Patrick Henry, a Virginian lawyer, made himself known for the speeches supporting American democracy. He is known as the "Orator of Liberty." In 1775, American colonists were still under Great Britain’s power. Many were hoping to be able to work out their disagreements and remain British subjects. Patrick Henry had had enough of cooperating with the British. Henry believed the only solution left was to go to war with Britain. So he gives a speech to the Virginia Convention to plead his cause. In his speech he uses many different examples of ethos, pathos, and logos.

Identify an example of pathos in the speech. Explain why it fits the parameters of pathos.

Noel Pearson’s An Australian History For Us All and Margaret Atwood’s Spotty Handed Villainesses effectively explore the challenges faced when rectifying the consequences of the past on the present. This is achieved through the implementation of rhetorical techniques, including ethos, logos, and pathos, generating textual integrity. While Pearson uses the rhetorical triangle in order to shed light on the ramifications of past injustices towards Aboriginal Australians, Margaret Atwood employs it to showcase the complications derived from second wave feminism, and its impact on the portrayal of female characters in literature.

Music is a powerful force that people make every day. Music expresses what one person is feeling and it can pass on and relate to others. Whether it the beats or the lyrics of music it can make us feel a certain way. Many rappers though out the years use their voice to speak up for the people that believe they do not matter. Music gathers people together because we relate to the lyrics that are being said. We see the world from the artist point of view and relate it to our lives and spread the message to the ones around us. Rappers use music to express everyday events that they have faced in their lives and how they relate to a certain audience.

In the state of Arizona we are receiving a $75 million state budget cut to all public universities. Throughout this editorial called "Arizona Legislature passes deep cuts to Public Universities" the author effectively uses Ethos, Pathos, Logos, and Kairos. Our Public Universities have been spending way more money than the Government is giving them to support education. You are all probably thinking that someone would at least notice the overspending right? Well they did but they noticed it too late. To the readers it feels as if the State of Arizona does not really care of the success of students and they rather just charge all the students higher tuition when they could have prevented that from happening just by keeping track of all the Universities spending.

There have been many problems in society over human history. Speeches have been one solution to these problems. Speakers attempt to have the audience reach a specific conclusion after hearing the speech. They do this by using rhetoric. “Rhetoric is the art of framing an argument so that it can be appreciated by an audience.” –Philip Johnson. Many speeches can be pointed at as an example of this, such as the famous “I Have a Dream” by Martin Luther King Jr. Another example that is not as well-known is John F. Kennedy’s “Civil Rights Address”.

In my classical argumentation essay, I used several rhetorical strategies in order to make my essay more appealing and convincing towards my readers. In my essay, I used rhetorical appeals (ethos, logos, and pathos). I used logos by providing statistics on the amount of children that are not in school and the amount of children that are employed in places like India, Nigeria and Brazil. I then used pathos by providing facts on how children are placed in hazardous environments and their lack of education. I used ethos by providing the authors of the sources that I used, who are experts in their respective fields. An additional strategy I used was organization, as I organized my paper according to the framework for a classical argumentation.

Have you ever been completely controlled to where all self respect is stolen away? Have you ever been harassed until you feel like nothing more except worthless property? Have you ever felt these to the point where you were even terrified to speak up? Well, this is the constant feeling of a normal human being under the influence of domestic violence. The, “Super Bowl 2015: Domestic Violence PSA”, by the Wall Street Journal, depicts these feelings of helplessness in an eye opening manner. It takes the audience throughout a thrashed home of a family shaken by domestic violence with a chilling background 911 emergency phone call. This situation contains a recording of a real life distress call where a woman calls

Socrates was a greek philosopher who found himself in trouble with his fellow citizens and court for standing his grounds on his new found beliefs from his studies about philosophical virtue, justice, and truth. In “Apology” written by Plato, Socrates defended himself in trial, not with the goal of escaping the death sentence, but with the goal of doing the right thing and standing for his beliefs. With this mindset, Socrates had no intention of kissing up to the Athenians to save his life. Many will argue that Socrates’ speech was not very effective because he did not fight for his life, he just accepted the death sentence that he was punished with. In his speech he said, “But now it’s time to leave, time for me to die and for you to live.”

The picture I chose, shows an image that is in the public eye of today’s society, the image of smoking and how people can be affected by it. In this picture, viewers can see how smoking can really affect one’s life and how the addiction can be harmful to not only the outside of the body, but also the inside. This photo shows a controversial side of the appeal that people become addicted to cigarettes and, even after trying to go cold turkey, some people still cannot get over the addiction. The first thing that is noticed is the noose. The noose is being wrapped around the woman’s neck comparing the cigarette to the noose in attempt to show death. The next thing noticed is the knife, in attempt to show the smoker slicing their wrist. The ad

We are set in a small, hole in the wall bar in classical Athens fittingly named “doxa”. Favored by philosophers and sophists alike as a forum for discussion and debate, it is not uncommon for famous figures like Isocrates or Aristotle to run into one another. Tonight it happens that Aristotle runs into his mentor and colleague Plato and the two of them start discussing the controversial topic of rhetoric , when Gorgias - a few drinks deep and never shy of an argument - decides to walk over and weigh in on the matter.

A rhetorical question is a question that you ask without expecting an answer. The question might be one that does not have an answer. It might also be
