FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER THE ETYMOLOGICON.
'An informative but highly entertaining journey through the figures of rhetoric ... Mark Forsyth wears his considerable knowledge lightly. He also writes beautifully.' David Marsh, Guardian.
Mark Forsyth presents the secret of writing unforgettable phrases, uncovering the techniques that have made immortal such lines as 'To be or not to be' and 'Bond. James Bond.'
In his inimitably entertaining and witty style, he takes apart famous quotations and shows how you too can write like Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde or John Lennon.
Crammed with tricks to make the most humdrum sentiments seem poetic or wise, The Elements of Eloquence reveals how writers through the ages have turned humble words into literary gold - and how you can do the same.

In 2009 he started the Inky Fool blog in order to share his heaps of useless information with a verbose world. His books have made him one of the UK s best-known commentators on words.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Using examples from a vast range of writings, Mark Forsyth presents an amusing and wonderfully erudite guide to the 'formulas, flowers and figures' of rhetoric. For each of 39 figures, he explains some that are well-known - hyperbole, paradox, rhetorical questions - and other, less familiar strategies that work their magic behind the scenes, such as diacope in the immortal phrase 'Bond. James Bond.'. Codice articolo 512876
