Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive manual of elocution, teaching students how to use their voices effectively when reading, reciting, or speaking spontaneously. It begins by discussing the importance of elocution, tracing its history back to ancient Greece and Rome, and explaining how it has been studied by some of Englandās most renowned orators. The author includes principles of elocution still used today, showing how this book is part of a long history of teaching effective speech. The author then delves into vocal exercises, teaching articulation, pronunciation, intonation, stress, and other vocal techniques. He also provides guidance on gesture, emphasizing that it should enhance rather than replace vocal expression. The book's thorough examination of vocal techniques, both historical and practical, makes it a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving their public speaking abilities.
