Presentations

/ˌprizɛnˈteɪʃənz/ noun

Definition

Formal displays or demonstrations of information, ideas, or products to an audience. The plural form of presentation.

Etymology

From Latin 'presentare' meaning 'to place before' or 'to show', composed of 'pre-' (before) plus 'sent' (being). Entered English through French in the 14th century, originally used for formal ceremonies or religious offerings.

Kelly Says

The modern business presentation with slides traces back to military briefings of World War II, but the concept of formal presentations dates to ancient rhetoric. Aristotle's principles of ethos, pathos, and logos still underpin effective presentations today, showing how this ancient art form adapted to modern technology while retaining its core persuasive elements.
