Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique and insightful approach to the art of reading, challenging traditional methods of elocution and advocating for a more natural and spontaneous style. The author argues that effective reading relies on a deep understanding of the text's meaning, rather than simply mimicking a set of pre-determined tones or techniques. He critiques the artificiality of many elocution systems, which, he argues, only serve to create mechanical readers obsessed with the sound of their own voices, rather than engaging their audiences with the thoughts and emotions of the author. Drawing on observations of renowned actors and readers like Edwin Forrest and Charlotte Cushman, the author emphasizes the importance of natural delivery, achieved through a thorough understanding of the author's intent and a deep engagement with the text. The book provides detailed analysis of specific passages from Shakespeare, illustrating how to identify and emphasize key words, phrases, and ideas, thereby achieving a nuanced and compelling reading. The author further explores the significance of deportment and posture in public speaking, advocating for a calm, composed, and natural presence that avoids excessive gestures and distracting movements. By integrating insightful observations on the art of reading with practical advice on delivery and deportment, this book offers a timeless and invaluable guide for anyone seeking to master the art of engaging and affecting their audience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
