Book Description
Excerpt from Oral English or the Art of Speaking This book has been written to supply a need. The vocational and civic importance of the ability to speak has been recognized by teachers of English throughout the country, but as yet the meaning of "Oral English" is rather vaguely and variously understood. We are conscious of our goal, but we lack method in our efforts to attain it. It is true that we no longer imagine that the art of speaking can be taught in a half-dozen lessons to the commencement speaker or the interscholastic debater, but we still lack that systematic basis of instruction which has already been furnished for the older subjects and which is necessary to a well-directed activity. This text is the outgrowth of ten years of experiment and research and in its present form is the result of many careful revisions. It is hoped that it may prove to be a useful guide in the oral work of the regular four years English course as well as in the work of the special course in Public Speaking. Suggestions as to ways in which its usefulness may be increased will be cordially accepted. Certain features of the work are original; the chief of these are the general plan of presentation, the handling of the four forms of discourse, and the word-outline method of oral preparation described in Chapters VII and VIII.

Book Description
Excerpt from Oral English and Public Speaking Oratory is that branch of public speaking wherein persuasion is effected through an appeal to the emo tions of the hearers. Extempore Speaking, or oral composition, is that kind of public speaking wherein the speaker forms the language for the expression of his thought at the moment of its delivery. In extempore speaking the thought is outlined in advance, while impromptu speaking means no special advanced preparation either of language or of thought. Argumentation is the process of trying to prove a given proposition as true or false. Argumentation may be oral or written. Debate is oral argumentation under conditions such that an opponent is present and waiting to reply. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Good English Oral and Written, Vol. 1 This book is intended for use in the third and fourth years of the elementary school. The authors believe that children speak and write for the same reason that adults do - to tell something that is in their minds, something related to their own experiences, some thing that has a note of personal interest or preference or Opinion. Therefore, the material on which conversation and written exercises are based has been selected with refer ence to its living interest to children and its vital relation to their experiences. This material, moreover, has had thorough test in the classroom. It is now generally agreed that children learn to speak and write interestingly and effectively by speaking and writing under proper inspiration and guidance. Something to say and someone to say it to - an interesting subject and an interested audience - are prime requisites for growth of language power. In this, moreover, oral speech holds first claim on the atten tion of the school, because we speak more than we write. Throughout this text the authors have held clearly in mind these fundamental principles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Art of Reading and Speaking T1113 demand for this book indicates that there is a strong desire for improved reading and speaking. I wish to thank many correspondents, from all parts of the kingdom, and from America, who have taken so warm an interest in the subject on which I have sought to stir public Opinion. Language is the greatest power in the world. It cm power. English is the most powerful tongue in the world to-day. Science, art, commerce, the intellect, the soul - all bask under it. Nowhere else is there such a literature as we possess. Liberty has been born and fostered under it. By-and-by the English tongue will be the world's tongue. It is worth our while, then, to study it. To quicken its study has been my object in this book, and to raise the standard of speaking in the Senate, in the Church, at the Bar, in the School, in the Home.
