Ethos • Ethical appeal, means to convince an audience or judge of the speaker’s credibility or character. • Ethos is the Greek word for “character.” The word “ethic” is derived from ethos.
Ways to develop ethos • Choosing language that is appropriate for the audience and topic • Choosing proper level of vocabulary • Making yourself sound fair or unbiased • Introducing expertise or exceptional knowledge • Using correct grammar and good speech.
Pathos • Emotional appeal, to persuade a judge or audience by appealing to emotions. • Speakers use pathos to invoke sympathy from an audience or judge • Speakers make the audience feel what the author wants them to feel. • What English words come from Pathos??
More on Pathos • Pathos is the Greek word for both “suffering” and “experience.” The words empathy and pathetic are derived from pathos. • A common use of pathos would be to draw pity. Another use of pathos would be to inspire anger, perhaps in order to prompt action. • Develop pathos by using meaningful language, emotional tone, emotion evoking examples, stories of emotional events, and implied meanings.
Logos • Appeal to logic, to convince by use of logic or reason. • To use logos would be to cite facts and statistics, historical and literal analogies, and citing certain authorities on a subject. • Logos is the Greek word for “word,” however the true definition goes beyond that, and can be most closely described as “the word or that by which the inward thought is expressed • What English word comesfrom Logo?
More on Logos • Logos can be developed by using advanced, theoretical or abstract language • Also by citing facts (very important), using historical and literal analogies, and by constructing logical arguments.
