Book Description
Many non-native English speakers, in America and elsewhere, do not feel at home with the English language--no matter how long they have studied English back home or lived in the English-speaking world. They still speak a literally translated English that others find it not so easy to understand, let alone be persuaded. Much of this conundrum emanates from the inconvenient truth that they have not yet crossed the bridge to the world of English rhetoric: the way in which the natives often use words--nonliterally or figuratively--in everyday life and in public discourse, which of course is not unique to the English language. This handbook takes a giant step to cross that bridge by introducing over two hundred rhetorical tools and norms of communication, which are deeply rooted in culture. These tools are elucidated with mesmerizing stories behind--such as The writing on the wall meaning a big trouble ahead or Why are you eating your heart out?, teasing why you are so depressed. This handbook will help you master English rhetoric with fun and zest. And unknowingly in time, will you find truly at home with English rhetoric once so alien to you. munja yeongeo beonyeogeseo beoseona jayeonseureobge sotonghaneun hoeggijeogin retorig yeongeoro codaehabnida. i caegeun 200 gae isangyi nolral manhage heungmirobgo seoldeugryeogi pungbuhan salaissneun yeongeoyi retorikal pyohyeongwa seutaileul pohamhago issseubnida. i caegi gyegiga doeeo harusoghi eoneoeseo oneun ijilgameseo beoseona miguggwa segye mudaeeseo seungrihaneun salmeul cuguhagi barabnida.

Book Description
The Writing & Rhetoric series method employs fluent reading, careful listening, models for imitation, and progressive steps. It assumes that students learn the best by reading excellent, whole-story examples of litereature and by growing their skills through imitatiion. Each excercise is intended to impart a skill (or tool) that can be employed in all kids of writing and speaking. The excercises are arranged from simple to more complex. What's more, the exercises are cumulative, meaning that later exercises incorporate the skills acquired preceding exercises. This series is a step-by-step apprenticeship in the art of writing and rhetoric. Fable, the first book in the Writing & Rhetoric series, teaches students the practice of close reading and comprehension, summarizing a story aloud and in writing, and amplification of a story through description and dialogue. Students learn how to identify different kinds of stories; determine the beginning, middle, and end of stories; recognize point of view; and see analogous situations, among other essential tools. The Writing & Rhetoric series recovers a proven method of teaching writing, using fables to teach beginning writers the craft of writing well.

Book Description
Exploring how far early modern travel writing could give the strange the ring of truth, this book offers rhetorical readings of the representations by early modern writers of new worlds and the wonder experienced before them. The author complements, and sometimes counters, recent work on early modern travel literature by concentrating on its use of rhetoric to communicate meaning. In doing so, he suggests how familiarity with the workings of rhetoric may enhance readings of early modern English literature generally.
