Thereby, interdisciplinary cooperation with related fields such as linguistics , medicine , pedagogy , phonetics , psychology and sociology .

Rhetorical communication

Rhetorical communication emphasizes speaking together as a further development of the classic rhetoric term . Conversations and speeches are viewed as real or latent dialogues in which, ideally, something is discussed in a cooperative manner for which all partners are equally responsible. Individual goals in the context of rhetorical communication are understandable and clear formulation, effective presentation, fair argumentation and various skills in the field of conversation.

Speech formation and elementary processes of speaking

The aim of speech formation is an articulation that is appropriate to the respective situation and a pleasant-sounding, resilient voice that facilitates variable, effective and expressive speaking. Funding is z. B. a relaxing and inaudible breathing, speaking in the individually ideal speaking voice register, the expansion of the resonance spaces or a clearer, possibly even standard-conforming articulation.

“Everyone has different vocal requirements and it is important to find out how the individual can best use his potential. <...> Teachers who have less volume or melody scope can still be understood well if, for example, they compensate for this shortcoming with a more precise articulation. "(Zellerhoff, 2015, 39 f)

Speech art (aesthetic communication)

Aesthetic communication within speech training deals with the theory and practical implementation of speaking literary texts (poems, speeches, drama, etc.). The aim is to find an appropriate interpretation and presentation of the respective text.

The largest German-speaking training center for aesthetic communication is the Institute for Speech Art and Communication Education at the University of Music and Performing Arts Stuttgart under the direction of Michael Speer.

In addition, the art of speaking is also taught at the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg in the study of Speech Science as one of four sub-areas alongside rhetoric , phonetics and language and speech disorders. The art of speaking has a long tradition here. The students can put what they have learned into practice on the university's internal “speaking platform”.

In addition, the art of speaking can be taken as a compulsory elective in the eight-semester university training to become a "speech educator (Univ.)" At the University of Regensburg .

Speech training is an important subject at drama schools or music colleges (e.g. in training in opera singing). Breathing technique, voice training , articulation exercises as well as the presentation of texts (factual texts, prose , poetry, etc.) and free speaking are contents of speech training.
