Stammering, its cause and cure by Benjamin Nathaniel Bogue
"Stammering, its cause and cure" by Benjamin Nathaniel Bogue is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. This work draws upon Bogue's extensive personal experience as a stammerer, addressing the intricacies of speech disorders with a focus on the root causes and potential remedies for conditions like stammering and stuttering. Bogue's narrative is grounded in his lifelong exploration of this affliction, suggesting both a personal and professional perspective on
the struggle for fluent speech. The opening of the book recounts Bogue's early life and the challenges he faced due to his stammering. He vividly describes the torment of being ridiculed in school, the feelings of dread associated with public speaking, and his numerous attempts to find a cure, including consultations with various specialists and the use of ineffective remedies. Through his reflections, it becomes evident that his experiences shaped the foundation of his understanding of stammering—he emphasizes that stammering stems from a lack of coordination between the mind and speech organs rather than solely from nervousness or physicality. The beginning sets the stage for Bogue's journey toward discovering effective solutions, ultimately leading him to develop his own method of treatment, which he promises to share in the later parts of the book.
