Examples Of Ethos Pathos Logos

In the first paragraph, the author uses ethos by mentions Harvard to prove his credibility to the reader. In the second paragraph he uses pathos in his thesis statement, to spark emotion that underage drinking is a huge problem that needs to be fixed. In the third paragraph pathos is used by the author when he tries to list reasons why the drinking age should be changed, because people that are 18 can serve in the military, get married, vote, and etc. He also says “But laws in all 50 states say that no alcoholic beverages may be sold to anyone until that magic "21" birthday” when he says magic 21 is almost trying to stir up emotion. In the fourth paragraph he uses logos by comparing the rates of drinking with young adults in United States and

In the beginning of the book, Coates, as a little kid and his big brother, Big Bill gets into an alteration with the Murphy Homes (a gang), but Coates is not a fighter; he avoids fights and does not like to feel angry. Coates does not throw one single punch and tries to run away from the fight. Instead, he gets struck by one of them; however, he manages to escape the scene. Using the rhetorical analyisis, Coates used logos and pathos in this scene. Logos is facts and statistics, but also, knowledge or logic.

The thesis of this narrative is that the narrator had been explaining how fortunate she had been to be able to work full time despite being partially disabled, and is trying to bring false hopes for herself so she wouldn’t be discouraged for who she really is.

The speaker used different types of appeals towards his topic. He first used Pathos, by explaining how he was a firefighter and how he wanted to save lives by “slaying dragons”, which means to put out the fire. In his topic he showed how there is a new dragon that he wanted to slay, a dragon that consisted of five different dragons, each head had a disease or illness that is now killing many people. By using this fiction picture and showing his audience how much people are dying because of not living a healthy lifestyle shows the appeal to emotions that the speaker used in his introduction. Then after that I found that he merged both the appeal to reason which is logos, and the appeal to authority which is ethos. By talking about how he found

The rhetorical appeal logos are used throughout the chapter to back up the author's argument. The author uses logos to approach to the audience by discussing what are true facts and allowing the audience to accept those facts. For example, she includes in the chapter that the teenagers she spoke with all received cell phones between the ages of nine and thirteen. She even includes how having a phone can exclude the teens from interacting with seeing friends, going out to watch moves, shopping, and spending time at the beach. Turkle even uses examples in the real world to back up her argument.

Connection, trust, and facts make up the basis of how to persuade, which is vital for science, writing essays, and many other fields. Trust is depended on bias and experience of a subject, this is a tool of persuasion called ethos. For example, Mr. North (a teacher who has taught for many years) would have a more convincing ethos than a new teacher on the subject of students. While ethos is important, facts and statistics, logos, are considered more trustworthy than status of a figure. Logos include evidence that are supported to help prove a point, a fact or statistic could be: students are more likely to succeed if they are working in groups. Connections are the most major tool of persuasion. Pathos uses connection to cause emotions, this

Ethos, Pathos, and Logos are three different ways to persuade an audience to a point of view. Each one is used in their own way to dictate the direction a reader should be thinking. Ethos is to use ethics to persuade a reader. This could be done by using the credibility, or character of the author as a form of persuasion. Pathos is using emotions, such as famous inspirational quotes, stories and a vivid dialog to persuade the reader.

The three approach types are ethos, pathos, and logos. Ethos is when you have chosen your approach which is the tone of the paper. Pathos is when you have your emotional appeal for your paper. This to me is the most important part of the paper. Logo is your source or logic providing evidence of your rebuttal.

The next sample of pathos in the story is when the author uses heart-wrenching vocabulary. During the marketplace scene, when the men are being taken to work at labor camps, the elderly people are forced to stay back. This is an excellent example of when the narrator uses this type of vocabulary . The narrator uses words like “disobey” and ”labor camps”. It also gives the reader chilling quotes such as, “This crowd was silent. In a way, it resembled a rally- but it was different from that too. I don't know what it was exactly. One only knows that we suddenly stopped and my sister began to tremble, and then I caught the trembling, and she said: "Let’s run away.”...” These phrases and vocab terms display the appeal of pathos very well, it makes

When an author writes a persuasive article of any kind they use at least one of 3 appeals to get their point across. The appeals of Pathos, Ethos, and Logos are used by all persuasive essay writers to prove the point they are trying to relay across and are applied to every argument. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader, pathos is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response, logos is an appeal to logic, and is a way of persuading an audience by reason.

Every point that is bought up by the author Ellen L. Lutz uses one or more of these points to help prove that point that native american languages need to be saved.

After considering the information in this week’s instructor guidance and readings, I understand ethos, pathos, and logos to be... Ethos: is used in an argument when the writer would like to appeal to their audience’s ethics. If a reader can see the credibility in the writer’s opinion they are likely to believe their argument. Pathos: is used in an argument when the writer would like to appeal to their audience’s emotion. Pathos is often used to evoke an emotional response from the audience.

The appeal to logos, ethos, and pathos are used everyday in many instances. A commercial is just one instance, and Gatorade commercials use them very well. The specific Gatorade commercial I chose to use was the one where Kevin Durant has a nightmare about being blocked by Dwyane Wade that aired in 2013. Kevin Durant doesn’t want that dream to come true so he practices very hard all while using Gatorade products. Meanwhile Dwyane Wade has a nightmare that he gets dunked on by KD, so he decides to use Gatorade products while he practices. The commercial is essentially saying that if you use Gatorade products that you will achieve your goals easier, and be more like the great NBA players that use the products as well.

Alone, the use of only ethos, pathos, or logos would make for a semi-interesting story, but together, they tell a believable account of real events. Beatty makes use of all three techniques to connect with her audience and share her own story as well as hard facts that verify the events. The powerful combination of ethos, pathos, and logos conveys Beatty’s story convincingly.

Reading, some people hate it, some people love it. As a person who hated it and grew to love it, i know how easily reading can be influence, rather its the cover of the book, the genre, or even critics on the book.

Rhetorical Devices: Ethos, Pathos, Logos The two articles written had different goals to reach out to readers.
