Summary "Elementary Composition" by Dorothy Canfield Fisher and George R. Carpenter is an educational guide written in the early 20th century. This work aims to enhance the writing skills of students, particularly those in the seventh and eighth grades, by providing a structured approach to the principles of composition. The book covers various elements of writing, including grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure, and the development of paragraphs and whole compositions. The beginning of "Elementary Composition" introduces the importance of writing as a means of expression. It stresses that every student has likely engaged in various forms of writing, such as letters and narratives, prior to formally studying composition. The authors propose that composition is the art of putting together thoughts in a clear and coherent manner, distinct from grammar, which focuses more on the structure of sentences rather than their meaning. Through the initial section, readers are encouraged to explore their ability to express ideas effectively and to recognize the importance of practice and imitation in improving their writing skills.
