Proceedings of the National Association of Elocutionists by National Association of Elocutionists Pdf

Excerpt from Proceedings of the National Association of Elocutionists: Tenth Annual Meeting, Held at Buffalo, New York, June 24 to 28, 1901 Mr. Dillenbeck: 111 r. President, Ladies and Gentlemen - It took a second invitation from our worthy President to get me to con sent to occupy this position, and as soon as I made up my mind to take it and had chosen my topics, I wrote to various members of the Association, asking them if they would be prepared to discuss the topics under consideration. Without exception, I think. Every one replied that it would be utterly impossible for them to think of such a thing as they were entirely too busy, or something of that kind. So I made up my mind that we would have to rely upon voluntary work from the Association. The topic under consideration this morning, Atmosphere, is one full of meat and of great importance to us all. First, What do we mean by atmosphere? Second, What does it contribute to a reading? Third, How create this atmosphere? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Elocutionists by Marian Wilson Kimber Pdf

Emerging in the 1850s, elocutionists recited poetry or drama with music to create a new type of performance. The genre--dominated by women--achieved remarkable popularity. Yet the elocutionists and their art fell into total obscurity during the twentieth century. Marian Wilson Kimber restores elocution with music to its rightful place in performance history. Gazing through the lenses of gender and genre, Wilson Kimber argues that these female artists transgressed the previous boundaries between private and public domains. Their performances advocated for female agency while also contributing to a new social construction of gender. Elocutionists, proud purveyors of wholesome entertainment, pointedly contrasted their "acceptable" feminine attributes against those of morally suspect actresses. As Wilson Kimber shows, their influence far outlived their heyday. Women, the primary composers of melodramatic compositions, did nothing less than create a tradition that helped shape the history of American music.

Constructing Opportunity by Elizabeth K. Eder Pdf

Constructing Opportunity: American Women Educators in Early Meiji Japan tells the story of Margaret Clark Griffis and Dora E. Schoonmaker, two extraordinary women who transcended the traditional boundaries of nation, class, and gender by living and working in an alternative cultural setting outside the United States in the 1870s. Author Elizabeth K. Eder draws on numerous primary sources, including unpublished diaries and letters, to give both an intimate biographical account of these women's lives and an examination of the social and institutional frameworks of their professional lives in Japan.

Paraliterary by Merve Emre Pdf

Literature departments are staffed by, and tend to be focused on turning out, “good” readers—attentive to nuance, aware of history, interested in literary texts as self-contained works. But the vast majority of readers are, to use Merve Emre’s tongue-in-cheek term, “bad” readers. They read fiction and poetry to be moved, distracted, instructed, improved, engaged as citizens. How should we think about those readers, and what should we make of the structures, well outside the academy, that generate them? We should, Emre argues, think of such readers not as non-literary but as paraliterary—thriving outside the institutions we take as central to the literary world. She traces this phenomenon to the postwar period, when literature played a key role in the rise of American power. At the same time as American universities were producing good readers by the hundreds, many more thousands of bad readers were learning elsewhere to be disciplined public communicators, whether in diplomatic and ambassadorial missions, private and public cultural exchange programs, multinational corporations, or global activist groups. As we grapple with literature’s diminished role in the public sphere, Paraliterary suggests a new way to think about literature, its audience, and its potential, one that looks at the civic institutions that have long engaged readers ignored by the academy.
