Riassunto

Excerpt from Evolution of Expression, Vol. 3 of 4: A Compilation of Selections Illustrating the Four Stages of Development in Art as Applied to Oratory

As the student grows in his power to create vital pictures in the imagination of his hearers, there grows within him the de sire to emphasize the beauty of the pictures. He would Show that the logical service of the part which he is presenting is not only a vital service but a beautiful service as well. From this new endeavor is born taste.

In the earlier stages of development, there were many things which, if measured by absolute art standards, did not serve, and were therefore unlovely. They doubtless served a high purpose in the pupil's development, and were not in vain, but with the dawning perception of the Beautiful the unnecessary things in voice and in action gradually drop away. With the development of taste, the student has taken a long step up the ladder leading to the plane of art.

The more vital the picture, the more beautifully does it serve; hence, drill in presenting vitalized pictures develops the sense of propriety. All excellence is contained in and grows out of life.

Remember that here, as hitherto, the student's activity may be stimulated, but must not be forced. He must grow, however Slowly, into a perception of taste. The teacher must be careful lest he paralyze the mind by anticipating the evolution of nature, and by setting up art criteria which the unfolding mind is not yet ready to fulfil.
