Farnsworth's Classical English Rhetoric. Ward Farnsworth

Аннотация:

"I must refrain from shouting what a brilliant work this is (præteritio) . Farnsworth has written the book as he ought to have written it – and as only he could have written it (symploce) . Buy it and read it – buy it and read it (epimone) .”—Bryan A. Garner, author of [i]Garner's Modern English Usage Ward Farnsworth details the timeless principles of rhetoric from Ancient Greece to the present day, drawing on examples in the English language of consummate masters of prose, such as Lincoln, Churchill, Dickens, Melville, and Burke.
