Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Canadian Readers, Vol. 6: With a Treatise on Elocution, Biographical and Critical Notes, and Useful Appendixes In the preparation of the Sixth Reader several objects have been kept in view, to which unequal importance will probably be attached by those into whose hands the book may come in the ordinary course of school work. It is intended in the first place that the volume shall be a useful aid to the teacher in training his pupils how to read. In this respect it is self-contained, as the brief treatise on elocution which forms the introduction does not necessarily presuppose any acquaintance with either the principles or the art of good reading. It would be a mistake for the teacher, who wishes either to excel as a reader himself or to train his pupils to the highest pitch of excellence in this delightful accomplishment, to content himself with the study of this treatise, but for the ordinary school work it will be found highly useful if not amply sufficient. The specimen exercises appended to the introduction have been chosen with great care and specially edited for the express purpose of exemplifying the application of the principles discussed. Some of the passages which make up the text of the book have been selected rather for their elocutionary than for their literary value, though no one will be found that does not in some degree possess both. Useful elocutionary hints have been appended to those selections that seemed to call for such aids. It is further intended that this volume shall be a useful manual for literary study and English composition. No attempt has been made to preserve a chronological arrangement, or indeed any other except that of alternating prose with poetry. As the collection is not supposed to be graded according to the intrinsic difficulty of the passages the latter may be taken up in any order to suit the taste of the teacher. The prose as well as the poetical selections present a great variety of styles and rhetorical forms, the critical analysis of which cannot fail to have a valuable educative effect. Assistance in this part of the work is furnished in the appendixes, and to some extent in the foot notes, but the teacher will be amply rewarded by applying for aid to fuller treatises dealing with the points there touched upon.
