Sinossi
Excerpt from Lectures: Read to the Seniors in Harvard College
I have not attempted a systematic view of rhetoric, either in compliance with the statutes of the professor ship, or according to any idea of my own. So obvious will this be, that the lectures may Often be more justly regarded as essays upon subjects suggested by rhetoric than as orderly treatises upon its proper topics. As I have taken but a part of the course for publication, and, for convenience, have sometimes divided a lecture according to the prominent topics, the separate articles will probably appear still more independent of each other and even of the art which they ought ever to have kept in sight.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of the author's lectures on rhetoric and oratory, exploring the differences between ancient and modern eloquence. The author argues that ancient orators had a much greater degree of freedom and influence in their societies, and that this led to a more passionate and persuasive style of oratory. In contrast, modern orators are more constrained by the rule of law and the prevalence of print, which has led to a more restrained and deliberative style of oratory. However, the author argues that eloquence is still a vital tool for persuasion and that it can be effectively used to promote positive change in society. 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 9781331289401_0
