Pathos, mostly emotional impact on a reader, is clearly illustrated in the advertisement as through the picture of a hand holding a cigarette and the shadow of that hand is the shadow of a gun.

Although the purpose is evident to the author, the reader may find difficulty determining what that purpose is.

I think what I have learned most about the needs to support claims with research and validating them with proper citation is that you need to adopt a skeptical attitude toward all knowledge claims. If you want to use a source you need to make sure that it is credible you should also be able to screen sources much more quickly by testing them against your argument that is being made. Also if one has opinions to support or challenge a position, you will need to know which sources can be used. Ethos, pathos, and logos are important techniques to use and learn when trying to state an argument. I have learned the most that Pathos is an appeal to the reader’s emotions.

I used anaphoras, rhetorical questions, devices, analogies, and epigraphs to express the ethos, pathos, and logos in my speech. I wrote with anaphoras to get the point of America failing over and over again across to the reader. This gets the reader emotional and upset about America’s choices made, which makes the above pathos. I used rhetorical questioning to make the audience really think about the topic and to dissect all of the information given before the question. These form a light bulb in the audience’s head and again, make them think harder.

People have been persuading one another for thousands of years, they have been using three different types of appeals, ethos, pathos and logos. Over the thousands of years people have realized the easiest appeal to use is pathos: appealing to one’s emotions.

Five Cognate Strategies from the Three Rhetorical Elements I have chosen five of the nine cognate strategies to dissect and represent in this assignment. In my consideration of the available topics, I strove to include cognate strategies from each of the rhetorical elements (logos, ethos, and pathos). My emphasis strongly leans toward logos (logic), thus all three logos-related cognate strategies are represented here (clarity, conciseness, arrangement), followed by an ethos(ethics)-related cognate strategy (reference) and a pathos(emotional appeal)-related cognate strategy (tone). First Cognate Strategy: Clarity Clarity, as a cognate strategy, is one of the three logos (logic) strategies which refers to clear and simple phrasing to foster understanding in the reader.
