1859 printing. The author is credited as a doctor of divinity and as Professor of Belles Lettres and Political Economy in the College of New Jersey. A printed but unpublished textbook for use by the author's own pupils. Based on classroom experience using Whately's Rhetoric. Aims to provide mental discipline through recitations. While it is meant to serve in place of Whately's text, it is meant to be used with Theremin's text. Part one covers rhetorical process, classification of arguments, and arrangement of arguments. Part two covers persuasion. Part three covers constructive rhetoric: discourse and style. Part four covers elocution. The Schultz Archive copy only includes the preface and TOC.
