Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher “You have enemies? Good. That means you stood up for something,sometime in your life.”(Winston Churchill) Former Prime Minister, of the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill was most known for his involvement in World War II, and his refusal to succumb to what he feels is not right. He is also known for his great speeches. On the other hand, you have Margaret Thatcher also a former Prime Minister of the United, and a definite feminist." If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a women. In some ways they are the same, and in some ways they differ. In Churchill's speech, “ Master’s of our Fate”, he uses the power of pathos and Anaphora to seize the attention of the audience; he also uses a passionate tone to emit sincerity and to express how passionate he is on the subject ; thus , …show more content…
Both of the speeches produce passionate tones, which is a great quality for leaders. When Using anaphoric such as, " spent,spent, spent, and spent... ", Thatcher conveys the message that spending is very important to her; thus, creating a passionate tone. Churchill's way of showing a passionate tone is through his diction. "...with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us.", not only does he us diction here ,but he also uses the word God to show that God will be with us ,and God will help us. This also shows his passionate relationship with his religion. Thatcher likes to include statistics like, "there are now nearly twenty-five million people in jobs compared with only about eighteen million in the 1930s.", to remind the audience about what her goals are. She is telling them facts so that reality hits them in smack in the face. She wants them to know that she wants change and she is the change for
Arthur Miller's The Crucible highlights a human frailty, arrogance, responsible for the witch hysteria in the 1690s. Each character portrays arrogance which make him abuse power. The play explores the human nature of being arrogant and the fear of tarnishing one's reputation, by acting unmorally. Through Hale's, Parris's, and Danforth's actions, Miller indicates that arrogance is the frailty most responsible for the witch hysteria.
BACKGROUND Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill was a British politician who was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945, during 2nd world war which was in a horrible state after Chamberlain who wasn 't the greatest Prime Minister for the job considering the situation Britain were in but then was re-elected again in 1951 to 1955. Winston was born on the 30th of November 1874 in Woodstock in United Kingdom and died 24th of January 1965 in London, United Kingdom. He was 1.67m tall, he had a wife and 6 children who he loved very much and was a great father and husband. LINK TO AUSTRALIA Churchill did not really care to much about Australia 's fate when Japan 's powerful armies threatened Australia.
Arthur Miller was the author of the Crucible who wrote this in 1953 in response to the second red scare of communism in the United States. He used the Salem Witch Trials to compare the situation happening at home where many people were accusing others of being communists. In the play people are accused of witchcraft and given unfair trials much like what was happening in the 50’s. Because lying had more benefits than honesty, many people in the play decided to lie and confess to witchcraft in order to stay alive.
A group of girls were dancing in the woods with a black slave named Tituba. When the girls got caught dancing in the woods, they started blaming other people in the village of being involved with witchcraft. Soon enough, the whole village believed the devil exists and lives within the fear of each person. Arthur Miller’s The Crucible explores through the individuals vengeance, reputation, fear, and seeking for power with the drama of suspense and impact.
In The Crucible, John Proctor the protagonist, becomes a victim of the witch trials when his wife Elizabeth, is accused of witchcraft. In order to free his wife, Proctor must convince Judge Danforth of his wife’s innocence. Judge Danforth does not sign condemnations lightly and takes meticulous inspection of his cases to determine the guilty party. He is also a highly religious man who takes matters between God and men seriously. It is because of Danforth’s dedication to the law and God that Proctor utilizes ethos, logos, and pathos to persuade him.
Lastly, Thatcher applies shift change to show her developing tone throughout the eulogy. The first instance of this is in paragraph two she starts with a conjunction “yet.” She utilizes this to change the focus to Reagan’s accomplishments in his time as president. Another example of shift change is in paragraph twelve where she then uses the same conjunction “yet” to pull her attention to his ideals and his strength in defeating his Soviet enemies.
Ethos. Miller continuously uses the ethos appeal by using sophisticated words and adding in his own person experience to show us as the reader that he knows what he is talking about. Throughout his passage he consistently adds very advanced word choice. For example, he says things like “Lucifer’s many faced lieutenants, diabolism, bemused, cosmology, and social antagonist”. However, with all these words and phrases there is another much less complicated way to say the same thing.
The Crucible Act V Narrator: A drumroll was heard in the distance Elizabeth: No! My husband mustn’t die! Elizabeth is heard weeping.
This speech did that and established Winston Churchill as one of the greatest leaders in British history, within his first few months of taking office as Prime Minister of Great Brittan. While presenting this speech Churchill used a multitude of rhetorical devises to engage and rally the public. He used devises such as repetition, allusion, and use of ethos, pathos and logos. Churchill’s’ rhetoric combined with hi tone and emotion during his
I admire Churchill’s courage to fight for Britain by going to war, but I feel like he could 've done something else. It creates financial problems for all the parties involved, creates sadness, resentment, and most devastatingly: people die. If you go to war, not only are you losing money, that could be used for schools, shelter, hospitals, and food, you are exposing the lives of innocent people. War has never solved anything.
Churchill effectively resonates with the audience and rallies them, through the rhetorical strategies of historical evidence, in order to ease his audience into the context of the battle and to show them the importance of the struggle, and the strategy of emotional appeal, through invoking feelings of pride, patriotism, and a sense of duty to maintain the survival of their homeland. The result was an effective delivery of the speech to the audience, which resonated and stuck with people, easily becoming one of the more important speeches in modern
In Arthur Miller’s dramatic play The Crucible, John Proctor, the protagonist, symbolized truth and justice by displaying honor and pride in his name. The change in balance between those two attributes acted as a catalyst in defining moments of the play. In the beginning, Proctor equally reflected both pride and honor in separate events. However, when forced to make a decision, he chose honor over pride. Ultimately, both his honor and pride pushed him to commit the ultimate sacrifice.
1. Quotation: “And in the Bible it says Thou shalt not kill but there were the Crusades and two world wars and the Gulf War and there were Christians killing people in all of them.” (pg. 29) Response: I like the characters thought in this quote because it shows a different view of how people break rules but don’t realize that there actually breaking them.
