Excerpt from book: Different kinds of Matter-The mutter of discourse is of different kinds. In communicating knowledge, we may have an object to describe, an event to narrate, a general notion to explain, or a proposition to prove. Description, Narration, Exposition, and Argumentation are therefore the elements, or elementary forms, of all discourse. They must be considered separately, and the general principles be applied to each. Different kinds of Discourse-These elements are combined in different ways and modified according to the purpose of the writer. Thus arise distinct kinds or classes of discourse; as, didactic, historical, oratorical; each of which, while it has much in common with the others, has its distinctive features and special laws. It is part of the office of Rhetoric to classify the leading forms of prose, and to exhibit their characteristic marks. This Work distributed into Four Parts-This treatise is distributed into four parts. The first part treats of the processes conversant about the matter of a discourse; the second, of the principles of style; the third, of the elementary forms of a discourse; the fourth, of the principal forms of prose. PART I. THE PROCESSES CONVERSANT ABOUT THE MATTER OF A DISCOURSE. PRELIMINARY. 10. What are the processes conversant about the matter of a Discourse?
