  5. The 3 Appeals of rhetorical argument • According to the Ancient Greeks, there are three different ways to make an effective argument. Aristotle coined these three terms: Pathos Ethos Logos

  6. Definitions - Pathos • Pathos – an emotional appeal • Focused on audience’s needs, values, and emotions • Examples include personal stories that humanize an issue, make it seem more realistic, or are more moving.

  7. Definitions - Ethos • Ethos – an ethical appeal • Based on how reliable the writer/speaker is, or on their character • How this is done: • Strong sources • Acknowledging the opposition and/or your audience accurately • If relevant, give personal information as evidence • Organization and well written/spoken

  8. Definitions - LOGos • Logos – the logical appeal • Relies on sound reason • Inductive reasoning – conclusions from facts, a lot of evidence, larger population • Deductive reasoning – starts general and gets specific, still has a lot of evidence • Must be careful not to have issues in the logic like making a comment without enough evidence, etc.
