Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an introduction to elocution for aspiring young ladies, written with an emphasis on the underlying principles of flow and pitch of speech. The author sought to move away from the rigid and mechanical style then considered proper, and instead asserted that the tones of everyday speech could be applied to beautiful and effective reading aloud. Given as a series of vocal exercises, the author progresses from basic pronunciation, breathing techniques, and maintaining a healthy vocal range to more demanding techniques like vocal inflection and pauses for emphasis. The text also includes a variety of pieces for students to practice their elocution on, with specific attention paid to cultivating an expressive and passionate performance. The author's methods have made this work a valuable and popular resource since its release, finding consistent use in schools and preparatory academies for a century.
