Synopsis
Excerpt from The Making of an Orator: With Examples From Great Masterpieces, of Ancient and Modern Eloquence
"It is a mark of an instructed mind to rest satisfied with that degree of precision which the nature of the subject admits, and not to seek for exactness where only an approximation to the truth is possible." Aristotle.
"I consider that with regard to all precepts the case is this, not that orators by adhering to them have obtained distinction in eloquence, but that certain persons have noticed what men of eloquence practised of their own accord, and formed rules accordingly: so that eloquence has not sprung from art, but art from eloquence." Cicero.
"The work of the orator from its very inception is inextricably mixed up with practice. It is cast in the mould offered to him by the mind of his hearers. It is an influence principally received from his audience, so to speak, in vapour, which he pours back upon them in a flood." Gladstone.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a guide to mastering the art of public speaking, drawing on the authorââ â¢s extensive experience in the House of Commons, at the Bar, and on the platform. Itââ â¢s not simply about learning to talk, but about crafting compelling and persuasive speeches that resonate with an audience. The author takes a practical, step-by-step approach, starting with the basics of voice control and clear articulation and progressing to more advanced techniques. The book emphasizes the importance of mastering the simple art of conveying facts in a clear and logical manner, a skill that the author argues is often overlooked, even by seasoned orators. Through analysis of speeches by historical figures like Demosthenes and Cicero, as well as examples from more recent speakers, the author delves into the various elements that contribute to effective oratory, including the skillful use of rhetoric, the power of narrative, and the art of persuasion. The book emphasizes the importance of adapting the style of a speech to its specific audience and purpose.
