Also, this allowed him to gain credibility and inform that he has first-hand experience with the topic he is talking about. By doing this Henry is able to call on the ethics of the audience to be more persuasive. Henry uses this technique again when he says, “I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided; and that is the lamp of experience” (Line 33). This sentence also represents his use of ethos as it specifically cites that he has experience.

Immediately as the speech begins, Henry’s tone manifests itself and remains unwavering. Henry begins, “It is natural for a man to indulge in the illustration of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth” (1). This sheds insight on his message and portrays him as a well versed individual. He then strengthens his tone when he says

n Shakespeare's King Henry V, King Henry prepares his troops for battle with a passionate speech about fighting, honor, and kinship. Henry uses strong ethos and pathos to persuade his men to fight the French, though they are outnumbered in the battle. Henry notes that his troops feel unprepared and overwhelmed for battle. This speech marks the moment where the boy Hal transforms into King Henry. For the first time, Henry takes on the role of a valiant king and takes control of the situation. He seizes the moment to prepare them and inspire them. Henry hopes by making an effective speech his men will understand why they need to fight.

Henry uses logical and ethical approaches to help make his point stand out more to the

This evokes pathos in the members of the convention, creating a feel of respect and assurance towards Henry. Essentially, to get his idea across as fast as possible, Henry conveys his ultimate purpose and sense of urgency to fight for justice immediately since there is “no time.” He creates another appeal to pathos that builds a perception of necessity within the members so that they want to assist Henry and his view quickly. Also, to create

Henry first begins his speech by stating he is indeed a patriot, or more accurately, the man who thinks the highest of patriotism, quickly followed by a respectful acknowledgement to his opposition. This very brief, yet powerful opening immediately establishes a very strong relationship to his audience, his opponents included. This short opening creates ethos as well, making Henry seem to be a person who truly does care for his country, and for every person, not only his allies. Followed by these first statements, he uses a very brief and unnoticed oversimplification of stating their issue is “nothing less than a question of freedom or

Everyone has emotions and has different views on life and opinions on the world. Although facts are true proven statements so may not be rather that convincing. Individuals have no liking to be overloaded with facts and ethics, they are in need of relating to and connecting with the topic. Henry uses pathos in his speech to great effect.

One example of persuasion in Henry’s speech is the use ethos by adding credibility to his cause by saying “We can hope to arrive

Among the upper classes, he proved over and over again that he was not a good king. He rarely, if ever, participated in Parliament, and often did not attend sittings of the king's council. When the council sat at Westminster, Henry usually managed to be somewhere else (Storey, 35). These actions give a picture of a king who, though solicited for his opinions, did not want to get involved in the

Introducing his speech this way not only aids in opening the minds of people opposed to his view, but it also gains attention from those in the audience. He then addresses Britain’s wrongdoings, in order to build respect, and to incite fear and anger. Henry used ethos, a powerful rhetorical

King Henry the V, a story of comadre and valor, a story in which resonates the might of the Saxons, the valiant french and the rewards for being loyal!

Henry V is a wise and loyal king, changing from a wild youth to a mature king. He is described to be an intelligent, thoughtful and an efficient statesman. He thinks carefully whether to invade France or not which represents his responsible character. King Henry gives a very strong speech which gave courage and confidence to his army that they could win the battle. This character describes him to be a king of great ability to fight and having good administrative skills. Throughout the play Henry’s nature is religious, merciful and compassionate.

There are numerous ways that people can lead, whether it is through manipulation, through dedication to their religion, or just following another person’s leadership style. Each style has the possibility of being effective, but only if the leader themselves uses this style correctly. In A Man for All Seasons, there is only one person who shows the capability of being a successful leader, that person was King Henry VIII. One of the reasons for this is because Henry used multiple intelligent methods while ruling. Another reason is that he did whatever was necessary to attain what he wanted. Lastly, when comparing King Henry’s leadership style to the other leadership styles in this play, it is evident that Henry was the most successful.
