The Effects Of Emotional Appeals On The Mind Of Reasoning

Reason also known as (logic or logos) refers to any attempt to appeal an argument using only valid facts. Some individual’s actions are based on reasons, as they are managed by rationality and they think very cautiously about all the decision they make. Conversely, passion also known as (emotion or pathos) refers to being able to persuade a situation

Her stories are fiction, but they use aspects from people she has encountered in her daily life. Lower and middle class characters appear the most frequently throughout her works. The way she uses these ordinary people and transforms them into dynamic characters is unmatched. She uses very lengthy and in-depth descriptions of her character’s inner qualities that shape who they are. She uses these descriptions to show the inner workings of the character’s minds through an omniscient view (Entzminger 685-66).

My job as a volunteer, is at times to call certain groceries to delivering the food to the warehouse. Through more emotional seasons such as Thanksgiving and Christmas (sometimes families in desperate need come to the actual warehouse), the appeal of emotions work better than the idea of reason. The reason for this is the natural nature of human beings. Humans naturally are not sadistic creatures instead the trait of empathy is imperative to our decisions regarding morals. Our empathy for others and emotional understanding allows us to produce more knowledge through shared knowledge as it gives a path to understanding of others. However, in opposition to this view reason can not be counted out in term of being left to operating purely on emotion. Without  reason I would decide to give every family that showed an entire ration to last them for years, but this would lead to consequences that are not wanted. As a result we should not rely on pure individual emotions as the foundation of  our moral decisions but also have a more consistent system to make our decisions based off of which is reason. With this being said emotions often times contradict our reasoned arguments but both are codependent of each other in the justification of

2. Reasoning with Emotions: This involves using emotions to promote thinking and cognitive activity. Emotions help prioritize what we pay attention and react to; we respond emotionally to things that grab our attention.

This shows how influential her writing has become throughout the years. Austen’s writing opened the door for other writers to explore romantic literature. “J.K Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, grew up reading Austen, who she described as ‘the pinnacle to which all other authors aspire’” (Redman). She inspires others, not only to write romance, but science fiction like Rowling has done. Her influence on the literature work is is astonishing considering she lived in the 1700’s. Many writers of that time are forgotten by most, but she has lived on way past her death. Austen is taught in high school and college English classes. She has been a huge inspiration for female writers as well. “Jane Austen is now thought of as one of the greatest English authors and considered by many as the first great woman novelist” (Jane Austen [b.1775-d. 1817]). Being considered as one of the first female novelist is a great accomplishment and a huge honor, it is a great shame the “creator” of romance did not get the recognition until after her death. She could have helped develop most extraordinary writers in her

“Reasoning is the thinking that is coherent and logical.” As the dictionary definition very clearly and correctly states, reasoning is certain thinking or a conclusion drawn from a logical fact. Hence, the reasoning of a certain thing, which is a conclusion drawn from an existing fact or the happening of an event, is trusted more than the conclusion which is drawn due the development of one’s emotions. Consequently, when a person would say to another, “You’re being emotional”, it is considered as a cynical comment while the statement, “You’re being logical” is taken as praise. Therefore, it is obvious that logic and reasoning holds strengths which are stronger than those of emotions.

Many people know Jane Austen to be one of the most well known names in literature’s history. She is known for her classic romance novels. At home, she had much support on the creative front of writing. Her father and mother were supportive of any creative endeavors their children would go through. Jane was born on December sixteenth of 1775 to George Austen who married Cassandra of the Leigh family. Together they had eight children and only two of them were girls. Mr. Austen was a Reverend of Steventon rectory. During Jane’s childhood, her father did many things to help the growing family financially. He did his best to teach the family himself and tried farming as an alternative method to gain money.

From Enheduanna to Jane Austen to Charlotte Bronte to J.K. Rowling. Woman have proved over and over again that the role of author and/or writer can suit females just as much as any man. Mansfield encouraged women to write and used herself as an example with her own writing to try to attract more female authors. Often, women are pictures as just people who birth babies, cook, clean, shopped and stayed around as house wives. Sometimes, they did not have a wide span of education. Even in the early 1900’s women didn’t often go to college, it wasn’t until the 1980’s that women began to attend college in equal numbers to men. Poet laureate Robert Southey said “Literature cannot be the business of a women’s life.” One of the key assumptions that Mansfield and other women modernists faced was the habit of presenting narrative fiction through male eyes and according to male values. Mansfield herself strived for everyone (not limited to just women) to do whatever they wanted. She encouraged people to break rules and branch out.
