Lectures Concerning Oratory is a book written by John Lawson and first published in 1759. The book is a collection of lectures that were given by Lawson during his time as a professor of rhetoric and belles-lettres at the University of Glasgow. The lectures cover a wide range of topics related to oratory, including the principles of rhetoric, the art of persuasion, the use of language and style, and the importance of delivery and gesture. Throughout the book, Lawson draws on examples from classical literature and history to illustrate his points and provide practical advice for aspiring orators. He also discusses the role of oratory in society and politics, and the ethical responsibilities of the orator. Lectures Concerning Oratory is considered a seminal work in the field of rhetoric and has been influential in shaping the study of public speaking and communication. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of persuasion and the history of rhetoric.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
