Synopsis
Elements Of English Composition, Grammatical, Rhetorical, Logical, And Practical. Prepared For Academies And Schools. This late nineteenth?century didactic manual serves as a classroom guide for students to learn narrative, biographical, historical writing, argumentation, sermon composition, and poetry, with a strong emphasis on grammar, syntax, punctuation, capitalization, and the integration of linguistic accuracy with rhetorical aims. The text adopts a rule?driven, prescriptive approach, featuring explicit definitions, labeled parts of speech, and extensive exercises—copying, dictation, sentence rewrites, and corrections—drawn from classical, biblical, and literary sources. Topics span capitalization, spelling, nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, moods and tenses, the subjunctive, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, etymology, and root forms. It also covers composition across genres (biography, history, travels, sermons, letters) and the principles of argument, invention, and stylistic refinement, aiming to cultivate clarity, unity, coherence, rhythm, and moral register in prose and verse.
