Lectures on Eloquence and Style
Excerpt from Lectures on Eloquence and Style
The Lectures on Eloquence do not comprise an entire course. With reference to them, Dr. Porter remarks in his Directions respecting his mss. These Lectures were ia tended as a sequel to those which have been incorporated into my Analysis of Rhetorical Delivery. I was induced to enlarge on the vocal organs, by urgent request of those whose judgment I regarded, and because no instruction on the abuses of those organs, has been accessible in' any regular form to young min istera.
The Lectures on Style are also designedly limited in extent.
