Synopsis

Excerpt from The Principles of Rhetoric: With Constructive and Critical Work in Composition

A knowledge of rhetoric increases the power to appreciate literary work and, as a consequence, adds to the enjoyment of literature; for essays, novels, plays, poems, live from age to age not only because they hold thoughts and feelings of deep interest to mankind, but also because they reveal those thoughts and feelings in a masterly way.

The study of rhetoric is, therefore, of practical value and has a direct bearing upon life and growth.
