How to Add Ten Years to your Life and to Double Its Satisfactions
Curry, S. S. (Samuel Silas)
Hygiene; Physical education and training
Through the use of your text-book on vocal expression, I have had
the past term much better results and more manifest interest on the
subject than ever before.--A. H. Merrill, A.M., late Professor of
Elocution, Vanderbilt University.
The subject is handled in a new and original manner, and cannot
fail to revolutionize the old elocutionary ideas.--Mail and Empire,
Toronto.
It is capital, good sense, and real instruction.--W. E. Huntington,
LL.D., Ex-President of Boston University.
Imagination and Dramatic Instinct. Function of the imagination and
assimilation in the vocal interpretation of literature and speaking. By
S. S. Curry, Litt.D. $1.50; to teachers, $1.20, postpaid.
Dr. Curry well calls the attention of speakers to the processes of
thinking in the modulation of the voice. Every one will be
benefited by reading his volumes.... Too much stress can hardly be
laid on the author's ground principle, that where a method aims to
regulate the modulation of the voice by rules, then inconsistencies
and lack of organic coherence begin to take the place of that sense
of life which lies at the heart of every true product of art. On
the contrary, where vocal expression is studied as a manifestation
of the processes of thinking, there results the truer energy of the
student's powers and the more natural unity of the complex elements
of his expression.--Dr. Lyman Abbott, in The Outlook.
