Book Description
Excerpt from The Fundamentals of Speech: A Behavioristic Study of the Underlying Principles of Speaking and Reading, a Text Book of Delivery The excuse for a new text on this old subject is the growing democratization of instruction in speech. The academic worth of the subject is now unquestioned, with the result that new courses in speech-training are multiplying, from primary grade to university graduate school. This is as it should be; for in a democratic country too much attention cannot be paid to instruction in speech. No democracy could possibly exist without a maximum of effectiveness in public and private discussion among its citizens. To meet this democratic need for educating the masses in effective speech methods a new text finds justification in proportion as it emphasizes the need for carrying speech instruction to all kinds and conditions of men. This book, then, is offered as a statement of fundamentals that lead into any of the paths the subject may take: conversation, common reading, interpretation, impersonation, public speaking, dramatics, and the speaking we call oratory. Democratization of speech-training is its prime object. To accomplish this object it aims to incorporate whatever methods have heretofore found favor by virtue of the good results they have produced. With this end in view it aims to offer speech-training for the whole man: body, voice, and mental mechanism.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Fundamentals of Speech: A Behavioristic Study of the Underlying Principles of Speaking and Reading, a Text Book of Delivery So whenever men are greatly in earnest, whenever they desire the truth and the truth fairly, they gather in groups to talk, listen, and observe. By no possible intensifying of writing and reading can man ever satisfy or supplant his desire to foregather with his kind, look his fellow in the eye, speak or listen, personality to personality, heart to heart, soul to soul. The spoken word is as much more vital and valuable than the written as a telephone conversation is more satisfactory than a telegram, or a conversation than a letter - and for the very same reasons.
