Produktbeschreibung
The Science of Discourse: A Rhetoric for High Schools and Colleges is a comprehensive guide to the art of effective communication, written by Arnold Tompkins and first published in 1897. The book is designed to help students develop their abilities to write and speak persuasively, using a range of rhetorical techniques and strategies.The Science of Discourse is divided into three main sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of rhetorical theory and practice. The first section covers the basic principles of rhetoric, including the importance of clarity, coherence, and consistency in communication. It also explores the different types of arguments and evidence that can be used to support a persuasive message.The second section of the book delves deeper into the art of persuasion, examining the various rhetorical devices that can be used to engage an audience and win them over to a particular point of view. This section covers topics such as metaphor, analogy, irony, and hyperbole, as well as more subtle techniques like tone and pacing.The final section of The Science of Discourse focuses on the practical application of rhetorical theory, offering guidance on how to write and deliver effective speeches, essays, and other types of persuasive communication. It includes examples of successful speeches and essays, as well as exercises and assignments designed to help students hone their rhetorical skills.Throughout the book, Tompkins emphasizes the importance of ethical communication, urging readers to use their rhetorical abilities for the greater good and to avoid using manipulation or deception to achieve their goals. The Science of Discourse remains a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their communication skills and become a more effective advocate for their ideas and beliefs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
