Discussion: Your rhetorical life - 53 views

Before this class I never really understood exactly what rhetoric was and the many ways we all actually use it on a daily basis. Now that I understand what it is I see that I use it everyday. Like many people in this class the biggest way recently that I have used rhetoric is when talking to my friends about the election. I was talking to my best friend just before the election because she was still confused who to vote for. I used logos to explain to her the differences between the two candidates and why one would be a better president than the other. I guess it worked because by the end of our discussion she had made her own decision based upon now knowing different things about each one.

Barak Obamas logo represents change “one voice can change” is part of his slogan
- Charlotte Randolph on 07 Nov 08
  
  This sentence kind of confuses me. It's how you start I think that is confusing, saying his logo represents.....try to reword it.

This proposition is truly important because it’s a huge change that will affect more than half of the people in America. This proposition shows change. Change is not something that many people are in favor of because change can be scary. However his logo illustrates clearly “change.”

It is the act of writing or speaking effectively. This “essential element of human action” includes many different forms

  These two sentences to me seem kind of choppy. They are complete sentences but I feel like they could be combined.

Ethos relies on the character of the speaker. Pathos evokes emotion from the audience and logos relies on logic or reason to prove a point.

Although Biden does not agree with the war at this point, at the beginning, he greatly supported the invasion of Iraq. Since then, he has now become one of the “war’s toughest critics.”

Jumping to a similar article
- Charlotte Randolph on 16 Oct 08
  
  This sentence is structured well, but the beginning of it is kind of odd to me. Maybe you could think of another way to start this sentence.

  Look at the different types of torture. It is not mainly mental, there are a lot of physical types of torture, too.

Now how torture evolved into today’s society came from these past events and many more that were not discussed. However torture now is different than what it was ten years ago. Because of the laws and regulations that are set in place. Also because we don’t want history to repeat it self even though it has before. Now that our world is high tech and information can travel all over the world in a manner of seconds we are more aware if something tragic were to occur anywhere else. This helps from another genocide occurring. One of the questions that was always asked when I was learning about the Holocaust was where was the rest of the world when all of this was occurring?
- Charlotte Randolph on 16 Oct 08
  
  Look at the way these sentences are worded. A few of the don't make sense and they are choppy. Just try to reword these sentences and word them a little better.

In the academic community we would do well, all of us, faculty and students, to think of ourselves as rhetors -- even as rhetoricians, students of rhetoric. Because in some ways we are.
- Charlotte Randolph on 19 Sep 08
  
  I think this is very true because we use rhetoric in papers we right in school to convince the readers of what we are discussing. Faculty uses rhetoric to persuade their colleagues and students almost every day.

Discourse that affects an audience, that informs, moves, delights, and teaches, has a rhetorical aim. . . . Rhetoric implies choices, for both the speaker or writer and the audience. When we practice rhetoric we make decisions about our subject, audience, point of view, purpose, and message. . . . Furthermore, the audience must have a choice in responding to the message, must be able to adopt, modify, or reject it.
- Charlotte Randolph on 19 Sep 08
  
  I liked this paragraph because I think it is very true, when we practice rhetoric we are making a decision about what we want to convince our audience of and how to do it. At the same time the audience makes the desision of how to take the information and accept it or not. This is really evident in a debate, because you as the speaker make the decision of how to convince your audience and they in return decide how they will respond to it.

  This site uses Logos because it gives details of what this pill is and how it is used and how often to use it, etc. They give you all the information you need to know about taking this pill, and they use a creative way to show it. You can click on a part of the pictures and it can direct you to where you can get information about the product. I think this is really an effective way of presenting information to an audience.

  All of the videos that the Truth Campaign uses are Pathos driven beacuse they rely on your emotions to convince you that cigarettes are bad for you. The advertisement "Tough Love" relies on people thinking "wow, there is a lot of bad chemicals in cigarettes." This campaign is really effective at using Pathos, because their ads really get you thinking about how the big companies care nothing about the little people.

  This site uses Ethos, because if you respect Emeril Lagasse as someone who knows what they are talking about then you are likely to listen to what he is saying. The advertisers rely on the fact that people respect his opinion and will use this product because he endorses it.
