In an age unhealthily obsessed with substance, this is a book on the importance of pure style. From classic poetry to pop lyrics and from the King James Bible to advertising slogans, Mark Forsyth explains the secrets that make a phrase - such as 'Tiger, Tiger, burning bright', or 'To be or not to be' - memorable. In his inimitably entertaining and witty style he takes apart famous lines and shows how you too can write like Shakespeare or Oscar Wilde. Whether you're aiming for literary immortality or just an unforgettable one-liner, The Elements of Eloquence proves that you don't need to have anything to say - you simply need to say it well.

现代通俗版的Aristotle Poetic+ Rhetoric + Topics.
评分A vindication against the poor movement of plain English, this book intorduces the elements of classical rhetoric since the Antiquity (except the chapter on 'The Fourteenth Rule'), demonstrating with examples from English literature, both proses and verses, in the past half a millenium, i.e. early modern and modern English. It reads a funny (and...
评分文盲表示原来写作还有这么多花样啊... 每种都举了几百年前到现在的例子.
评分读起来很有趣，觉得好高大上，各种不会拼也不会念的来自希腊的修辞种类，读完大概没记住几个，不过日后看其他文学作品的时候会更多注意一下修辞与语义的区分。
