Excerpt from On Teaching English: With Detailed Examples, and an Enquiry Into the Definition of Poetry
Second, a brief sketch of the Rhetorical method, followed by a series of Select Lessons on the leading Qualities of Style - Intellectual and Emotional. These are intended to be, as far as possible, intelligible by themselves but they also serve as overflow examples to the course of Rhetoric in the expanded text-book.
Third, an enquiry into the Definition of 'poetry, being one added to the many attempts to deal with this in tractable question. The discussion is not meant to remain isolated, but to fall in with the treatment of rhetorical principles, both in theory and in practice.
