The Rhetorical Reader (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the art of reading and speaking well, arguing that these skills are essential not just for public speakers, but for anyone seeking a well-rounded education. The author, a respected figure in the field of education, laments the prevalence of poor reading habits among young people and argues that these stem from inadequate teaching methods. He believes that the lack of structured instruction in the art of reading, combined with a reliance on simple imitation, hinders students from developing the skills necessary for engaging and expressive delivery. The author champions a more systematic approach to reading, one that combines theoretical understanding with practical application. He stresses the importance of analyzing vocal sounds and understanding the principles of inflection, emphasis, and modulation. The author argues that these principles are not arbitrary rules, but rather natural expressions of emotion and thought that give voice to the nuances of language. The book aims to equip readers with the tools to break free from ingrained bad habits and cultivate a more natural and expressive reading style. Ultimately, the author believes that mastering the art of reading is essential for personal growth and for enriching our understanding of the written word. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332909261_0
