Public Speaking
‘Giving a Speech’ Occasions: Business presentation,
graduation speaker, after-dinner, eulogy (‘impromptu’ for tomorrow)
‘Capital S’ Speech: podium, stage, large audience
Note: podium vs. lectern Note: accent vs. dialect Public Speaking: ‘an event when a group of
people agree that one person, the speaker, will direct the event.’

Scholarly interpretation
Scholars of preliterate societies remind us that speech is the most fundamental tool of social organization.
Walter Ong special feature of oral cultures: when the spoken word was the only form of preserving culture, speech had to be memorable.
Marshall MacLuhan and other media scholars coined the term ‘secondary orality’ to describe the rekindling of a preference for intense, visceral, immediate kinds of communication.

Aristotle
Three genres of speaking Forensic (like a courtroom) Deliberative (legislature) Epideictic / ceremonial (praise / blame)
Three categories of persuasive appeals Logos -- most fundamental: logic and intellectual
substance Pathos -- motivational appeals Ethos -- credibility of the speaker
Aristotle said a speaker’s character is the most important means of persuasion he possesses.

Public Speaking is Meaning Centered
Many other factors and intellectual evaluations, but ultimately...
Meaning Centered Meaning is social Meaning is contextual Meaning is negotiated in discouse

is when you’re first learning itThere are simple formulas for public
speakingPublic speaking is mostly about
performance
