Public Speech

In diesem Buch lernen Sie die Methoden jahrhundertealter Rhetorik mit neuesten Erkenntnissen aus der heutigen Wissenschaft zu verknüpfen. Dazu gehört, dass Sie die Sprache Ihres Körpers und Ihre Stimme bewusst einsetzen und einen Vortrag so gestalten, dass Sie Ihre Zuhörer von Ihrem Thema begeistern. Wichtig ist neben dem, was Sie sagen, vor allem das WIE Sie etwas sagen.

Following World War II, through the 1990s, there existed a sense of mutual distrust between the United States and the Soviet Union. The hostile environment included American fears of a Russian plan to control the world and the USSR's resentment over US intervention in foreign countries. The Cold War includes such speeches as JFK's address to the nation on the arms buildup in Cuba and commending West Berliners on their dedication to democracy.

In this time of tumult, when Britain is wrestling with the question of what sort of nation it wishes to be, its politics is stuck. Power is hoarded by a distant and unresponsive centre, and our two largest political parties have both been captured by those on their outer edges. Too many of us have been left politically homeless. In Start Again, Philip Collins, Times journalist and until recently a lifelong Labour voter, offers a road map to a different political destination.
