Mark Twain and the Art of the Tall Tale is a study of a peculiar American comic strategy and its role in Mark Twain's fiction. Focusing on the writer's experiments with narrative structure, Wonham describes how Twain manipulated conventional approaches to reading and writing by engaging his audience in a series of rhetorical games--the rules of which he adapted from the conventions of tall tale in American oral and written traditions.
The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs: How to Be Insanely Great in Front of Any Audience
Apple CEO Steve Jobs’s wildly popular presentations have set a new global gold standard—and now this step-by-step guide shows you exactly how to use his crowd-pleasing techniques in your own presentations. The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs is as close as you’ll ever get to having the master presenter himself speak directly in your ear.
Many speakers make presentations that are poorly designed, poorly delivered, and poorly received. There are those few, however, that are so masterful they move an audience to see the world differently and inspire them to achieve more than they ever thought possible. The Seven Strategies of Master Presenters will help anyone develop the presentation strategies and skills exemplified by the Master Presenters interviewed in this book, whether for a one-on-one presentation, a sales call, a talk to a small group, or a speech to an audience of a thousand or more.
The writers studied in this supplement are mostly contemporary, although a few have roots in the early twentieth century. David Budbill, W. S. Di Piero, Mark Halliday, Ted Kooser, Molly Peacock, and Bruce Weigl are mainly poets by trade, though most of them have also worked in other areas. While each of the writers discussed in this supplement has already found an audience—a large one in the case of Robert B. Parker—few of them have yet to receive the kind of sustained attention they deserve, although each has been reviewed at length in periodicals.
