Synopsis

Have you been looking for a composition program that incorporates the clical approach? Well, we've got something even better: Memoria Press' new Clical Composition program, written by James Selby, doesn't just incorporate the clical approach, it is the clical approach. Going back to the method of writing instruction used for over 2,000 years, Clical Composition teaches the student 14 composition s, called the progymnasmata, a set of elementary rhetorical exercises that formed the basis of persuasive writing. This approach was used to teach writing by Quintilian and Cicero, and produced writers such as Milton, Shakespeare, and Benjamin Franklin. In the Fable Stage, students learn to master the ability of variation and paraphrasing, implementing the clical tenet of imitation. The texts they use as models are taken from the fable writer, Aesop. Teacher Guide sold separately.
