(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

A passage from the book... It is obvious that the style of your public speaking will depend upon the specific purpose you have in view. If you have important truths which you wish to make known, or a great and definite cause to serve, you are likely to speak about it with earnestness and probably with eloquence. If, however, your purpose in speaking is a selfish one-if your object is self-exploitation, or to serve some special interest of your own-if you regard your speaking as an irksome task, or are unduly anxious as to what your hearers will think of you and your effort-then you are almost sure to fail.Pg 12 On the other hand, if you have the interests of your hearers sincerely at heart-if you really wish to render a worthy public service-if you lose all thought of self in your heartfelt desire to serve others-then you will have the most essential requirements of true and enduring oratory.

Excerpt from Christ: The Master Speaker Comparatively few students of public speaking have thought of studying Christs method of delivery. This book, therefore, suggests a new and important field of inquiry. The supreme element in Christ's speaking was its authoritativeness. His clear, definite, vital message had the weight of eternity behind it. Absolutely convinced of the truth of his message, "He spoke as one having authority, and not as the Scribes." As one has well said, "The form of Christ's teaching was as varied and as simple as were its methods. It was the spontaneous outcome of the requirements of the moment.

Excerpt from Impromptu Speeches: How to Make Them An after-dinner speech should be extemporaneous, but none the less thoroughly prepared. Adaptability, ease, spontaneity, and self-confidence, so characteristic of the best speakers, are not usually gifts of nature but the acquisitions of study and practise. Successful speech-making, whatever the form or occasion, always implies something of importance to say on the part of the speaker and the ability to say it well. These qualifications are within the reach of any man willing to apply himself to the study with earnestness and diligence.

The student of public speaking should assiduously develop a large and varied vocabulary to insure the ability to clothe his thoughts in appropriate and effective language. Word-power has its basis in thought-power. There must be clarity and strength of ideas to insure these qualities in expression. Words and ideas are intimately related, one complementing the other. Therefore the proper study of words implies an associated study and development of such processes as conception of ideas, comparison, meditation, judgment, and mental picturing.

( A delightful and eclectic compendium of choice phrases...)
A delightful and eclectic compendium of choice phrases and paragraphs from days gone by from author of a long list of inspirational books and guides to oratorical success and personal development. “The experienced public speaker acquires through long practice hundreds of phrases which he uses over and over again. These are essential to readiness of speech, since they serve to hold his thought well together and enable him to speak fluently even upon short notice. This book is one of practice, not theory. The student should read aloud daily several pages of these phrases, think just what each one means, and whenever possible till out the phrase in his own words. A month's earnest practice of this kind will yield astonishing results. He should also study the paragraphs, reprinted here from notable speeches, and closely observe the use made of climax and other effects. The phrase and the paragraph are the principal elements in the public speaker's English style, and the student will be amply repaid for any time he devotes to their analysis.” -GRENVILLE KLEISER

In my work as instructor in elocution and public speaking, I have not found a text-book whoU ysuited to my requirements. There are numerous theoretical works of interest to teachers, but few of them are of practical value to students. It is confidently believed that the present volume, embracing for the most part exercises and selections for practise, wiU satisfy a distinct demand. While much of the subject matter has been evolved from my own teaching, I am deeply sensible of my indebtedness to others for valuable material, the sources of which it is not always easy to trace. It is recommended that each lesson be varied by exercises in breathing, voice culture, articulation, reading and gesture, rather than to confine it to a single section of the book. Grateful acknowledgment is made to various publishers and authors for generously permitting the use of selections. Grenville Kleiser.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

PREFACE Every man seeks power. It may be social, financial, or political power, physical, mental, or spiritual power, accord- ing to the ideal he sets before him. The highest and most enduring power is that which comes from the development of personal character. The purpose of this book is to give practical suggestions and exercises for building the body, the voice, and the vocabulary, for training the memory and imagination, and for the general development of power and personality in the speaker.

The most powerful and the most perfect expression of thought and feeling through the medium of oral language must be traced to the mastery of words. Nothing is better suited to lead speakers and readers of English into an easy control of this language than the command of the phrase that perfectly expresses the thought. Every speaker's aim is to be heard and understood.

For just such people Grenville Kleiser has written his book "Successful Methods of Public Speaking." The work deals with methods of correction for self-consciousness, with manners as a power in the making of men, with the value of a cultivated and agreeable voice, with confidence in society and business. A series of suggestions is given for an every-day cultivation of these qualities. "Embodies in a most encouraging and practical way all that is needed to make one who is naturally timid or fearful in speech and manner, self-poised, calm, dignified and confident of himself. It must be said that the method proposed is one of sober self-estimate and persistent effort along well considered lines of thought and action, designed to eradicate this uneasiness."--Times Dispatch, Richmond, Va. As you carefully study the successful methods of public speakers, as briefly set forth in this book, you will observe that there is nothing that can be substituted for personal sincerity. Unless you thoroughly believe in the message you wish to convey to others, you are not likely to impress them favorably. It was said of an eminent British orator, that when one heard him speak in public, one instinctively felt that there was something finer in the man than in anything he said. Therein lies the key to successful oratory. When the truth of your message is deeply engraved on your own mind; when your own heart has been touched as by a living flame; when your own character and personality testify to the innate sincerity and nobility of your life, then your speech will be truly eloquent, and men will respond to your fervent appeal.

The student is earnestly recommended to select one speech at a time, analyze it carefully, note its special features, practise it aloud and then proceed to another. In this way he will cover the principle forms of public speaking, and enable himself to apply his knowledge to any occasion. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.

Excerpt from Miscellaneous Studies in Prose: For the Exclusive Use of Grenville Kleiser's Mail Course Students It is generally recognized that clear and accurate thinking must precede clear and accurate expression. The selections presented here have a double value for the student. First, as examples of clear and forceful thinking; second, as specimens of good English. The student of English should be a general reader of the recognized stylists. These extracts should stimulate his interest in the larger works of such writers as Addison, Carlyle, Macaulay and Newman. Webster should be closely studied as a master of English style, with special regard to the needs of the public speaker. The chapter entitled "Speech and Thought," from Lotze's famous work, "Microcosmus," is particularly commended to the student's attention, and is reprinted here by special permission of the publishers.

Ninety-nine men in a hundred can argue to one who can argue and win. Yet upon this faculty more than any other depends the power of the lawyer, business man, preacher, politician, salesman, and teacher. The desire to win is characteristic of all men. "Almost to win a case," "Almost to close a sale," "Almost to make a convert," or "Almost to gain a vote," brings neither satisfaction nor success. In this book will be found definite suggestions for training the mind in accurate thinking and the power of clear and effective statement. It is the outcome of many years of experience in teaching men to "think on their feet." The aim throughout is practical, and the ultimate object a knowledge of successful argumentation. Gkenville Kleiser. New York City, October, 1910.

Excerpt from Great Speeches: And How to Make Them "Let us with all the affections of our heart," says Quintilian, "endeavor to attain the very majesty of eloquence, than which the immortal gods have not imparted anything better to mankind, and without which all would be mute in nature, and destitute of the splendor of a perfect glory and future remembrance. Let us likewise always make a continued progress toward perfection. By so doing we shall either reach the height, or at least shall see many beneath us." It will be profitable to every man, whether or not he aspires to become a great speaker, to develop his gifts to the highest proficiency of which they are capable. No other talent will win for him such honor, friendship and lasting fame. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
