Utilizing rhetorical devices such as formal diction, allusion, and repetition, Abraham Lincoln’s “The Gettysburg Address” successfully expresses the importance of coming together as a nation during the Civil War. Lincoln portrays himself professionally and speaks to his audience in a strong, firm manner by using formal diction. Instead of making his speech casual and more personal, in a sense, the author makes sure that his words are to be heard and respected by using the word choice he did. For example, in the thirds paragraph, Lincoln talks about the soldiers stating, “It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have this far so nobly advanced.” The specific word choice
Between the two speeches given by Brutus and Marc Antony, Antony had the stronger speech. This is due to his effective use of the rhetorical devices ethos, pathos and logos, but most importantly his use of logos. Antony was the second to speak therefore being able to rebuttal most of what Brutus said. Antony uses logos very effectively when stating the actions of Caesar. “He hath brought many captives home to Rome whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.”
Both Brutus and Antony had great speeches, however each one had a different style of how it was presented, and its effectiveness. They each used logos, ethos, and pathos differently, as well as the fallacies that they used.
Both speeches also use persuasion to convince their audience of their point of view. While Brutus persuades his audience that killing Caesar was the right thing to do, Mark Antony persuades his audience that Caesar didn't deserve to die and that the killers are the real enemy. Both speeches also use repetition. Brutus uses repetition, speaking
Persuasion is a big part of the speeches and there is a lot of jelousy and greed. Greed leads people to jelousy and that is never a good thing to happen. Jelousy can lead people to do things they usually wouldn’t do. Persuasion is used a lot to convince people to believe in what they are saying. Although Brutus used a lot of good reasonings involving pathos, Antony delivers the more effective speech because he knew Caesar more and he was much closer to him
Brutus is the more persuasive person of Antony and him and was able to get his point across and handle the commoner’s feelings without getting them furious at himself. Brutus was able to get everything he needed done in a time were the commoners did not have time to think and was able to get out that they needed to go after the true enemies. He also used more Ethos, Pathos, and logos than Antony so Brutus is the most
Brutus and Antony both give speeches at Julius Caesar's funeral. Both men use a variety of ethos, pathos and logos as well. Although both men have very good points, it is clear Antony's speech is more persuasive because he uses ethos, pathos, and logos to appeal to the crowd more than Brutus does. Antony's speech is also more efficiet because he shows emotion and sympathy for the plebeians this makes the plebeians feel as if Antony is one of them and understands how they feel.
Antony is more persuasive than Brutus, because he is more personal to the people. Antony starts off his speech with being personal to the people with saying, “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend
Moments before Julius Caesar was to be crowned the king of Rome he was brutally murdered by Brutus and other conspirators. Brutus stepped forward to make a speech about Caesar’s death and Marc Antony, Caesar’s best friend, also made a speech about it. Brutus’s speech used a lot of ethos and logos meaning he used logic and appealed to the citizens beliefs and how their economy functioned. He spoke about how much he loved Caesar and how he only killed him to show that having a king in Rome would only worsen society and he would turn against his people to make them his slaves.

A revelation is when God shows himself to believers. A revelation can be categorised as either a general revelation or a special revelation. A general revelation is when God makes himself known through ordinary, common human experiences, for example experiencing God through prayer and worship. A special revelation is when God makes himself known through direct personal experience or an unusual specific event, an example of special revelation is enlightenment. Revelations may prove the existence of God in the eyes of a religious believer as for example, God is seen in the holy books of different religions, such as the Bible in Christianity, and this leads religious to believe this proves the existence of God as words in the book are believed
Thank you so much for having me today. Now, Brutus was a good friend, a loving husband, and probably would have been a noble father if he hadn’t thrown me into poverty the day I was born. He died having no children to his name, although that definitely wasn’t for lack of trying. I am Amilianus Caeruleus, the son of Marcus Brutus’s tenth mistress, if we don’t count his first wife, Claudia Pulchra, or any of his “foreign affairs”. In all seriousness, Marcus Brutus was a very honorable man.
Marcus Junius Brutus and Mark Antony both deliver speeches to justify the death of Julius Caesar in 44 BCE and both use Logos and Ethos to convince the Roman citizens to join their sides. Both sides deliver their speeches with vehemence and start by elucidating why Brutus killed Caesar to begin with, why Antony’s desire for revenge is justified, and what the future of Rome will be because of his death. Antony teases the citizens of Rome with the will of Caesar that he holds in hand and claims it will dishonor Brutus and the other conspirators and is also one of his vital uses of Ethos in his speech. Most of the citizens, if not all of them side with Antony and will most likely help him accede to a great title of power in the future and also betray Brutus because of what Antony has them believe, i.e. an ignoble assassin. Brutus and Antony 's speeches were both compelling, although Antony´s speech was more successful, but it is because he was able to manipulate the people of Rome with
