Art of oratory is the process of developing persuasive arguments. It encompasses the study of rhetoric, composition, and public speaking. Famous orators such as Benjamin Franklin, Winston Churchill, MLK Jr., and Ronald Reagan have greatly contributed to the field of oratory.

There are three fundamental tasks of oratory: to persuade, to inform, and to entertain. The first task is the most important, as it is the task of oratory to move an audience to change its mind. To do this, orators must employ techniques such as logical reasoning, emotional appeal, and vivid storytelling. The second task of oratory is to communicate information.
