --proves that language is normally acquired by imitation. A child imitates with more or less accuracy the general effect of the sounds it hears; but, in doing so, makes many substitutions of easier for more difficult actions of the organs of speech. The lips and the forepart of the tongue are the first of the articulating organs to be brought into use; and "turn," "tat" and "tate" in most cases satisfy the child's apprehension of the words "come," "cat" and "cake." The action of the back of the tongue is often not acquired for years. Infantile defects arc unwisely encouraged by parents, who--with the requisite knowledge--might enable their children to pronounce correctly as soon as they begin to prattle at all. There can be no doubt that the most serious blemishes and impediments arise from parental neglect--or rather ignorance--in this respect. When a child says "turn" for "come," and "tin" for "king," the correct articulation will be induced almost at the first trial by the simple expedient of holding down the forepart of the tongue with the finger. The effort to imitate the general effect will then force the back of the tongue into action; and in a few days at most, the child will, without any assistance, form k, g and ng where before it could only utter "t," "d" and "n". The "shut" consonants (p, t, k, b, d,g) are the most easily acquired, and children consequently pronounce "p" instead of the more difficult "f," and "t" instead of "th." A few minutes devoted to amusing exercise will conquer this difficulty. Thus: tell the child to bite his lower lip, and blow, and he will form a tolerable "f "at once; or to bite his tongue, and blow, and a passable "th" will be the result. The sounds of "s" and "sh" are often for a long time confounded; also those of "s"' and "th." The sound of s will be obtained from "th" by drawing back--or, if assistance is needed, by pushing back--the tip of the tongue till it is free from the teeth. The teeth require to be very close for "s", but there will be room to insert the edge of a paper-cutter to "play" the tongue into position. The sound of "sh" will be obtained from "s" by drawing--or pushing--back the body of the tongue till it is free from the gum. The sibilation of "sh" is formed between the middle of the tongue and the palate, modified by a degree of elevation of the point of the tongue also: that of "s" is formed between the point of the tongue and the upper gum, modified by a degree of convexity of the middle of the tongue: and that of "th" is formed between the tip of the tongue and the upper teeth, with the edges of the tongue flattened against the side teeth to obstruct the breath at all points but the tip. The sounds of "l" and "r" are generally the last to be mastered by a child. The "l" resembles "th" in having the point of the tongue in contact (preferably with the gum), but the sides of the tongue....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular for more than two decades among college voice teachers and their students, this outstanding, authoritative vocal pedagogy text is an invaluable manual. It thoroughly examines the vocal problems prospective voice teachers will encounter daily in the teaching studio and choral rehearsal. The author’s approach is a unique one, based in large part on diagnostic procedures similar to those used by doctors. As each vocal fault is presented, its identifying characteristics or symptoms are stated, its possible causes are discussed, and corrective procedures are suggested. An especially valuable feature is the book’s accompanying audio files (available here for download) that contains 14 male and female voice samples of the various vocal faults discussed in the text, enabling students to better identify basic characteristic sounds associated with each fault. Current and prospective choir directors and voice teachers who need help in improving the vocal sounds of choir members or students will find this practical guide-book to be an ever-present help in time of trouble.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long-lost and forgotten book by the author of the Passover Plot, Hugh J. Schonfield under the pseudonym of “Hegesippus” First published in 1932, this little book caused a sensation and stir amongst conservative Christians yet its explanation of the famous so-called Sermon on the Mount still blows like a breath of fresh air today! The original dust jacket reiterated current reviews: “From first to last the pages vindicate the tenets and words of Christ.” – the Christian “This moving book which all earnest Christians will welcome.” – Dr. McInnes in the Scots Observer “His book is of immense importance.” – City Mid-Week “The Arguments are put forward with so little passion or rhetoric and are so obviously supported by scholarship and knowledge that the case seems beyond refutation.” – City Mid-Week “The exposition here given is supported by Talmudic and other Jewish writings … singularly apt and illuminating.” – The Christian It probably remains, as also stated on the front cover: The Greatest Exposition of the Sermon on the Mount
