The Rhetorical Reader, Consisting Of Instructions For Regulating The Voice, With A Rhetorical Notation - Softcover
Synopsis
The Rhetorical Reader, Consisting Of Instructions For Regulating The Voice, With A Rhetorical Notation, Illustrating Inflection, Emphasis, And Modulation: And A Course Of Rhetorical Exercises. Designed For The Use Of Academies And High-Schools by Ebenezer Porter is a 19th-century instructional primer on vocal delivery and public speaking. Porter argues that effective reading and speaking hinge on mastering voice regulation, inflection, emphasis, and modulation, and he provides a compact theory of vocal notation alongside a substantial program of exercises. The book blends theoretical guidance with practical drills, including articulation, inflection, emphasis, and modulation, supplemented by glossaries on cadence, pauses, accent, gesture, and rhetorical dialogue. It comprises prefatory remarks, directions to teachers, and extensive exercises, drawing on both biblical and secular sources to illustrate principles, while aiming to advance Christian education and professional eloquence in academies and high schools. The work also emphasizes habits formation, moral sentiment, and the preventive value of good elocution in professional life.
