Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... ON READING ALOUD Question. What is required in reading aloud well? Answer. First, the ability to give thoughts to your listeners. Q. For what do readers usually strive? A. For mechanical perfection in speaking words and in giving attractive action, however irrelevant it may be. Q. What is the second requirement for good reading? A. That your eye be educated to glance ahead and quickly comprehend what is coming, that you may look at your audience, thereby emphasizing the main thought. A very good way to gain facility along this line is to place your book or manuscript on a table and walk by it and around it, glancing at it for promptings as seldom as possible. Q. Give another requirement for good reading. A. A pleasing voice with theoretical and practical knowledge of its use. Q. What is the vital requirement for good reading? A. The possession of that intangible, elusive something, termed "individuality," which defies definition but which instantly communicates itself to the listener. Q. What is the difference between individuality and personality? A. Individuality is the broader, bigger, more comprehensive term. It is the ego, the real man shining through his personality, which in a sense is external. Q. What should be both a duty and a pleasure when you first come in touch with a new book or poem? A. A consideration of the author. Who is he? Is he living? What has he written? How does the book or selection you have in hand rank among his writings? Is this his major performance? For instance: "The Star Spangled Banner," by Francis Scott Key; "Home, Sweet Home," by John Howard Payne; "America," by Samuel F. Smith; "Pilgrim's Progress," by John Bunyan; "The Arabian Nights," translated from the Arabic. In considering the greater...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Actor's Art: A Practical Treatise on Stage Declamation, Public Speaking, and Deportment, for the Use of Artists, Students, and Amateurs, Including a Sketch on the History of the Theatre, From the Greeks to the Present Time N experience of many years in teaching singing and acting, has convinced me, that the latter as well as the former art can be reduced, like grammar, to a series of rules; and in the present work will be found, briefly, but plainly and practically recorded, the result of my experience. Every person who comes before the public, either in the capacity of a singer, an actor, a preacher, or a barrister, must study, under particularly different aspects, the management of the voice, with the rules of elocution and action. Each of these branches forms a special study. The observations here offered in the first instance to singers and actors, may also have some interest for preachers and barristers, inasmuch as they treat of the voice and elocution. It would manifestly be impossible to handle the subject exhaustively within the limits I have been obliged to prescribe to myself, in a treatise of this kind; but it has been my endeavour to give the results of my observations and experience in a plain practical manner, that will not, I trust, be without its use to the student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democratic Vernaculars is a comprehensive, culturally inclusive, and thematically unified history of the communicative, audience-centered rhetorical vernacular that occupies the “middle range” of English, bounded on the one side by expressive structure (grammar and linguistics) and on the other by aesthetics (literature). Broadening the history of rhetoric by considering a vast collection of vernacular resources such as elementary grammars and readers, popular guidebooks, textbooks, and rhetorical treatises, this book advances the history of the rhetorical theory and pedagogy since the 17th century by examining ways in which diverse vectors of the rhetorical vernacular coalesced to produce an English language sufficiently idiomatic for practical social exchange while being, at the same time, suitable for higher literary, scholarly, and cultural pursuits. Democratic Vernaculars is essential reading for scholars in rhetoric and the histories of language and education, and can serve as a text for upper-division undergraduate and graduate courses in rhetoric.

Download or read book Conversational Rhetoric written by Jane Donawerth and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the scholarly exchange regarding the history of women in rhetoric has emphasized women’s rhetorical practices. In Conversational Rhetoric: The Rise and Fall of a Women’s Tradition, 1600–1900, Jane Donawerth traces the historical development of rhetorical theory by women for women, studying the moments when women produced theory about the arts of communication in alternative genres—humanist treatises and dialogues, defenses of women’s preaching, conduct books, and elocution handbooks. She examines the relationship between communication and gender and between theory and pedagogy and argues that women constructed a theory of rhetoric based on conversation, not public speaking, as a model for all discourse. Donawerth traces the development of women’s rhetorical theory through the voices of English and American women (and one much-translated French woman) over three centuries. She demonstrates how they cultivated theories of rhetoric centered on conversation that faded once women began writing composition textbooks for mixed-gender audiences in the latter part of the nineteenth century. She recovers and elucidates the importance of the theories in dialogues and defenses of women’s education by Bathsua Makin, Mary Astell, and Madeleine de Scudéry; in conduct books by Hannah More, Lydia Sigourney, and Eliza Farrar; in defenses of women’s preaching by Ellen Stewart, Lucretia Mott, Catherine Booth, and Frances Willard; and in elocution handbooks by Anna Morgan, Hallie Quinn Brown, Genevieve Stebbins, and Emily Bishop. In each genre, Donawerth explores facets of women’s rhetorical theory, such as the recognition of the gendered nature of communication in conduct books, the incorporation of the language of women’s rights in the defenses of women’s preaching, and the adaptation of sentimental culture to the cultivation of women’s bodies as tools of communication in elocution books. Rather than a linear history, Conversational Rhetoric follows the starts, stops, and starting over in women’s rhetorical theory. It covers a broad range of women’s rhetorical theory in the Anglo-American world and places them in their social, rhetorical, and gendered historical contexts. This study adds women’s rhetorical theory to the rhetorical tradition, advances our understanding of women’s theories and their use of rhetoric, and offers a paradigm for analyzing the differences between men’s and women’s rhetoric from 1600 to 1900.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " America stocks its shelves with mass-produced goods but fills its imagination with handmade folk objects. In Pennsylvania, the ""back to the city"" housing movement causes a conflict of cultures. In Indiana, an old tradition of butchering turtles for church picnics evokes both pride and loathing among residents. In New York, folk-art exhibits raise choruses of adoration and protest. These are a few of the examples Simon Bronner uses to illustrate the ways Americans physically and mentally grasp things. Bronner moves beyond the usual discussions of form and variety in America's folk material culture to explain historical influences on, and the social consequences of, channeling folk culture into a mass society.

Download or read book Educating Character Through the Arts written by Laura D'Olimpio and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates the role of the arts in character education. Bringing together insights from esteemed philosophers and educationalists, it looks to the arts for insight into human character and explores the arts’ relationship to human flourishing and the development of the virtues. Focusing on the moral value of art and considering questions of whether there can be educational value in imaginative and non-narrative art, the nine chapters herein critically examine whether poetry, music, literature, films, television series, videogames, and even gardening may improve our understanding of human character, sharpen our moral judgement, inculcate or refine certain skills required for virtue, or perhaps cultivate certain virtues (or vices) themselves. Bringing together research on aesthetics, ethics, moral and character education, this book will appeal to students, researchers and academics of philosophy, arts, and education as well as philosophers of education, morality, aesthetics, and teachers of the arts.

Download or read book The Art of the Sublime written by Roger Homan and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the view of Hegel and others, pagan art is the art of the beautiful and Christian art is the art of the sublime. Roger Homan provides a comprehensive and informative account of the course of Christian art, encompassing a re-evaluation of conventional aesthetics and its application to religious art. Homan argues that taste and aesthetics are fashioned by morality and belief, and that Christian art must be assessed not in terms of its place in the history of art but of its place in Christian faith. The narrative basis of Christian art is documented but religious art is also explored as the expression of the devout and as an element in the trappings of collective expression and personal quest. Sections in the book explore pilgrimage art, puritan art, the tension of Gothic and Classical, church architecture and the language of worship. Current areas of debate, including the relationship of ethics to the appreciation of art, are also discussed.
