The first part provides an overview of the history and importance of letter writing, as well as an introduction to the different types of letters that students may encounter. The second part of the book focuses on the mechanics of letter writing, including topics such as grammar, punctuation, and style. The third and final part of the book offers practical advice on how to write effective letters, including tips on how to structure a letter, how to choose the right words, and how to convey the appropriate tone.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples of letters, both good and bad, in order to illustrate key concepts and highlight common mistakes. The book also includes exercises and writing prompts to help students practice their letter writing skills.Overall, ""Letters and Letter Writing: As Means to the Study and Practice of English Composition"" is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their writing skills, particularly in the area of letter writing.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book has been prepared in the belief that there is a place for the emphasis of heretofore undeveloped possibilities in composition writing, and that contributions yet to be made to the teaching of English will consist of chapters on single topics thoroughly treated, rather than of books covering the whole subject and containing a re-statement of what has already been so well and so satisfactorily said. The specimen letters in Part I commend themselves by their own value; many of them have not before been given to the general public; some of them are old and very well known; all of them are precious. The annotated list of letters at the end of this part calls attention to many letters not given in the text. The work in Part II aims to show what practical use can be made of the letters in Part I, as models for composition through letter-writing, and to illustrate the adequacy of the epistolary forms for securing ease and fluency in written expression. It further aims to show that the average school situation through its studies, through the experiences of its student life, and through the larger social life surrounding it, is rich in genuine motives for letters.
