Excerpt from Practical Work on ElocutionIn order to meet the demands of my students for a practical work on Elocution I have written this little work on the subject. It is designed especially for class use.In it. I have endeavored to be plain and practical, eschewing as far as possible all Latin terms which in themselves, in most works on the subject, only tend to obscure. The student will find no adornment here, but only that which will be really helpful to him in the study of gesture and breathing.As the voice needs a living teacher, I have said nothing about it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
