  • What Is Rhetoric?
    SAGE Flex for Public Speaking What is Rhetoric? Brief: Rhetoric, which dates back to ancient times, is the art of speaking well and includes five key parts: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery. Learning Objective: Define rhetoric and identify its five parts. Key Terms: • High style: A formal style of speech delivery. • Invention: Finding or thinking up good speech content. • Low style: An informal style of speech delivery. • Rhetoric: The art of speaking well. Definitions of Rhetoric A public speaking class is essentially a rhetoric class. This can be confusing because today the word rhetoric is often used to indicate that a speaker is lying (“His record doesn’t match his rhetoric”) or that a speaker is filling air with meaningless talk (“Let’s move past all the rhetoric and get down to business”). However, the study of rhetoric has been an important part of Western Culture for more than 2000 years. Because public speaking is so critical to developing a healthy democracy, ancient Greeks and Romans spent a lot of time thinking and writing about what’s required to make a good public speech. The Acropolis of Athens The ancient Greek Aristotle defined rhetoric as “the faculty of discovering in any particular case the available means of persuasion.” Aristotle’s teacher, Plato, held that rhetoric is “the art of 1 SAGE Flex for Public Speaking winning the soul by discourse.” And, the Roman thinker Quintilian suggested simply that rhetoric is the art of speaking well. The Five Parts of Rhetoric Earlier thinkers established that the study and practice of rhetoric involves five main parts: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery.

  • The Music of Speech: Layering Musical Elements to Deliver Powerful Messages
    The Music of Speech: Layering Musical Elements to Deliver Powerful Messages Steven D. Cohen Doctoral Fellow University of Maryland omas E. Wei Aliated Assistant Professor of Public Policy Georgetown University Daniel C. DeFraia Master of Liberal Arts Candidate Harvard University Extension School Christopher J. Drury Master of Liberal Arts Candidate Harvard University Extension School Introduction Music and speech are both performance arts. While these two art forms may appear distinct, they share an important characteristic: the power to evoke visceral responses from listeners.1 Both music and speech depend upon a host of non-auditory factors, but it is the distinct mixture of sounds, both presented and perceived, that forms the primary basis for how these two art forms are understood. Scholars have debated the rhetorical impact of speech for decades. Irvine and Kirkpatrick challenged rhetorical theorists and critics to “develop a series of models that can account for the musical form in rhetorical exchange” since the current models were “of limited service in this task.”2 Since that time, scholars have published a diverse collection of articles that examine the interactions between rhetoric and music. While these articles are “diverse in perspective and theoretical grounding, [they] argue consistently that rhetorical analyses of music must consider both [the] lyrical message and musical score to be complete.”3 Although we agree with this conceptual framework, we do not view lyrics and score as two separate elements. Instead, we believe that the lyrical message is inherently musical—that there is a music of speech. When professional speakers deliver a line, they do not separate the words from the music.

  • How to Cure Your Dread of Public Speaking by Art Markman JULY 25, 2018
    PRESENTATIONS How to Cure Your Dread of Public Speaking by Art Markman JULY 25, 2018 ZACHARY SCOTT/GETTY IMAGES Public speaking is so stressful for so many people that it is routinely used as a stress manipulation in psychological studies. Tell undergrads they have 10 minutes to prepare a speech that will be evaluated by experts, and their levels of the stress hormone cortisol shoot through the roof. Yet success in many roles requires speaking in public. In addition to presenting in my classes, I typically give a talk per week in front of groups. People ask me if speaking gets me nervous. It does not. And I give a lot of credit to my fascination with stand-up comedy. While I’m not a comedian COPYRIGHT © 2018 HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL PUBLISHING CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 2 myself, I’ve been a fan of comedians and their process for a long time, and I think there are three lessons that anyone can learn from them about public speaking. It’s OK to Die Why exactly is public speaking so nerve-wracking? One main reason: It’s a social risk. If you give a bad talk (or trip on your way up to the stage), you worry that the stench of that talk will stick to you for the rest of your life. Your reputation will suffer, and that can have lasting consequences. Death is a frequent metaphor for comedians. When they have a great set, they killed. When they have a terrible set, they died on stage. Every comedian I have ever met or read about has died.
