About this title

Synopsis

1915. A compilation of selections illustrating the four stages of development in art as applied to oratory. The Evolution of Expression recognizes the four general stages of man's development and Part One represents the period when the individual is engrossed with subjects or objects as a Whole and his passion for life is expressed through rude energy, size-the Colossal...In choosing the selections the aim has been to preserve the natural oneness between the study of literature and that of expression, and to encourage the appreciation of this unity in the minds of teacher and student. It may be said that the greatest of the world's literature was written for the ear, not for the eye, and its noblest influence is felt only when adequately voiced by an intelligent and sympathetic reader. A delightful volume designed to show the reader how they can attain the plane of art in expression.
