6. Rhetorical Appeals • Logos: logical appeal • Pathos: emotional appeal • Ethos: ethical appeal

7. Text(Logos) conversation Audience(Pathos) Author(Ethos) The Rhetorical Triangle The Greek philosophers also gave us the rhetorical triangle, which argues that all forms of communication are a conversation between the text, the audience and the author.

8. Text(Logos) conversation Audience(Pathos) Author(Ethos) The Triple Threat:logos, pathos, ethos Most persuasive texts will use some combination of the three appeals to get their message across. Each of the appeals corresponds to a part of the rhetorical triangle (pictured here).

9. Logos • Logos appeals to logic and may include facts, statistics, or “quotes” • This information is used as evidence within the text to support your argument and persuade the audience. Example: “Nine out of ten health professionals agree, an apple a day really does keep the doctor away.”

10. Logos: related vocabulary • Logos literally means the “word” • Dialogue is the exchange of words between two people. • A monologue is the delivery of words from one person without any expectation of a response. • A logo is a symbol that represents all the words (and ideas) associated with a company or brand.

11. Logos: another example Here we see a chart showing a correlation between the fall of pirates and rise of natural disasters. Are you convinced by these statistics?

12. Logos: more examples(Can you identify the logical appeals used in these cartoons?)

13. Pathos • Pathos appeals to the emotions, needs and wants of the listener. • This strategy attempts to influence or manipulate the emotions and desires of the audience in order to persuade or convince the listener that their argument is true. Can you name any propaganda techniques that rely on emotional appeals?

14. Pathos: related vocabulary • Sympathy and empathy are both emotional states and have to do with shared feelings. • Pathological liars have no feelings of guilt when they do not tell the truth. • If someone is pathetic, they are pitifully sad.

15. Pathos: a second look(Can you identify the emotional appeals used below?)

16. Pathos: the power of story Many of the stories we hear and read as children are written to appeal to our emotions so that we will be persuaded to follow certain social and moral codes (which brings us to the next part of the rhetorical triangle—ethos… Can you name the moral of the story?)

17. Ethos • Ethos appeals to our sense of ethics, including social and moral codes, trust, and credibility. • There are two kinds of ethos—artistic and inartistic. • Artistic ethos is created and sustained through the delivery of the message. • Inartistic ethos pre-exists and comes along with someone’s status or station.

18. For example… • An officer of the law has inartistic ethos because of the station they hold (we trust them because of their position). • However, that same officer can lose our trust by their actions, as in the case of Rodney King.

19. For example… • The President of the United States has inartistic ethos because of their station (we applaud Presidents when they enter a room to deliver a speech). • However, the President can lose our trust through his or her actions (or through their artistic ethos). Can you think of any other examples?

20. Ethos: related vocabulary • Ethics are a set of moral principles, or a theory or system of moral values. • If you are an ethical person, you are considered a good person and you most likely follow the rules. • If someone has a good work ethic, they have a strong belief in work as a moral good. In other words, they work hard because they believe it is the right thing to do.

21. Grammar Practice • With your o’clock partner • Write the model sentence in your notes (after the ones you just glued in) • Circle thecorrelative conjunctions in the sentence • Choose a way to revise the sentence.  Don’t change the entire sentence because it's already a great sentence.  Try to add to it.   (Like, change a pronoun to a noun so we know who or what the sentence is about, or add an adjective or adverb.  Or, if it's a compound sentence, make it two sentences. Write your revised version on the folder) • Create an imitation sentence. Format it just like the model sentence. Write it on the sentence strip.
