What is rhetoric?

​​Rhetoric---the art of effective or persuasive speaking or writing, especially the use of figures of speech and other compositional techniques.

​Logos, or the appeal to logic, means to appeal to the audiences' sense of reason or logic. To use logos, the author makes clear, logical connections between ideas, and includes the use of facts and statistics.

​LOGOS

​Pathos appeals to the emotions and ideals of the audience and elicits feelings that already reside in them.

Think about all of those "pathy" words.....

empathy
apathy

​PATHOS

​Ethos, an ancient Greek word meaning “character,” is a rhetorical or written technique that appeals to an audience or reader's ethics. Authors achieve ethos in their writing by demonstrating that they are a trustworthy source of accurate information.
