In presenting Winston Churchill with Honorary U.S. Citizenship in 1963, President Kennedy declared, “in the dark days and darker nights when England stood alone, he mobilized the English language and sent it into battle.” Churchill rejected praise for his speeches, declaring, “I am not an orator. I am not a good speaker. I only learned to speak somehow or other with exceptional difficulty and enormous practice.” We will study Churchill’s rhetoric by focusing on his stirring wartime speeches in 1940 and 1941.
