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.

條理清晰和流暢感讓這本書就算有很多看不懂的詞也不會讓人覺得吃力。介紹瞭很多種英文的修辭手法,從中世紀文學到現代搖滾的歌詞裏找齣相似之處來解釋每種手法的用法和效果,很推薦對linguistic有興趣的讀者。

好看到完全停不下來!

讀起來很有趣,覺得好高大上,各種不會拼也不會念的來自希臘的修辭種類,讀完大概沒記住幾個,不過日後看其他文學作品的時候會更多注意一下修辭與語義的區分。

Even though you have nothing to say, at least you could say it well.
