Rhetoric
We study rhetoric because:
 it helps us to better appreciate
appeals to our ethos, pathos, &
logos.
© 2013 IndieReader
 it helps us to become more effective
persuasive speakers and writers.
© Alex Cates
Rhetoric Defined
 Rhetoric (n) - the art
of effective
expression (speaking
& writing) and the
persuasive use of
language (Burton, 2007)
George Doyle/Stockbyte/Getty Images
 Rhetoric requires understanding a
fundamental division between what is
communicated through language and
how this is communicated. (Burton,
2007)
© 2010 Grip Limited
 Aristotle stated that an arguer
must state a claim, or a
proposition, and prove it.

 The Greek words used to refer to the
proofs are logos (logic),
ethos (credibility), and pathos
(emotion).
The
Rhetorical
Triangle
Logos
 Logical proof appeals to people’s
reason, understanding, and common
sense.
(Weida & Stolley, 2013)
 Two main types of logos (logical
proofs) are deduction and induction.
Includes facts,
reasons and
opinions that
are
based on reality.
Example:
iHome
Cheerios
© iHome Audio
Ethos
 The ethical appeal is based on the
character, credibility, or reliability of
the writer.
(Weida & Stolley, 2013)
Includes credible sources, accurate
opposition, common ground
between the writer and the
audience.
Example:
Givenchy
Macintosh
© Givenchy Paris
Pathos
 Emotional appeal, appeals to the
audience’s needs, values, and
emotional sensibilities.
(Weida & Stolley, 2013)
Includes personal accounts or
interviews
Only use an emotional appeal if it
supports the claim
of an argument.
Example:
UMDNJ
BC SPCA
© Copyright 2012 SGWMcGuggan
Karios
 The opportune occasion for speech.
(Burton, 2007)
©1996-2013 Madison Metropolitan School District
Audience
 Rhetorical analysis always takes into
account how an audience shapes the
composition of a text or responds to
it.
(Burton, 2007)
© 2013 Entrepreneur Podcast Network
Decorum
 One's words and subject
matter must aptly fit
together, to kairos, the
audience, and the speaker.
(Burton, 2007)
© 2013 Wikia, Inc
Practice
Based on the each add determine:
 Ethos, Pathos or Logos?
 What’s the Karios?
 Who’s the audience?
 What’s the decorum?
Scheme
 A scheme is any artful deviation from
the typical arrangement of words in a
sentence
(Burton, 2007)
 Words preserve their literal
meaning, but are placed in a
significant arrangement of some
kind.
Active Voice
 In a sentence using active voice, the
subject of the sentence performs the
action expressed in the verb.
(Toadvine, Brizee, & Angeli, 2011)
Passive Voice
 In a sentence using passive voice,
the subject is acted upon; he or she
receives the action expressed by the
verb.
(Toadvine, Brizee, & Angeli, 2011)
Active Voice versus Passive
Voice
 Active Voice- The boy hit the ball.
 Passive Voice- The ball was hit by
the boy.
© Copyright 2009-2013 real-world-physics-problems.com
Rhetoric uses Active Voice
 This makes the meaning clear for
readers, and keeps the sentences
from becoming too complicated.
(Toadvine, Brizee, & Angeli, 2011)

Notas do Editor

  1. According to Aristotle, rhetoric is "the ability, in each particular case, to see the available means of persuasion." He described three main forms of rhetoric: Ethos, Logos, and Pathos
  2. When the mother reads the facts off the box she is appealing to reason.
  3. The Mac presents himself as a reliable source and shows the faults in the PC’s argument making the PC an uncredible source.
  4. Some say that there should be no appeals to emotion or attempts to arouse the emotions of the audience in an argument. The idea is that an argument should appeal only to reason.Emotional proofs (pathos) are appropriate in argument when the subject itself is emotional and when it creates strong feelings.
  5. Some say that there should be no appeals to emotion or attempts to arouse the emotions of the audience in an argument. The idea is that an argument should appeal only to reason.Emotional proofs (pathos) are appropriate in argument when the subject itself is emotional and when it creates strong feelings.-The music and images appeal to pathos because of the emotional response of the audience.
