Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New Composition and Rhetoric for Schools During the twelve years in which Herrick and Damon´s Composition and Rhetoric for Schools has been in use, the authors have seen no occasion to alter their general views as to the function of such a text-book. The following statements are therefore repeated from the preface to the first edition with such slight changes as are necessary to make them conform to the present text. 1. In the earliest years the critical aim in teaching should be subordinated to the constructive, stimulative aim; the pupil should be encouraged to write freely and even unconsciously at first, to form habits of thought and of invention before his expression is minutely criticised and pruned. For this reason Part I has been made in the main a preliminary course of constructive work. In these chapters, the processes of work that a conscientious writer follows are described, as nearly as possible, in the natural order in which these processes occur in a writer´s experience. 2. Much, if not all, of the usual freshmen course of rhetoric in colleges can properly be included in the secondary course in English without requiring more time than is already devoted to the subject. In view of the fact that only a small percentage of the students of secondary schools enter college, it seems desirable to present to the high-school pupil all the elementary facts of style. Many of the best text-books designed ford schools, however, are purposely incomplete in treatment; they take it for granted that the student will pursue a further course of instruction. 3. In the secondary course, the text-book in rhetoric is often too markedly separated from the work in composition. Frequently it is assigned to be taught during one year of the course, or one term of a ear, and is afterwards dismissed from the pupils´s attention.
