The Basics of Rhetoric

Anyone involved in politics or public speaking for some time has probably encountered rhetoric and may have even attended seminars on the topic. It’s always helpful to revisit the fundamentals from time to time to keep your skills sharp and identify areas for improvement. I found a great resource on the German website Rhetorik-Online that offers clear and practical advice on rhetoric, including body language, voice control, and speech structure. Although the site is in German, you can easily use a browser translation extension to access the content in your preferred language. This makes it a valuable tool for anyone looking to refine their communication skills, regardless of language. Just be aware that the site does include some promotional material, but the core advice is very useful.
