Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Outlines of Rhetoric for Schools and Colleges Aristotle 1 regards Rhetoric as the Art of Persuasion Whately,2 as the Art of Conviction; Campbell,8 as the Art of Discourse. Campbell's definition is to be preferred as more comprehensive than either of the others, since it includes all forms of literary composition; but Aristotle justly emphasizes the most vital object of all Rhetorical study - which is: to move men to action, to accomplish some definite purpose.

Download or read book Writing and Rhetoric Book 1 Fable written by Fable Stu Ed and published by . This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Writing & Rhetoric series method employs fluent reading, careful listening, models for imitation, and progressive steps. It assumes that students learn the best by reading excellent, whole-story examples of litereature and by growing their skills through imitatiion. Each excercise is intended to impart a skill (or tool) that can be employed in all kids of writing and speaking. The excercises are arranged from simple to more complex. What's more, the exercises are cumulative, meaning that later exercises incorporate the skills acquired preceding exercises. This series is a step-by-step apprenticeship in the art of writing and rhetoric. Fable, the first book in the Writing & Rhetoric series, teaches students the practice of close reading and comprehension, summarizing a story aloud and in writing, and amplification of a story through description and dialogue. Students learn how to identify different kinds of stories; determine the beginning, middle, and end of stories; recognize point of view; and see analogous situations, among other essential tools. The Writing & Rhetoric series recovers a proven method of teaching writing, using fables to teach beginning writers the craft of writing well.
Download or read book The Science of Discourse written by Arnold Tompkins and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Discourse: A Rhetoric for High Schools and Colleges Man continually speaks or writes, reads or gives audience. Rhetoric deals with all these universal and lifelong processes; hence, its practical importance is obvious and emphatic. This study, however, got its name from the one exercise of speaking - from the Greek rhetor, speaker - because, in the political life of the Greeks, so much depended on the art of public address. If this study should be named now, and after the most effective means of formal communication, the term would come from reading or writing; and it would not matter which, as each presupposes the other. But we care now nothing for the name except to insist, in obedience to the demands of both life and logic, on its extension over all phases of the discourse process. Until quite recently it has been customary to organize this subject under the literal meaning of the word, attaching it to the chair of oratory in college and confining its practical value to those engaged in public address. Thus, as with the Greeks and Romans, it became the hidden art of the few by which fickle masses were to be swayed. But now it is not so much the swaying of masses that is needed as masses who can critically estimate and appreciate the utterances of others. And these utterances are comparatively seldom made now in the form of public address, but in that of the book, the newspaper, and the magazine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English: Composition-Rhetoric-Literature The literature selections have been edited with the design not only of supplying necessary information but also of inducing the student to do his own thinking. There is at present far too much so-called appreciation and far too little real thought expended upon literature. In the prepara tion of the Exercises and of the Notes and Questions the authors have constantly borne in mind this supreme aim of education - the development of the ability to think. Teachers are therefore urged to require the students to write all the Exercises and to answer all the Questions.

This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes for Teachers of English Composition (to Be Used in Connection With Elements of Rhetoric and English Composition, First High School Course) This pamphlet has two aims: (i) that of placing before the instructor certain hints as to method which could not appropriately be included in the pages of the text-book itself; and (2) that of gather ing together, for the sake of ready reference, typical answers to many of the questions asked in the exer cises. With regard to many of the answers much discretion is of course to be allowed. Those given in the following pages are, in cases where opinion and judgment play a part, simply those which seem to me typical, or which I should prefer in my own class-room. For assistance in the preparation of the pamphlet, my thanks are due to Miss Jeannette B. Gillespy, Assistant in English in Barnard College.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rhetoric a Text-Book, Designed for Use in Schools and Colleges, and for Private Study This work may be said to have grown, rather than to have been written for the purpose of making a book. Having used in the class-room, in academy and college, many of the text-books on Rhetoric, ancient and modern, foreign and American, and having instructed some classes without using a text-book, I have been most satisfied with the result when the method herein presented has been pursued. This book is therefore the result of actual experiment. Abstruse arguments about style and oratory, about the conflicting theories of taste and beauty, about conviction and persuasion, and the laws of mind, and the philosophy of language, are all good and valuable in their place; but a student may read and repeat them with but little more effect on his own habits of speaking or power to write well, than he would receive from an equal amount of study in mathematics, medicine, or law, or any other subject. At the same time, mere exercises in composition, on a series of topics presented, with a few outlines and directions, are too superficial to produce the desired result.

Download or read book Activist Rhetorics and American Higher Education 1885 1937 written by Susan Kates and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study of the history of rhetoric education, Susan Kates focuses on the writing and speaking instruction developed at three academic institutions founded to serve three groups of students most often excluded from traditional institutions of higher education in late-nineteenth-and early-twentieth-century America: white middle-class women, African Americans, and members of the working class. Kates provides a detailed look at the work of those students and teachers ostracized from rhetorical study at traditional colleges and universities. She explores the pedagogies of educators Mary Augusta Jordan of Smith College in Northhampton, Massachusetts; Hallie Quinn Brown of Wilberforce University in Wilberforce, Ohio; and Josephine Colby, Helen Norton, and Louise Budenz of Brookwood Labor College in Katonah, New York. These teachers sought to enact forms of writing and speaking instruction incorporating social and political concerns in the very essence of their pedagogies. They designed rhetoric courses characterized by three important pedagogical features: a profound respect for and awareness of the relationship between language and identity and a desire to integrate this awareness into the curriculum; politicized writing and speaking assignments designed to help students interrogate their marginalized standing within the larger culture in terms of their gender, race, or social class; and an emphasis on service and social responsibility.
Download or read book Scottish Rhetoric and Its Influences written by Lyne‚ Lewis Gaillet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An outgrowth of the recent meeting of the International Society of the History of Rhetoric, this collection challenges the reader to reexamine the broad influence of 18th- and 19th-century Scottish rhetoric, often credited for shaping present-day studies in psychology, philosophy, literary criticism, oral communication, English literature, and composition. The contributors examine its influence and call for a new appraisal of its importance in light of recent scholarship and archival research. Many of the essays in the first section discuss the contributions of recognized influential figures including Adam Smith and Hugh Blair. Other essays focus on the importance of 18th-century Scottish sermons in relation to public discourse, audience analysis, peer evaluation, and professional rhetoric. Essays in the second section address 19th-century rhetorical theory and its influence on North American composition practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Public Speaking: For the Classes in Public Speaking, Cornell University Young men should express themselves. From the cradle up we develop through Self-expression. Our keenest gratification comes from self-expression. This takes many forms, but'surely not the least of these is speech. Moreover, to stand before one 's fellows and try to influence and control them, is to develop personality and leadership. We learn through self-expression. No impression without express'ion, says William James in his Talks to Teachers (p. Nothing is ever true to any man until he has formulated it for Others, says Professor william'harder Squires. And this expression must not be put off till the plastic years are passed, waiting till deep study and large experience may have combined to furnish a commanding interest. Not only will the development be one-sided, but also facility in expression will be lacking; for the assumption that whoever has something to say will Say it well, is, as Cicero says, plausible but not true. It is only a great half-truth. At any rate, it often fails to be true. It would seem to be enough to call to mind the boredom we all Suffer from lecturers who really have something to say, but who struggle most painfully in the say mg of it. Even When we do listen.
