Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Art of Discourse: A System of Rhetoric, Adapted for Use in Colleges and Academies, and Also for Private Study
Exercises have been subjoined to the several de partments of Invention and Style, as fully as seemed desirable. They will be found sufficient for private study. In classes under permanent instructors the selections of exercises must necessarily be left to a great extent with the instructor. In the author's Rhetorical Praxis may be found two thousand or more themes, with rudimental exercises in all rhetorical processes. His Art of Composition contains the principles of proper sentence-construction, presented in p1ogres31ve method, including an introduction to the use of imagery or rhetorical symbols and to the ele mentary processes in the unfolding of thought, and accompanied throughout with copious exercises.
