Excerpt from The Elements of English Composition: A Preparation for Rhetoric
The next step beyond the. Reproduction in the line of condensation is the Summary. The matter given for the Summary is much greater than for the Reproduction, and the required essay may be made shorter. The object of the Summary is brevity of expression and grasp of thought. If these various exercises be at first applied to easy matter, stories, simple poems, etc., the pupil will be able to apply them with great advantage, in a more advanced part of his course, to the more difficult subjects of history, science, orations, etc.
The Paraphrase deals exclusively with style. The passage given is short; the pupil is obliged to concem trate his efforts on the best ways of re-expressing it. The excellence of this exercise no experienced teacher will doubt. Dr. Harris says, One increases rapidly in the command of language when he is required to para phrase, and to discover the advantages and disadvantages of the modes of expression used by himself and others.
