Pietists

Eloquence
Eloquence (from French ''eloquence'' from Latin ''eloquentia'') is fluent, elegant, persuasive, and forceful speech, persuading an audience. Eloquence is both a natural talent and improved by knowledge of language, study of a specific subject to be addressed, philosophy, rationale and ability to form a persuasive set of tenets within a presentation. "True eloquence," Oliver Goldsmith says, "Does not consist ... in saying great things in a sublime style, but in a simple style; for there is, properly speaking, no such thing as a sublime style, the sublimity lies only in the things; and when they are not so, the language may be turgid, affected, metaphorical, but not affecting." Eloquence in antiquity The word eloquence itself derives from the Latin roots: ''ē'' (a shortened form of the preposition ''ex''), meaning "out (of)", and ''loqui'', a deponent verb meaning "to speak". Thus, eloquence is to speak fluently and understand and master language so as to employ a graceful ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
