Effective Public Speaking the Essentials of Extempore Speaking and of Gesture (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Effective Public Speaking the Essentials of Extempore Speaking and of Gesture
The following pages aim to embody in clear and concise form the essentials of practical, extempore speaking. No attempt is made to add to the bibliography of oratory, which is already adequate. This can hardly be said, however, of the bibliography of practical address. A few admirable books on this phase of public speaking have appeared within recent years, but much that is helpful in the way of new viewpoints and new methods of presentation remains to be written. To distinguish between the aim of the writer on oratory and the purpose of the present treatise, I quote from a book, recently republished in this country, which represents the oratorical viewpoint:
"Once face to face, and at grappling point with his idea, he [the orator] will forget everything else. He will no longer see anything save the thought which he has to manifest, the feeling of his heart which he has to communicate.
