The Rhetoric of John Donne's Verse by Wightman Fletcher Melton Pdf

Excerpt from The Rhetoric of John Donne's Verse: A Dissertation According to Goldsmith, all those 'misguided innovators' who succeeded, but did not understand Dryden, Addison, and Pope, 'are silent, and those who make out their meaning are willing to praise, to show their understanding.' There are so many literary historians, and writers on versification, who make no mention of John Donne, that we may take it for granted that he was either not understood, or not appreciated by them. Of those who do mention him, to praise or to condemn, it cannot be said that all, or any, fully understand him, - that praise and condemnation are sometimes offered to 'show understanding' there can be no doubt. Our first chapter makes no pretense to being an exhaustive study of Donne's critics, for the reason that our concern is only with the metrical side of his poetry. Even with this end in view, some important authorities may have been overlooked; but the showing is sufficient to enable one to trace the current of opinion from Ben Jonson to the present time. Occasionally when one critic quotes or refers to another, no further special mention will be made of the one so quoted or referred to. The second chapter is merely an application, to the poetry of Donne, of the theory of 'secondary word-accent in English verse, ' as advanced by Professor Bright and applied in the dissertations of his pupils, Huguenin, Brown, and Miller.

A Dissertation Upon Rhetoric by Aristotle Pdf

Excerpt from A Dissertation Upon Rhetoric In ushering to the world this treatise of the learned Stagyrite, I shall confess the difficulties which I have encountered, and the anxiety which I still feel as to its reception. That it is the greatest of all that great master's productions, is an assertion which I do not singly hazard. The learned and laborious Franciscus Philelphus terms it "Rhetorica illustrissimi philosophorum Aristotelis utilissima;" and this epithet has been strongly borne out by the following testimony of the celebrated Boileau Despreaux, in his preface to a translation of Longinus upon the Sublime: "C'est un ouvrage d'une extreme utilite; & pour moi, j'avoue franchement que sa lecture m'a plus profité que tout ce qui j'ai jamais lû en ma vie."

Essays on Classical Rhetoric and Modern Discourse by Robert J. Connors,Lisa S. Ede,Andrea A. Lunsford Pdf

Eighteen essays by leading scholars in English, speech communication, educa­tion, and philosophy explore the vitality of the classical rhetorical tradition and its influence on both contemporary dis­course studies and the teaching of writing. Some of the essays investigate the­oretical and historical issues. Others show the bearing of classical rhetoric on contemporary problems in composition, thus blending theory and practice. Com­mon to the varied approaches and view­points expressed in this volume is one central theme: the 20th-century revival of rhetoric entails a recovery of the clas­sical tradition, with its marriage of a rich and fully articulated theory with an equally efficacious practice. A preface demonstrates the contribution of Ed­ward P. J.Corbett to the 20th-century re­vival, and a last chapter includes a bibli­ography of his works.

The Foundations of Rhetoric (Classic Reprint) by Adams Sherman Hill Pdf

Excerpt from The Foundations of Rhetoric The Introduction sets forth as simply, clearly, and compactly as possible the leading facts of English grammar, including definitions of technical terms. The body of the book is in three Parts. Part I., which treats of Words, is divided into two books: in Book I., proper and improper expressions, arranged for convenience in classes that correspond to the several parts of speech, are set side by side; in Book II., questions of choice between words equally proper are considered. Part II., which treats of Sentences, is divided into two books: in Book I., good and bad sentences, arranged for convenience in chapters that correspond to the five important qualities of style, are set side by side; in Book II., questions of choice between sentences equally proper are considered. Part III. treats of Paragraphs. Believing that every one should be encouraged to do work for himself, I begin the discussion of every question with an example, - a practice which enables the student to discover for himself the rule under which the example falls. For young scholars this is the true order; for it is the order in which the mind naturally works. In experience, facts come before principles or rules: induction precedes deduction. Believing that attention should be drawn primarily to good English, I have, in every case in which proper and improper forms appear side by side, placed the proper form where it will first catch the eye. Within the prescribed limits, it is of course impracticable to enumerate all possible departures from propriety in the choice of words or in their arrangement.

The Principles of Rhetoric by Elizabeth H. Spalding Pdf

Excerpt from The Principles of Rhetoric: With Constructive and Critical Work in Composition "The art of instruction for the secondary school," it has been said, "may be summed up in one sentence: Inspire enthusiastic activity." It is not enough, however, to inspire such activity; provision for its proper exercise must be made. The material that forms the basis of this book was collected in my own classes during a period of years, for the purpose of arousing and satisfying the pupils interest and activity with reference to rhetoric and composition. Later, at the request of teachers, the material was put into the form of a book. That the book might meet general conditions in the classroom, it was submitted before its publication to able instructors and critics, teachers of English in a number of widely separated centres. Their suggestions were valuable, and are incorporated in the book as published. Because many text-books already in use contain admirable presentations of rhetorical principles, with exercises on some of them and with lists of composition subjects, ' it is by no means unnecessary for the author of a new rhetoric to state what differentiates his work from other books on the same subject.

Lectures on Rhetoric and Belles Lettres (Classic Reprint) by Hugh Blair Pdf

Excerpt from Lectures on Rhetoric and Belles Lettres The following lectures were read in the University of Edin burgh for twenty-four years. The publication of them, at present, was not altogether a matter Of choice. Imperfect copies {of them, in manuscript, from notes taken by students who heard them read, were first privately handed about and afterward frequently exposed to public sale. When the author saw them circulate so currently, as even to be quoted in print, * and found himself often threatened with surreptitious publications of them, he judged it to be high time that they should proceed from his own hand, rather than come into public view under some very defective and erroneous form.

Excerpt from Rhetoric and Oratory The aim of this book is to give the precepts for the building of a speech, and at the same time to place under the eye of both professor and student the speech built according to these precepts. Some works give the precepts alone, but not the complete illustrations, others supply the orations, but do not indicate how they were formed. They give neither the division of parts, nor the principles upon which to construct a discourse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
