Book excerpt: Excerpt from Second Year English Composition and Rhetoric This book is intended for students in the second year of the high school. It is not a full treatise on composition, nor a complete rhetoric. It includes as many and as much of the principles of these two sub jects as a second-year student may reasonably be expected to master. There is therefore no attempt to spread these few pages over the whole field of Eng lish writing: attention is rather directed to a few questions, treated fundamentally and thoroughly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric It is believed that well-prepared students of the first and second years of the high-school can use this book, although certain schools which have not been able to devote much time to the study of English might find it profitable in the third and fourth years. In either case it is hoped that this book may be a directing and suggestive force, especially if it be supplemented by frank class-criticism upon the themes. Too much can not be said of the value of such criticism from teachers and students. It is often difficult to draw out, but once it is secured, it will be found to have both a stimulating and a restraining influence on the written work of the students, and will make the study of English a pleasure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English: Composition-Rhetoric-Literature The literature selections have been edited with the design not only of supplying necessary information but also of inducing the student to do his own thinking. There is at present far too much so-called appreciation and far too little real thought expended upon literature. In the prepara tion of the Exercises and of the Notes and Questions the authors have constantly borne in mind this supreme aim of education - the development of the ability to think.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Composition and Rhetoric: A Manual Numerous attempts have been made, and are still making, to methodize instruction in English Composition. In these attempts, two distinct efforts are made for the benefit of the pupils; to cultivate in them a copious fund of expression, and to render more delicate their discrimination of good and ill effects. As regards increasing the pupils' fund of expression, the English teacher can do comparatively little. The reason is obvious. The command of language is a grand total, resulting from the practice of a life; a small fraction of that total is all that can grow up within the limits of a Course of English Composition. With respect to the other aim - the discrimination between good and bad in expression - the case is different. Much of the necessary instruction can be condensed into principles, and may be impressed by carefully chosen examples. The teacher is here a trainer, and can impart in a short compass, what, without him, would be acquired slowly, if at all. It is this, accordingly, that I account his principal vocation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effective Expression: A Textbook on Composition and Rhetoric for the Four Years of High School and the First Year of College We trust we have made the book self-explanatory. We have emphasized getting ready to write in an introductory chapter, for it is the best approach to the subject; we have treated the fundamental prin ciples and the rhetorical qualities, vitally, for too often they have been but empty words; we have shown the philosophy of the paragraph and the topic-sentence, together with the relation of the topic-sentence to the method of development, for the paragraph is the unit of the composition, and mastery of it goes far toward mastery of the whole subject. We have corrected the popular conception that rhetoric is flowery writing by showing that it is the art of effective writing; we have shown that diction, grammar, the use of figures of speech, and the study of poetry are essential for all who would so handle pure, crude facts, the raw material, as to make the finished product effective. We have shown that oral composition is best treated along with written composition and that such a method both saves time and increases efficiency. The chapter on The Finished Product reveals the importance of bringing the knowledge of literature to bear upon our writing, and shows how and what to read until one has formed his own taste and needs less guidance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steps in English: Composition Rhetoric This book aims to teach young people to write effectively by having them write. It furnishes them with models from the masters, and asks them to use their own experiences as working material. Further, in the second part it develops a plan to teach them to write accurately, by training them to recognize, and thus to avoid, their errors. That his own hours are full of experiences adapted to literary expression is made known to the pupil by the study of literature in its relation to life. Of these experiences he has definite knowledge, and about them he can think clearly; and clear thinking, which comes only from clear knowing, usually results in ready and forceful expression. The book, in addition, lays a foundation for the appreciation of literature. To profit by the master writers the pupil must be able to recognize the value of their works. Accordingly he is here taught that literature is full of suggestion, and he is made to understand the various devices by which an author conveys this suggestion. When these methods have been discovered and sufficiently illustrated, the learner is asked to use them in writing about familiar experiences. Thus he is given a higher standard than a properly punctuated, rhetorical statement of facts, with the result that his theme work becomes a vital thing, - a pleasure, not a task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Composition and Rhetoric The present volume, which has been prepared in response to the wish of many teachers, observes throughout the principle followed in Books I and II of the same series: it considers language in its relation to thought and the expression of thought. Like the previous volumes, it is practical rather than theoretical. It connects the subject of composition with the experiences of everyday life, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, with the study and appreciation of literature. The plan of the book, though simple and transparent, is novel in some respects, and may justify a word of explanation. Part I is in itself an elementary manual of composition. It sets forth, in plain terms, the object and method of the study; it discusses words, sentences, and paragraphs; it explains and illustrates the principles of unity, variety, emphasis, and transition; it treats of the selection and arrangement of material; and it gives abundant practice in writing letters and brief essays. It may be used by younger or older classes, according to the grading of the pupils and the amount and character of their previous training in English; and it is well adapted to the purposes of a review or general survey of the subject in preparation for the systematic study of the Forms of Discourse in Part II. Thus Part I affords a means of transition from one stage of progress to another and enables the pupil to begin his more advanced work in composition with a firm grasp on the first principles of the art and considerable facility in applying them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric for Schools Certain beliefs that the authors of Composition and Rhetoric for Schools hold in reference to the teaching of English composition have influenced them in preparing the present text-book. 1. In the earliest years, the critical side of teaching should be subordinated to the constructive, stimulative side; the pupil should be encouraged to write freely and even unconsciously at first, to form habits of thought and of invention before his expression is minutely criticised and pruned. For this reason a preliminary course (Part I) of constructive work has been provided. To these chapters nothing has been admitted of a negative or minutely critical nature. The processes of work that a conscientious writer follows are described, as closely as possible in the natural order in which these processes occur in a writers experience. 2. Much, if not all, of the usual freshman course of rhetoric in colleges can properly be included in the secondary course in English without requiring more time than is already devoted to the subject. In view of the fact that only a small percentage of the students of secondary schools enter college, it seems desirable to present to the high-school pupil all the elementary facts of style, such as usage, clearness in sentences, paragraphing, etc. Many of the best text-books designed for schools, however, are purposely incomplete in treatment; they take for granted that the student will pursue a further course of instruction.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Composition and Rhetoric What should be most emphasized in a text-book on English composition is a question of much difficulty. My chief concern has been to discover what could be omitted rather than what could be included. The aim of the teacher of composition should be to bring his students into such an attitude of mind that a subject may be to them a genuine question to be answered, and not a mere occasion for combining words into sentences without regard to the thought. I have, therefore, laid especial emphasis on the choice and treatment of themes. If a writer can form the habit of choosing one sharply defined topic and of telling exactly what he thinks, the imperfect details of his composition can be corrected by reading and practice. I need scarcely remark that no book of instructions will make a finished writer. Only constant practice and merciless criticism by the writer himself can yield the desired result. My purpose is, therefore, rather to develop a few general principles than to prescribe definite rules. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric: Based on Literary Models The book is intended to furnish a complete course in high schools and for beginning courses in academies, seminaries, and normal schools. It is recommended that high school students master first the lessons on narration and description, paying especial attention to devices for ornamentation and to description in the short story; then take up exposition and its combination with narration and description, emphasizing the work on the book review, the historical or biographical essay, and the nature sketch; and complete the course with argumentation and persuasion as found in combination with the other three forms of discourse in the debate and the oration. To Mr. George B. Aiton, State Inspector of High Schools for Minnesota, and to Mr. R. W. Bruere, of the Department of English, The University of Chicago, the authors are indebted for the reading of the work in proof and for many valuable suggestions.
