Description
Advanced Public Speaking: Theory and Techniques Based on the Rhetorical Canons provides students with classical and contemporary theory, detailed guidance and techniques, and explorations of various aspects of argumentation related to the development and delivery of a variety of speeches. The book leads students through the five rhetorical canons--invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery--offering them a conceptual overview, followed by an operational framework, and ending with cautions on what to avoid in order to become stronger speakers. This structure provides students with a highly practical model they can use when constructing their own speeches. The text presents a myriad of rhetorical strategies, stylistic devices, and practical examples for students to draw upon, including vital insights for crafting informative, persuasive, argumentative, and storytelling speeches, as well as effective visual presentations. Two appendices feature outline templates for the various ways to organize a speech and a visual depiction of hand gestures to aid students in their delivery and performance. Advanced Public Speaking equips students with the information they need to develop into confident and capable public speakers. The book is an exemplary guide for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level courses in public speaking.
