Of Pain Predators, And Pleasure By Walter Isaacs

Pathos is the writers attempt to appeal to the audience emotions. For instance, “In June, a professor protecting himself with a pseudonym wrote an essay for Vox describing how gingerly he now has to teach. ‘“I’m a Liberal Professor, and My Liberal Students Terrify Me,”’ the headline said” (Lukianoff and Haidt). The authors appeal to emotion paints a picture in the reader’s mind, further opening their eyes to make them feel how the professor was feeling. Also, naming the article “The Coddling of the American Mind” was a great was to represent how the problem was being addressed. The use of the word “coddling” reflected the way colleges were treating their students like babies. Enforcing trigger warnings to protect the students are not helping them for the future. This appeals to pathos because the audience gets a glimpse of what the after effect of “babying” has on

He first uses pathos when he talked about how many animals are euthanized each year and how those animals are used for food (Foer). By using pathos it either brings out the audience’s sympathy or anger trying to convince them to make a difference. In his article he is trying to appeal to the audience emotional side to convince them eating animals is wrong. The second time he uses pathos is when he talks about how the Hawaiians hold the dog’s nose shut ¬¬in order to conserve the blood (Foer). When he talks about other cultures traditions, he is trying to show his readers how disgusting and horrifying other traditions are no matter which animal is being killed. The third time he uses pathos in his article is when he talks about a Filipino recipe. “First, kill a medium-sized dog, then burn the fur over a hot fire (Foer). While reading this sentence most animal lovers would feel horrified at the mental image running through their mind. His whole point of using the Filipino recipe was to show people how other cultures use different animals, but he mostly wanted people to see if the recipe called for chicken, cow, or even horse most people would be okay with the recipe.

Pathos appeals to the reader’s emotions by using emotional stories and imagery. Pathos strategies are often used to grab and hold the reader’s attention.

He is not even trying to persuade the reader to stop eating lobster. Wallace is trying to give different perspectives to a audience that most likely eats lobster. He effectively does this to a audience that will probably support some of the things he is saying through the use of rhetorical devices. He use pathos to try to make the readers feel different emotions on eating and killing lobsters. The author uses ethics in a special way by using a plethora of research and sophisticated writing to make his ideals seem credible to the audience. Lastly, Wallace uses logos in his article by putting loads of scientific information that helps support his argument on lobsters. This article was made for a tough audience that probably majority if not all eat or has eaten lobster. It doesn't really matter to this audience and will not change their opinions but the article was made to make them think more about the next time they decide to eat

I found in the play “Leaving Home” that I could find the use of pathos in various spots. I noticed the definition “an expression or utterance that evokes sadness or sympathy, esp. in a work of literature; a description, passage, or scene of this nature” more than the others. In this text, I could really see the use of pathos being used by the emotionally-loaded language, the emotional examples, the figurative language, and the emotional tone. The actors had a lot going on in just the short time of the play.

The incorporation of pathos in an argument can form a strong structured reading or a make the reader feel emotionally taken advantage of. In Hooks argument she uses pathos effectively, without exploiting readers of her article. She states, "estrangement from nature and engagement in mind/body splits made it all the more possible for black people to internalize white-supremacist assumptions about black identity" (973). Hooks uses this sentence to appeal to those who have experienced a loss of identity to feel for the blacks. Also, the citation brings a desirable topic up of unity within different race and cultures, which adds more reason for the reader to be persuaded to her side of the argument: the emotional pull of how blacks were treated even away from their normal ways of living.

One example of how Brady uses pathos to connect emotionally with the readers is in paragraph two. In paragraph two Brady writes,”Why do I want a wife?”(Brady 229), she writes this not as a serious statement, but as a sarcastic one.

An example of pathos that was used is where it says, “And so a quiet, respectful, humble Negro who had the unmitigated temerity to ‘feel sorry’ for a white woman has had to put his word against two white peoples.” I know that this quote is pathos because Atticus is trying to explain Tom so that he seems harmless by saying that he is quiet, humble, and respectful. He also tries to get people to feel bad so they know Tom isn’t guilty. This part was better in the movie because of how they put the camera on Atticus and his facial expressions changed. It really makes you start to feel bad that Tom is going through all of the
