Rhetoric: Self Study

It is necessary that I begin my study of Rhetoric after I complete VMA.

Some places to begin:

Shallow:

How to Win Friends and Influence People

Storyworthy: Engage, Teach, Persuade, and Change Your Life Through the Power of Storytelling

Sense of Style

On Writing Well

EB White and Shrunk one or whatever

Deep:

Emerson’s Self Study English Grammar

Franklin’s and Lincoln’s

I am sure there is so much more. Maybe Johnson’s on the English Language and stuff.

It is my duty and work to become a master of language. But A master user of language. My calling is not to be a polyglot or polyliterate as some. Those are subserviant goals for me being a great communicator.
