Excerpt from Dialects for Oral Interpretation: Selections and Discussion The inclusion of an extensive bibliography, found at the end of the book, should prove of great assistance to teachers and others in locating selections desired. For much of the work of this bibliography, I am indebted to Frances Ellen Tucker of Dodgeville, Wis, High School, Department of Speech. Having felt the need of some such compilation as this present one through a long period of years, it is offered in the hope that it will prove helpful to a large number who have been handicapped in the use of Dialect mainly because it has been so hard to find.

Emerging in the 1850s, elocutionists recited poetry or drama with music to create a new type of performance. The genre--dominated by women--achieved remarkable popularity. Yet the elocutionists and their art fell into total obscurity during the twentieth century. Marian Wilson Kimber restores elocution with music to its rightful place in performance history. Gazing through the lenses of gender and genre, Wilson Kimber argues that these female artists transgressed the previous boundaries between private and public domains. Their performances advocated for female agency while also contributing to a new social construction of gender. Elocutionists, proud purveyors of wholesome entertainment, pointedly contrasted their "acceptable" feminine attributes against those of morally suspect actresses. As Wilson Kimber shows, their influence far outlived their heyday. Women, the primary composers of melodramatic compositions, did nothing less than create a tradition that helped shape the history of American music.
