Sinossi
Excerpt from Best Things From Best Authors, Vol. 9: Comprising Numbers Twenty-Five, Twenty-Six, and Twenty-Seven of Shoemaker's Best Selections
Now, if I were talking shop to my brethren of the scribbling trade, I should point this obvious moral, that it is our duty to write nothing but the best thoughts, and to write them in the best words at our command. If it be a benefit to the race to make two blades of grass grow where only one grew before, how evil a thing it must be to place a noxious weed where a good plant might grow. Yet that is what men are doing, in books and magazines, and even in the illustrated supplements of the Sunday news papers. They are writing stuff that, for the good Of the world, had better be left unwritten. But men must write, they say, and if they cannot write well, they must write as well as they can. Stuff and non sense! NO man is under compulsion to write at all. Why not join Colonel Waring's white-robed brigade instead It would be far better to make the streets clean than to make books and papers unclean.

Best Things From Best Authors, Vol. 9 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandDa: Forgotten Books, London, Regno Unito
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the vital bond between literature and elocution, examining how they serve as modes of thought expression, one in written form and the other in vocal form. The author delves into the history of both disciplines, demonstrating how the same rules of excellence apply to each, and argues that elocutionists should not only pay attention to vocal production but also to the work's meaning. The author suggests that elocutionists strive to not only deliver the words of a piece but to interpret the author's meaning and emotion, making elocution the audible expression of literature and thought. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the relationship between literature and elocution and offers insights on delivering a speech or engaging with literature more fully. 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. Codice articolo 9780243575749_0
