Synopsis
Elements Of Rhetoric: Comprising An Analysis Of The Laws Of Moral Evidence And Of Persuasion, With Rules For Argumentative Composition And Elocution by Richard Whately. This work presents rhetoric as a disciplined, rule-based extension of logic, aimed at improving both thinking and written or spoken argument. It argues for a balanced program that integrates energy (forceful expression) with elegance (style) while cautions against empty rhetorical tricks. The text outlines four parts: Part I on Invention, Arrangement, and Propositions; Part II on Persuasion; Part III on Style (addressing energy, antithesis, and the proper use of poetry versus prose); and Part IV on Elocution (delivery), including a critique of artificial, mark-based methods and a case for natural, extemporaneous speaking. An Appendix collects authorities and cautions about nature vs. art in speech. The work is pitched to mature writers and speakers, including educators, and seeks to provide practical, ethical guidance for better conviction, influence, and effective public discourse.
