I am not a smart man nor clever boy. I have lived a humble life as a dunce for most part of my early childhood years getting into mischief as a young boy does. As any young boy would, I valued playing around and goofing off a lot more than I did my education. From 2000 to 2009 I was barely passing my elementary school classes even much so I flunked the second grade because of my actions. All of this didn't phase me however, I was an outlaw. I did whatever I wanted because my mother and stepfather worked all day and my sisters couldn't handle me most of the time. So I ended up getting into no good with the local gangsters down in Bryan Street here in the mission.

During the funeral scene, Brutus and Marc Antony included pathos in their speeches to evoke pity and sadness for the people of Rome. Brutus applies some examples of pathos throughout his speech. In lines 23 -25 Brutus says, “I weep for him. As he was valiant, I honor him.” This quote implies that Brutus did not kill Caesar out of hate. It demonstrated to the crowd that Brutus really did love Caesar. Brutus also said “there is tears for his love,” meaning that he is sad that Caesar is gone. While Brutus included some pathos in his speech, Antony’s entire speech appealed to emotion. Antony used pathos to find a connection with the audience. In his speech, he says “My heart is there in the coffin with Caesar.” This showed the crowd that Antony

Padre Antonio Vieira became a missionary priest and returned to Brazil in 1652, with very complex messages about slavery. His teachings could be interpreted as being against the Christian religion, but they raised a lot of questions about the slavery of the New World and whether or not the God's name was being used in vain. During his two sermons in Bahia and Sao Luis do Maranhao, he used his own beliefs of universal church to convert non-Christians to the faith. He uses the Bible, as his reference and his faith in God, as his guide to show that the settlers should treat the natives fairly and humanly. Vieira insisted on two main slaveries, that of the body and soul, and emphasizes that there is no forgiveness for selling your soul. Most

In Owen Peterson’s volume of Representative American Speeches, he notes, “A eulogy has two distinctive characteristics which sets it apart from most other forms of public address: (1) it is meant to be delivered at a ceremonial occasion to honor the subject; and (2) it is designed to be heard by an audience that already shares the speaker’s respect, affection, or admiration for

Ethos logos and pathos was a big part of these speeches. Antony and Brutus used different ones to appeal to the crowed at the funeral. Brutus used more logos. He appealed the audiences with reasoning and logic. He told them why he did it and all the reasons he did. On the other hand, Antony used pathos. He used the crowds emotion to overcome what they were feeling feeling inside. He used the sadness that the Romans had to overcome what he did.

In the play Julius Caesar, Caesar’s funeral is very dramatic. Both Antony and Brutus give speeches, and both of them really connect with their audiences, especially Antony. Shakespeare often uses various literary devices in his plays, many of which are used in Antony’s funeral speech. Antony uses logos, ethos and pathos in his funeral speech to connect with the crowd.

In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, William Shakespeare’s characters Brutus and Mark Antony present eulogy speeches to the Roman masses. Brutus attempts to comfort the people by using logos and explaining that Caesar deserved his death as he became a tyrant. Antony, on the other hand, employs pathos when pointing out that Caesar was a just man and ruler who did not deserve death. Both of the men use ethos in their speeches to appeal to their listeners but Antony is far more successful in his application of this rhetorical strategy which sets the pace for what happens following the two speeches.

In the tragedy, Julius Caesar, written by Shakespeare many opinions are spoken after the death of a character. The people of Rome are in a state of shock due to the assassination of their leader, Julius Caesar. Brutus, one of the many conspirators, who deviously planned the death of Caesar, stands on a platform to perform a speech at Caesar’s funeral. Mark Antony, a friend of Caesar, will speak of what he prepared after Brutus. Throughout Brutus’s speech, he portrays a persuasive yet a forthright tone throughout his speech by using one sided evidence, epimone, and antithesis, while Antony conveys a sentimental and sarcastic tone by using apostrophe, verbal irony, and rhetorical questions.

Antonio Armijo our brother, father, son, and friend has just recently passed. He was a wonderful man who led the first commercial caravan from Abiquiu, New Mexico. He was a dear friend to the sixty men that traveled with him that very day. On the spanish trail he traded with the US and his fellow Mexicans. As you may know he was well known for his diary he wrote on his Expedition. His most famous achievement was discovering the Las Vegas Route.

He did not fit in. Black, straight hair. From the back, a twig, but wild as a monkey. Most would call him a handful, or a “spirited” boy. His name, Diego, my first and best friend during preschool. We were like brothers, but respected each other as peers.
