    Here are my four definitions I have found for Rhetoric: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/rhetoric -this provides a very basic & general definition of Rhetoric http://www.stanford.edu/dept/english/courses/sites/lunsford/pages/defs.htm -i found this web page interesting being that it shows the great minds of our people & how they used Rhetoric http://www.rpi.edu/dept/llc/webclass/web/project1/group4/index.html -this web page explains Aristotle view on Rhetoric but the interesting part is how Ethos, Pathos & Logos is used within the definition.

That being said, the PSA is a great guide that is flexible to just about all documents so this website is so handy in giving another idea to a writing tool and gives help/examples to other kind of documents. http://writing.colostate.edu/guides/ Desaray K.
