  1. REVIEW OF PERSUASIVE TECHNIQUES

  2. RHETORICAL QUESTIONS • A question to which no answer is expected because the answer is obvious.

  3. ALLUSIONS • An indirect reference to a person, place, event, or literary work with which the author believes the reader will be familiar. • Many works contain allusions to the Bible, classical mythology, or other works of literature. • By using allusions writers tap the knowledge and memory of the reader, drawing upon the associations already in the reader’s mind.

  4. REPETITION • The recurrence of words, phrases, or lines.

  5. PARALLELISMS • When the speaker or writer expresses ideas of equal worth with the same grammatical form.

  6. ELEVATED LANGUAGE • Formal words and phrases that lend a serious tone to the discussion.
