While it is hard to believe now, before 1900 when people did not have movies, TV, phones, or internet, they would listen to people talk. A long talk was called an oration. A person giving that talk was called an orator. The Romans of 2000 years ago perfected that technique. Their orators tried to do two things: entertain people and convince people to adopt some particular point of view. Cicero was especially good with his techniques.
