The Elements of Style, Principles of Composition - Use definite, specific, concrete language. - E. B. White and William I. Strunk

This quote a été ajouté par kaikaikaikai
If those who studied the art of writing are in accord on any one point, it is this: the surest way to arouse and hold the reader's attention is by being specific, definite, and concrete. The greatest writers - Homer, Dante, Shakespeare - are effective largely because they deal in particulars and report the details that matter. Their words call up pictures.
