Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Orator's Own Book The Orator's Own Book purports to' be a, careful selection of exercises in Elocution, containing speci mens, either for committing to memory or for read ing, from the most celebrated authors of ancient and modern times. In forming a style of public speaking, much of the manner must of acourse depend upon training and example; but in the matter of thought and expression models must be selected, which, by the universal consent of mankind, are deemed worthy of imitation.

The directions for public speaking have been made as brief and intelligible as possible, and are derived both from observation and established authorities. In this respect the present is conceived to be an im provement on Aformer works which have had mainly the same objects in View; to this feature is added a superiority of typographical execution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Download or read book Oratory and Orators Classic Reprint written by William Mathews and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oratory and Orators The French philosopher, d'alembert, goes so far as to say of eloquence, that the prodigies which it often works, in the hands of a single man, upon an entire nation, are perhaps the most shining testimony of the superiority of one man over another and Emerson expresses a simi lar opinion when he says that eloquence is the appro priate organ of the highest personal energy. As there is no effort of the human mind which demands a rarer combination of faculties than does oratory in its loftiest ights, so there is no human effort which is rewarded with more immediate or more dazzling triumphs. The philosopher in his closet, the statesman in his cabinet, the general in the tented field, may produce more lasting effects upon human affairs, but their in uence is both more slowly felt, and less intoxicating from the ascend ancy it confers. The orator is not compelled to wait through long and weary years to reap the reward of his labors. His triumphs are instantaneous; they follow his efforts as the thunder-peal follows the lightning's ash. While he is in the very act of forming his sentences, his triumph is re ected from the countenances of his hearers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Golden Age of American Oratory Although the Revolutionary orators ushered in this Golden Age of our Eloquence, no attempt has been made to describe them; because such a de scription now must be, at best, only a second-hand copy of their traditionary lineaments. Many of the illustrative remarks and conversa tions alluded to in this volume, especially of Mr. Clay, Mr. Webster, and Mr. Choate, were expressed directly to the author, or in his presence, by these gentlemen. He has not, however, thought it worth while to particularize these instances in the text; except where an important principle is asserted by such eminent authorities, or an important historical fact is narrated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of an Orator: With Examples From Great Masterpieces, of Ancient and Modern Eloquence Some voices, it is true, are of more limited compass than others; but most are full, reso nant, and melodious, of great range and flex ibility - capable of venting, at one moment, a tempest of passion, and of issuing, at another, in soft, low, murmuring accents that linger pleasantly in the ear. In both cases reading aloud is advantageous - to correct the defects of the one, to improve and strengthen the other. If, said the great critic, Ruskin, I could have a son or a daughter possessed of but one accomplishment in life, it should be that of good reading. When elocution is made a part of education, but not before, this accomplishment, so useful in itself and so val nable in the elementary training of an orator, will be within reach of every student.
