We are Clavis Aurea: a dynamic team constantly looking for ways to make the academic publishing industry grow and to promote groundbreaking academic publications to scholars, students and enthusiasts globally. Based in the renowned publishing city of Leiden, we eat, sleep and breathe publishing! Matteo Barbato's The Ideology of Democratic Athens: Institutions, Orators and the Mythical Past (Edinburgh University Press, 2020) investigates the construction of democratic ideology in Classical Athens through a study of the social memory of Athens' mythical past. The debate on Athenian democratic ideology has long been polarised around two extremes. Matteo Barbato addresses this dichotomy by providing a unitary approach to Athenian democratic ideology. Analysing four different myths from the perspective of the New Institutionalism, he demonstrates that Athenian democratic ideology was a fluid set of ideas, values and beliefs shared by the Athenians as a result of a constant ideological practice influenced by the institutions of the democracy. He shows that this process entailed the active participation of both the masses and the elite and enabled the Athenians to produce multiple and compatible ideas about their community and its mythical past.

Now there is a podcast I had not thought to find in these wastes! Bathe with us in the muck as we're learning from Matsuno why Orators get guns, possessing powerful evidence of the church's misdeeds, staying two steps ahead, acting as expected, dropping spores in the wind, respecting the constitution, only understanding transactional relationships, excusing Orlandeau from villainous plotting, picking the same wall, resisting the poison, double-gripping the stabby knife, hacking blood up all over ourselves, and merging the templars with the perverts. It was 27 years ago and I don't remember the details. 00:00 Season 7 Winner | 01:43 Intro | 03:24 Paging Matsuno | 04:53 Outlying Church | 13:25 Beddha Sandwaste | 26:16 Conspirators Conspiring | 37:48 Fort Besselat | 40:16 Dycedarg Dices Larg | 50:31 Real Net | 53:21 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Twitter: @retroamnesiapod YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Yes, it's Meeplefest time once again, and the roundtable of luminaries is topped off with three designers: Matt Leacock, fresh from his KedJ win for Daybreak/eMission where he went up against HIMSELF with Ticket to Ride Legacy: Legends of the West and known for such titles as Pandemic and Forbidden Island Tom Lehmann, known for the classic Race for the Galaxy, and with new titles such as Winter Court and Chu Han and Joe Huber, lover of trick takers and designer of such titles as Caravan, Blue Skies, and Burger Joint. We spend some time talking about Matt's win, as well as design choices & the creative spark. And here's that Auden quote which Tom sent to me after the podcast: In his preface to The Collected Poetry of W. H. Auden (1945) he wrote: In the eyes of every author, I fancy, his past work falls into four classes. First, the pure rubbish which he regrets ever having conceived; second–for him the most painful– the good ideas which his incompetence or impatience prevented from coming to much (The Orators seems to me such a case of the fair notion fatally injured); third, the pieces he had nothing against except their lack of importance; these must inevitably form the bulk of any collection since, were he to limit it to the fourth class alone, to those poems for which he is honestly grateful, his volume would be too depressingly slim.
Since ancient Greek civilization, we have sought to identify what makes some people more effective and persuasive orators than others. Studies have suggested that this might be related to rhythmic patterns in certain speech, but evidence is limited. Dr. Ceccherini-Nelli of the University of Alberta conducted a study with his colleagues to explore this. They looked at the patterns present in political speeches and conducted experiments to determine their effects.
In May 2023, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) commemorated its 150th anniversary. The federal police force – which originally started out as the North-West Mounted Police – is almost as old as the Dominion of Canada itself.

It also takes us back to the scene of one of the RCMP's largest manhunts – the search for fugitive Albert Johnson, also known as “The Mad Trapper.” Our guests on this episode are Sam Karikas, CEO of the RCMP Heritage Centre, and Jean Teillet, a recently retired Métis lawyer, author, and lecturer, who is also the great-grand niece of Louis Riel.

This speech spotlight episode features Lizzy Cozzens, a four-year Rock Springs Tiger, team leader, and talented orator who delivered many strong platform speeches back in her competition days. Lizzy shared one her favorite oratories - a powerful speech entitled "Deadly Dancing."A quick word about how to use these speech spotlight episodes. First, enjoy a high quality, very well done speech. The speech spotlight is another opportunity for students to share their unique and powerful voice to an audience in a new audio format. So, sit back and enjoy some brilliance from our speech and debate community. Second, consider how you might use this speech as a model for students who are looking to write and perform their own original oratories. Third, these speeches could be excellent learning tools for coaches and competitors. Actively reflecting on what makes a speech powerful, effective, or even flawed can help coaches and competitors add more tools and ideas to their own speaking toolboxes.Be on the lookout for one more upcoming episode featuring an interview with Lizzy. I also have some really helpful resources that Lizzy put together for novice Orators that she has kindly shared out and adapted for others to use. I'll be posting these resources as articles on the website soon.If you have any ideas or requests for topics to explore on the One Clap Podcast, shoot Lyle an email at lylewiley@gmail.com or check out our blog and social media here:One Clap Website: www.oneclapspeechanddebate.comFacebook: @oneclappodcastInstagram: @one_clap_podcastThe One Clap December Newsletter: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1naSnRR8eHDRtROvjJuDsc5yKubM_DHxLeDQplMVwXw8/editSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/oneclapspeechanddebate)

ST. JOHN CHRYSOSTOM l PATRON SAINTS OF EDUCATION, EPILEPSY, LECTURERS, ORATORS AND PREACHERS FEAST DAY: SEPTEMBER 13 Today's saint is a fourth century ascetic, prophet-pastor, theologian, exegete and priest, born in Antioch, Syria in the year 344. His exemplary virtues are piety, courage, patience, humility and fortitude. His father, a high-ranking military officer, died when he was a boy and his widowed mother, a model of virtue, raised him up as a good Christian. He studied law and other courses with pagan rhetorics, but soon abandoned his agnostic studies to study theology. He went to a secluded place, started to live like a hermit with little food, rest and sleep. His severe mortification caused his kidneys to be damaged and he got very ill. He went back to Antioch and became an ordained Deacon. In 386, he was ordained a priest. As a priest, St. John was a good preacher and his sermons were well accepted. His moral teachings were appreciated and followed. He was not only concerned of the spiritual wellbeing of his people but even of their material welfare. He had many sermons on the abuse of wealth /and exhorted the people to share what they have with the needy. His forceful words were accompanied by humor which evoked laughter from his audience. After 12 years as a priest, he was called to Constantinople to become its archbishop. He was against the idea, but, much against his will, he was literally escorted by soldiers to bring him to Constantinople. As pastor, St. John continued preaching about the Scriptures and good moral conduct. His teachings on the abuse of wealth and power /angered some powerful and influential people. Headed by Eudoxia, wife of Emperor Arcadius, and an unscrupulous bishop of Alexandria, they invented many frivolous and false charges against him. They convened a pseudo-synod to convict him. Since he refused to appear before the synod, the Emperor exiled him to Caucasus, Armenia and was kept in confinement. He appealed to Pope Innocent I, who tried to help him but his enemies were more powerful than the pope. While in exile, St. John continued to write his sermons and correspondence with his followers. Not contented with what they did, his enemies vanished him again to a more remote place: an eastern part of the Black Sea, but on his journey on September 14, 407, he died. Soon after his death, he was immediately regarded as a saint. Thirty-one years later, his relics were brought to Constantinople and were solemnly received by the archbishop and the Emperor. St. John was known for defending the truth of the Incarnation of Christ, and the doctrine of the Trinity. He attacked Arianism, a heresy which says that Jesus is not equal with the Father. He wrote exegetical homilies from the Old and New Testaments, liturgy, and about morality. St. John was surnamed "Chrysostom" which means "Golden Mouthed” because of his exemplary sermons. "Nothing can ruin our virtue or destroy our soul that is not self-inflicted” (St. John C.). When we give in to temptation, it is like holding the devil's hand in order to strike us, which is similar to harming our own self. Do I avoid occasions of sin or deliberately approach them?

Hey, have you subscribed to the bookmark newsletter? A fortnightly email with book reviews and ideas of what you should be reading next. Click here to subscribe. About the author By some accounts, Roy Peter Clark is America's writing coach, devoted to creating a nation of writers. A PhD in medieval literature, he is widely considered the most influential writing teacher in the rough-and-tumble world of newspaper journalism. With a deep background in traditional media, Clark has illuminated the discussion of writing on the internet. He has gained fame by teaching writing to children and has nurtured Pulitzer Prize-winning authors. He is a teacher who writes and a writer who teaches. For more than three decades, Clark has taught writing at the Poynter Institute, a school for journalists in St. Petersburg, Florida, considered among the most prominent such teaching institutions in the world. Clark has authored or edited nineteen books about writing, reading, language, and journalism. Humorist Dave Barry has said of him: “Roy Peter Clark knows more about writing than anybody I know who is not currently dead.” He plays keyboard in a rock band. He lives with his family in St. Petersburg, Florida, where he has become famously fond of pelicans. Source: https://roypeterclark.com/#about About the book With writers of the digital age in mind, this book looks back on the enduring power of short writing from the beginning of written texts. Looking at both the craft and purposes of short writing — the how and the why — I offer hundreds of examples of the best short writing, from sonnets, proverbs, aphorisms, marginalia, and song lyrics to blog posts, text messages, and tweets. Source: https://roypeterclark.com/books2/#row2 Big idea #1 — Write shortIf you want to write long, begin with writing short. There's a whole section at the start of the book about how writing short is not necessarily a means to an end in itself. It can actually be a means to other types of writing. It includes a quote from The Notebook author, Umberto Eco that says “it's everyday writing that inspires the most committed works, not the other way round”. So even if you have ambitions to write a tome, or really long particular type of text, that doesn't mean that the lessons from this particular type of short writing are irrelevant to you. In fact, a lot of the time it's that type of writing that will lead to longer, more committed work. In the book, Roy talks a lot about keeping a daybook dedicated to short writing and collecting examples of great short writing. Finding clever writing on the back of your shampoo or cereal. He encourages us to practice writing interesting sentences, to play with haiku, play with Tweets, and find little phrases that punctuate a short sentence. The book is full of these types of practical activities and prompts that you can pick and choose from next time you're writing an article, social media post, email, or a speech. The lessons in this book that are applicable to all sorts of writing, and not just writing that is going to stay as writing, but writing that is going to become speech or another type of communication. Most of these activities are things that you wouldn't necessarily think of doing by yourself, but are the things that are going to stretch your brain to think a little bit cleverly, and more laterally about your writing and the message you're trying to get across. Big idea #2 — Subtract, subtract, subtract. Roy talks about applying a rule of 75%, or trying to deliver your work in three quarters of the expected length. He asks you to think about how you feel when someone speaks for just 10 minutes, rather than 20 minutes. You are probably incredibly grateful, particularly if you're sat in an uncomfortable conference room in an uncomfortable chair. So he invites you to give that gift to your audience too. You can surprise, and delight, with brevity. The book itself is a beautiful example of writing short. The chapters are short and it feels like the words in there are all so intentional. By surprising and delighting with brevity, you can make every word feel like it's meant to be there. There's no flabbiness to it. Roy talks about the difference between two types of writers; The putter-inners; put everything in and revise and take things out. They'll start with 500 words and they're edited back to 300. The taker-outers; take it all out as they're writing and then add back when they think that things need a little bit extra. They might write 200 words, but take it up to 300 words. There should be an editing process, and in the editing process shouldn't happen simultaneous to the writing process. Subtraction is not a case of relentless slash and burn, but we do need to consider what doesn't serve the purpose of the statement, and what needs more space to stand out a little bit more. Professor William Strunk, Jr. is evangelical about ‘omitting needless words'. But we need to be conscious of ‘at what cost'. There comes a point where we take so much out, that we've lost a little bit of meaning or impact. Or as E B White said, ‘will leave you with nothing more to say, but time to fill'. There is a fine balance, and there's no exact rule, but what it should do is encourage you to pause, stop, and think about where does that line of ‘too much / not enough' sits with your copy that you are writing. Big idea #3 — Think like a poet and an advertiser Poetry comes up regularly in the book, and offers a structure for playing with short writing. The patterns of three, the rhyming couplets and specific forms like the limerick or the haiku force an efficient use of words. Similar to poetry, advertisers have mastered the art of the punchiness. Advertisers have been forced into this by minimal space, which comes at a premium and needing to appeal to the simpler parts of our brains, they reduce things into the three word slogan or the tagline. I'm lovin' it The real thing Breakfast of champions You can use this by thinking about your own structure, looking at where you can add a compelling, short, first sentence and then follow it up with a similarly short and second sentence as an invitation to keep on reading. This is another element of the book that I really enjoyed, looking at all these different types of writing. Roy shares examples from the greater orators in history, the ones who have written speeches which have gone down in history the ones where key statements, made up of carefully chosen words, are repeated for generations. Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill. But then at the other end of the spectrum, you've got junky types of advertising slogans. Both memorable, and both using the same concepts, patterns and lessons. Let's connect LinkedIn Instagram See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite the fact that public speaking remains an important and relevant skill in our modern age -- you never know when you'll need to give a toast at a wedding, pitch an idea at work, or champion a proposal at a city council meeting -- most of us get very little instruction these days in how to do it effectively. Fortunately, my guest says, we can look to the great orators of the past to get the public speaking education we never received. His name is John Hale, and he's professor of archeology as well the lecturer of The Great Courses course Art of Public Speaking: Lessons from the Greatest Speeches in History. Today on the show, John shares what we can learn about the physicality of public speaking from Demontheses of Athens, the importance of empathetic body language from Patrick Henry, the effective use of humor from Will Rogers, the power of three from the apostle Paul, and the potency of brevity and well-executed organization from Abraham Lincoln.

Here’s today’s tip: “What orators lack in depth, they make up for in length.” – Charles-Louis de Secondat It’s hard to be concise with our words. It takes work. If you give me an hour to talk and a topic, I’ll have no problem filling the time and I probably won’t need to spend more […] The post “What orators lack in depth, they make up for in length.” – Charles-Louis de Secondat appeared first on My Campaign Coach.
Welcome to Mere Rhetoric, the podcast for beginners and insiders about the ideas, people and movements who have shaped rhetorical history. I’m Mary Hedengren and I’d like you to think a little about the types of writing you’ve done in the past, oh, let us say, year. If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably written breezy email, stern syllabi, obscure academic texts and pun-based posts on Reddit that didn’t get nearly the number of upvotes as they deserve. Now what if a random, oh, say 12% of what you wrote was preserved and no one who knew you was around to testify you wrote it all? What would people think about your writing style? About your history? Would they even know you who were you? This is precisely the mystery behind today’s Other Eight Attic Orator, Antiphon of Rhamnus. Like many of us, Antiphon may have written a variety of texts. He was a logographer, one of those professional legal speechwriters, so he probably wrote dozens of defenses for the rich and powerful in his social circle. He also attracted followers and students, so he wrote examples for them, imaginary legal cases with evenly balanced sides and arguments in weighted antithesis. He may have even written a treatise On Rhetoric, but we don’t have it, because, remember? Most of your writings--gone. We only have rumor of Antiphon’s rhetoric text. He also maybe wrote some abstract sophistic texts, On Truth and On Concord, which sure don’t sound like the pragmatic legal texts we know were his. Antiphon also lived in the real world, which, during this stormy period of Athenian politics, included a lot a hairy situations where Antiphon would have to rhetoric for his life. All of this makes it hard to sort out what Antiphon really wrote and what, if any, style you would attribute to him--is he a cut-and-dry type-A arranger like his sample cases sound or did he play fast and loose with the traditional four parts of a speech like his court cases? He looks like both. Take those traditional four parts of a speech--prologue, narrative, proof or argument and epilogue, or in other words, set the stage, tell the story, supply the evidence, and sum it all up. In one speech Antiphon goes on and on in the narrative. Why? Because he’s writing a speech for the prosecution and so it’s his job to plaint what happened. In this case, it’s about a step-mother poisoning a father, so it’s a very lurid narrative, too. The step-mother tricks a family’s friend’s mistress into thinking a poison was a love potion. “When they had finished dinner, ...they naturally began pouring libations...But while Philoneus’ mistress was pouring the libations...she was pouring in the drug. And she thought she would be clever and put more into Philoneus’ cup, on the theory that if she gave him more, he would love her more. She didn’t realize she had been deceived by my stepmother until the evil was already done.... When the men had poured out the libations, each took hold of his own murderer and drank it down--his last drink” (19-21). I mean--wow! That is shocking stuff. Of course the jury wants to hear more of it. The defense’s excuses of why she did it is almost irrelevant when there’s such a vivid narration. Even though Antiphon says he will “try to relate the rest of the story about giving the drug as briefly as possible,” (13) he knows that the story is the most convincing part and aside from this allegation...there’s not really a lot of evidence. In fact, not only is the evidence sparse, but the narrative is almost entirely fabricated. How could the plaintiff or Antiphon know what the cloistered women said to each other behind closed doors? How could he know what they were thinking when they poured the drinks? But with such a robust narration section, the argument looks compelling. This kind of playing with the order is seen in extreme cases where he even blends togethers evidence and narration. But this is far from the case of his orderly Tetralogies. These school texts are so orderly that you might even call them...textbook cases. See what I did there? The 1st Tetralogy considers a man and his servent killed in the middle of the night in the street. Were they killed by a common criminal seeking valuable cloaks or by some violent drunk...or was it personal this time? The argument here iis very argumenty, and quite different from “Against the Step-mother”: “We know the whole city is polluted by the killer until he is prosecuted and that if we prosecute the wrong man, we will be guilty of impiety, and punishment for any mistake [the jury] makes will fall on us… no one who went so far as to risk his life would abandon the gain he had securely in hand”, and yet the victims were still in possession of their property when they were found (4)...and the whole thing goes on like that. Counter supposition and response. It’s chock full of evidence and the narration takes back seat, as is more typical. These cases sound very different, even though the cases all involve murder--Antiphon in both the cases he took and the cases his taught seemed drawn to the bloody side of Athenian life. The extant works of Antiphon are littered with the corpses of poisoned, drowned and javelined Athenians. But just as each legal case is different, the arguments needed to defend or prosecute are also different. So what do we make of On Truth and On Concord and, for cryin’ out loud, the Interpretation of Dreams? The lawyer-y logographer Antiphon was writing about summary arrest and probablitities, but what about the fragments of the so-called sophistic works? Were these written by “our” Antiphon or some other Antiphon, sometimes named Antiphon the Sophist? What about the Antiphon who squared the circle? It’s difficult to say who is who. Because there were only like, a dozen names in the ancient Greek cities, there were other Antiphons about. It could be that these little fragments are Antiphon’s weekend work, when he wasn’t wading through gutters of blood. But, as Michael Gagarin points out, you write different ways in different circumstances for different audiences (“Introduction” 6). A real court case isn’t the same as a textbook example for students is not the same as a purely theoretical exploration. Yet with so much missing, it’s hard to say we know Antiphon’s full contributions. The sad irony is that this great forensic logographer who has been enshrined as one of the Great Attic Orators wasn’t able to win the most important court case of his life--the course case for his life. Although he gave what was later called “the greatest [speech] ever made by a man on trial for his life” he was prosecuted for his role in the coup of the council of 400. Like with much of Antiphon’s work, we hear more about his trial’s speech than we are actually able to read. Aristotle’s Eudemanian Ethics includes expert praise for it as well as the allusion that many others commonly appreciated it. It didn’t seem to stem the rage of the Council, though. He was prnounced guilty and not only was treason a capital offense, but his descendants would even be stripped of their inheritance and their citizenship. Most people thus charged slipped out the back way or threw others under the bus, or did both--see our episdoe on Andocides. But instead of fleeing into exile, Antiphon stayed in Athens and was executed. It’s likely that after his execution his works weren’t exactly broadly disseminated. It wasn’t until 1907 that the fragments of Antiphon’s defense on the revolution were discovered...badly mutilated papyrus from the 2nd century AD. Kind of a downer ending, so I’m going to end with a quote from someone who knew him, Thucydides , who was Antiphon’s student. “Antiphon, one of the best men of his day in Athens; who, with a head to contrive measures and a tongue to recommend them, did not willingly come forward in the assembly or upon any public scene, being ill-looked upon by the multitude owing to his reputation for cleverness; and who yet was the one man best able to aid in the courts, or before the assembly, the suitors who required his opinion.”

It's not so much about imagery or language as it is about longing for that human connection. It's imagining yourself into another life in order to connect with it and be less isolated. And that is the case in my poetry as well - imagination is a way of reaching other people. — Polly Clark Sean Robinson met with Polly Clark at Toppings bookshop, after her appearance at the School of Night, where she read from her novel Larchfield. They discussed the difference between writing a novel and writing a poem, as well as the roles of imagination and location in the writing process. Polly also read her poem 'Heaven' (at 14m55s). Polly Clark was born in Toronto and lives in Helensburgh on Scotland’s west coast, close to where W.H. Auden wrote The Orators. She is Literature Programme Producer for Cove Park, Scotland’s International Artist Residency Centre, and the author of three poetry collections. She won the MsLexia Prize for Larchfield, the Eric Gregory Award, and has been shortlisted for the TS Eliot Prize. Larchfield will be published by Quercus under their riverrun imprint March 2017. Her pamphlet A Handbook for the Afterlife was shortlisted in the 2016 Michael Marks Awards and a volume of New and Selected Poems, Afterlife, is due in 2018. Sean Robinson is studying for a masters in poetry writing at St. Andrews under Don Paterson. An estwhile policy wonk, he graduated in 2013 from Oxford with a bachelors in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and worked for some time with the Civil Service, until deciding to chuck it all in to do something useful, and write poems. He is from London. Lessons from the School of Night are an irregular series of video or audio interviews and tips from poets and writers who visit St Andrews. The School of Night – inspired by the group which included Christopher Marlowe and Sir Walter Raleigh – is Topping & Company Booksellers' Year-Round Poetry Festival in St Andrews. Curated with the help of Don Paterson and playing host to poets as varied as Paul Muldoon and Lorraine Mariner, Simon Armitage and Annie Freud, it is anchored to a regular fixture on the last Tuesday of the month. The School of Night offers the chance to explore and discuss the work of some of the best poets on the contemporary scene.
