I haven't read something with many pictures for so long. It is hard to concentrate on the readings. I feel that by showing pictures in the reading help me understand what it is trying to say a lot better. Combining both pictures and words can let the people reading it more of a feel of what is actually going on. In this they have many pictures and good explanations of each. When we do rhetoric writing, we mostly want the reader to be interest in our writing and continue reading it. We have to persuade the reader to know what our points are and get the message we are trying to say. This reading talks about Ethos, Pathos and Logos. Each word were described in some sort of pictures. Ethos is about the credibility of what the author is trying to…
Aristotle was a Greece philosopher lived from 384BC to 322BC. He wrote and taught many subjects in his career. One of his incredible writings included Rhetoric.

Heinrichs presents the reader with Cicero’s five canons of persuasion which are invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery. Out of these five I believe you most importantly need to use arrangement and delivery. “Start by winning over the audience. Get them to like you through your shared values, your good sense, and your concern for their interest. Make them identify with you. All the tools of ethos apply here. Then launch into your argument, stating the facts, making your case, proving you point logically, and smacking down your opponent’s argument. End by getting the audience all charged up, through patriotism, anger—any of the emotions that lead to action.” (Heinrichs, 284). “Think about your voice—are you loud and confident enough for the room?—and gesture. Cicero included eyes (both eye contact and expression) as an aspect of gesture. A confident voice and expressions that start with the eyes: those are the chief secrets of actio.” (Heinrichs, 293). If you arrange your argument in a way that speaks your audience’s language while still getting across what you want from them, they are more likely to listen, thus more likely to act. Remember, seduce your audience with your rhetoric. The way you deliver your argument is essentially the most important part. If you have a foolproof speech but you stand in front of you audience murmuring and shaking, no one will listen. Know what you are talking about and carry that…
The biggest part of the speech that I have chosen is how are people want more of a better union and to keep ourselves safe appoint for the U.S. This main idea helps my central idea by having all of our women having equal rights to vote and to be treated as others. One rhetorical devices that was used in this main idea is pathos because there is emotion since the women don't have the right to vote like others and they get treated badly so they act differently. Another one would be ethos because it explains the speeches ethics. The effect the this speech has on the main idea is having allegation for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election.…
In the article Black Men and Public Spaces, Brent Staples uses the persuasive appeals of ethos, pathos, and logos to prove to the audience that he, and many other black men can be victimized solely due to being falsely perceived as a threat.

All of these persuasive appeals proposes that when others are scared of men who claims no threat, there is a chance of death.…
Reagan uses an appeal to basic needs when he aims at the need for security, using abstract language to elicit a strong response. In paragraph 26, Reagan declares, “When action is required to preserve our national security, we will act,” this offers hope to the audience with the nation’s protection. He reminds the audience he will meet this need, and promises a better future.…
“I grew up with two mothers. At an early age all of my friends started to notice that this was not normal, however I did not understand what they meant with this remark, ‘not normal’. To me I can’t think of anything more normal than growing up with two parents who love and care for you. When I would get sick they would take care of me, when I was sad they comforted me and when I misbehaved they would teach me what I should have done. Whilst most people are affected by ruined marriages between their parents I had the fortune of growing up in an almost perfect marriage.…
Some might say that logos is more effective in persuading because it appeals to one’s logic or reasoning. While they are not wrong about logos being an effective persuasion technique, there needs to be a pathos along with it to make the audience feel the emotion that the author is trying to provoke. Making the audience feel any emotion will make any speech much more memorable. Therefore, making the speech…
What constitutes a great and memorable speech? Following the recent results of the October 19th federal election in Canada, two major speeches were delivered – Justin Trudeau’s victory speech and Steven Harper’s defeat speech. Just as with President Barack Obama’s 2008 victory speech ("Top 10 Presidential Addresses of All Time"), people with political preference may rank one of the two speeches more highly solely due to the identity of the speaker. Thankfully however, Lifehack provides some invaluable insights on the basic factors of a memorable public address. According to the website, imagery increases the effectiveness of a strong public speech, as does connection with the audience and persuasive, powerful statements. Taking those factors into account will help in evaluating both Trudeau’s and Harper’s speeches with a minimal amount of political bias.…
Pathos is the appeal that is near the ending of the speech based on the speech outline it appears last out of all three rhetorical appeals. Evoking emotion out of the audience is essentials in convincing them to vote for you, for this reason it is not surprising that a good portion of politicians use pathos in their speeches. Some people use sob stories and whereas others decide to discuss issues that the public cares deeply about, the issues in particular and how the speaker addresses they can evoke a range of…
