Quote: "... Sheridan described elocution as 'the just and graceful management of the voice, countenance, and gesture in speaking.' Included within the sphere of elocution were both oratory and oral reading." (193)
Question: The idea that there is a standard or expected rhetoric of elocution is understandable, however, it is broken on a daily basis. Do you think our society is transitioning away from contemporary elocution ideology? Or how have we remixed away or reinforced traditional elocution?
