Eloquence in an Electronic Age: The Transformation of Political Speechmaking Paperback - 1990
by Kathleen Hall Jamieson
First line
The early efforts of the classical world's greatest orator were derided for their "strange and uncouth style, which was cumbered with long sentences and tortured with formal arguments to a most harsh and disagreeable excess."
From the rear cover
In a book that blends anecdote with analysis, Kathleen Hall Jamieson-author of the award -winning Packaging the Presidency-offers a perceptive and often disturbing account of the transformation of political speechmaking. Ranging from the classical orations of Cicero to the speeches of modern presidents from Truman to Reagan and of political players from Daniel Webster to Mario Cuomo, this lively, well-documented volume contains a wealth of insight into public speaking, contemporary characteristics of eloquence, and the future of political discourse in America.
