Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essentials of Exposition and Argument: A Manual for High Schools, Academies, and Debating Clubs Since Argumentation and Debating was published, in 1908, it has been used by more than one hundred American universities and colleges. Many secondary schools as well, against the advice of the author, have attempted to use the book. It is not wholly adapted to the needs of their pupils, nor does it seem fitting for high schools and academies to give the time to Argumentation alone that a thorough study of the college text requires. The Essentials of Exposition and Argument, though retaining whatever good qualities the earlier book appears to have, is prepared expressly for the use of secondary schools. The aim of this book is to present the Essentials of Exposition and Argument as simply as possible, following the order in which the difficulties arise in actual practice. The point of view is that of the high-school student rather than that of the instructor. The amount of practical material, therefore, in proportion to the amount of theoretical material, is larger than is usual in manuals on this subject. The chapter on brief-drawing, for example, starts with a familiar proposition and takes the student step by step through the development of a complete working brief. The chapter on evidence deals not only with the tests of evidence, but as well with the sources and the methods of using evidence. In short, the book aims throughout to show the student how to go to work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
