This volume examines the persuasive ministry of the Reverend Dr.
Harry Emerson Fosdick, analyzing his delivery, style, invention,
and persuasion strategies. It is the first book to review Fosdick's
oratory and explain his process of creating persuasive, effective
sermons. It combines speech texts and an extensive bibliography
with a critical interpretation of his famous homilies and addresses
and it brings together in one concise text a definitive
alphabetical calendar of speeches, a chronology of sermons keyed to
his numerous books, and a detailed bibliography of works by and
about Fosdick. This fascinating study provides a valuable new
research tool in the study of rhetoric. From Puritan times to the
present, religious rhetoric has played an important role in the
political and social life of the United States and has occasionally
revealed the highest and lowest attainments of Americans. This
volume, the second in a series of book-length studies on great
American orators, examines the persuasive ministry of the Reverend
Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick and analyzes his delivery, style,
invention, and persuasive strategies. It is the first book to
review Fosdick's oratory and explain his process of creating
persuasive, effective sermons. It combines speech texts and an
extensive bibliography with a critical interpretation of his famous
homilies and addresses and it brings together in one concise text a
definitive alphabetical calendar of speeches, a chronology of
sermons keyed to his numerous books, and a detailed bibliography of
works by and about Fosdick. Of special note is the inclusion of the
famous Shall the Fundamentalists Win? sermon, with
never-before-published additions and subtractions, and the ad lib
additions and deletions from speech text and recordings of the
Handling Life's Second-Bests sermon. This fascinating study
provides a valuable new research tool in the study of rhetoric.
