Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ready-Made Speeches In presenting them to the public it seems proper to preface them with a few simple suggestions as to their most efficient use. First, in the matter of length they have been regulated by the requirements of their various themes, as those themes appealed to the author. He has, however, kept in sight the probability that in many instances the speaker may desire to say many things not in the original speech, and yet may Wish to profit by the formally prepared address. Having respect for this very laudable im pulse, the author has endeavored so to adjust the several parts of the speeches that the speaker, after availing himself of the carefully prepared opening, may give full expression to his own personal opinions and suggestions, and return at the close to the conclusion as herein given. This may, perhaps, be better explained by an illustration. Take, for example, the first address in the book that upon the Presentation of a'f lag to a Mili tary Organization.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Speeches The Speeches of Phillips are now, for the first time, offered to the world in an authentic form. So far as his exertions have been hitherto developed, his admirers, and they are innumerable, must admit, that the text of this volume is an acknowledged reference, to which future criticism may fairly resort, and from which his friends must deduce any title which the speaker may have created to the character of an orator. The interests of his reputation impose no necessity of denying many of those imperfections which have been imputed to these productions. The value of all human exertion is comparative; and positive excellence is but a flattering designation, even of the best products of industry and mind. There is, perhaps, but one way by which we could avoid all possible defects, and that is, by avoiding all possible exertion.

Download or read book Famous Speeches written by Herbert Paul and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Speeches: Selected and Edited With Introductory Notes A selection of speeches ought to include specimens of every class, so that no kind of oratory Should be altogether un represented. There have always been, perhaps in the nature of the case there must always be, at least two forms of rhetoric, often typified by the examples of Demosthenes and Cicero. There is the 'keen, terse, argumentative style, to be found in the great Athenian. There is the elaborate, or ornamental, decorative kind, of Which Cicero was the most consummate master, which aims less at the achievement of an immediate object than at the production of a general result. Neither kind can be excluded from any really representative series. Yet it must not be supposed that the two sorts of Speaking can always be separated, or that they are never found in the same speech. There must be some general proposition at the back of every practical scheme. There must be some particular inference to be drawn from every general rule. Much as the characters of speeches may vary, they have the common element of being all made for persuasion. A speech which does not persuade is useless. There are, how ever, examples of the eloquence which results from intense personal conviction, and has no ulterior motive, the eloquence of feeling.

Download or read book Mr Chamberlain s Speeches Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Joseph Chamberlain and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mr. Chamberlain's Speeches, Vol. 1 Early this year the publishers of these volumes inquired Whether my father would be willing that they should re produce a selection from his speeches. The idea pleased him, and he was gratified by Mr. Boyd's ready consent to undertake the task of selection and presentation. He accordingly placed at Mr. Boyd's disposal the scrap books in which had been collected the newspaper reports Of his speeches from the beginning to the end of his long public life. The choice made from this vast mass of material is Mr. Boyd's. NO restrictions or conditions of any kind have been imposed upon him. The principle which has guided his selection is explained in his prefatory note. It was to make the collection representative of the full sweep of a long and famous career.' It Will, I think, be found that he has admirably fulfilled this promise. It was my father's Wish that I should prefix a few words of introduction to the collection. The time has not yet come, nor in any case am I the proper person, to measure exactly all he did and all he was, but these speeches will show something of the man, of his character, and Of his achieve ments. He cared little about charges of inconsistency, and no attempt is made here to gloss over any change of thought or method. But I believe with him that through all his years of unceasing growth and widening outlook on men and things there was an underlying consistency Of Spirit and of purpose which gives unity to the whole.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Speeches: With Introductory Notes We all wish to leave behind us the memorial more lasting than brass of which the poet speaks, and I think we would all prefer to be remembered by a portrait rather than by an epitaph. This book is my portrait. I have put all of myself into these speeches. And I would like to think that when I am dead those who come after me and are for any reason interested in the story of my life will be able to form a judgment for themselves about me, and so far as possible judge me by my own words and actions. I must add a word as to the forensic speeches. A speech in a criminal or civil case is meant to secure a particular result, the verdict or the judgment, as the case may be; and its purpose is wholly fulfilled when that result is obtained. Here the art of rhetoric is at its highest; but it is not easy to choose forensic speeches for reproduction. Many are so full of detail which was well understood by the judge or jury to whom they were addressed that they cannot be appreciated or enjoyed by those who have not heard the evidence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Speeches, Lectures, and Letters Twenty-eight years ago, in 1863, Wendell Phillips yielded to the solicitations of his friends, and revised for publication a selection of his Speeches, Lectures, and Letters. The moment was well chosen. On the one hand public interest in the Antislavery question, the constant burden of the orator's utterance, had widened and deepened with the progress of the war, and had reached its height when the Emancipation Proclamation appeared; and on the other hand, the personal popularity of Mr. Phillips was steadily rising throughout the North and the West. Both these changes account in part for the welcome the volume at once received. But its permanent place among the records of American eloquence is due to deeper and intrinsic reasons. The classic is always contemporary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Great Speeches You have kindly suggested to me that in my hands is the task of restoring peace to our distracted country. I can say in return, sir, that all the political sentiments I entertain have been drawn, so far as I have been able to draw them, from the sentiments which originated in and were given to the world from this hall. I have never had a feeling, politically, that did not spring from the sen timents embodied in the Declaration of Independence. I have often pondered over the dangers which were incurred by the men Who assem bled here and framed and adopted that Declaration. I have pondered over the toils that were endured by the officers and soldiers of the army who achieved that independence. I have often inquired of myself what great principle or idea it was that kept this Con federacy so long together. It was not the mere matter of separation of the colonies from the motherland, but that sentiment in the Declaration of Independence Which gave liberty not alone to the people of this country, but hope to all the world, for all future time. It was that which gave promise that in due time the weights would be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should have an equal chance. This is the sentiment embodied in the Declaration of Independence. Now, my friends, can this country be saved on that basis? If it can, I will con sider myself one of the happiest men in the world if I can help to save it. If it cannot be saved upon that principle, it Will be trulyawful. But if this country cannot be saved without giving up that principle, I was about to say I would rather be assassinated on this spot than surrender it.

(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.)
