    In "A Good Man Down," by Lee Jenkins, the emotional appeal to pathos clearly stands out with the loss of this town from the tornado, to the loss of the man that held the town together. To me, the strongest moments in Jenkins' writing was when he used logos to establish a clear, reasonable, logical progression of his ideas based around the theme, "the field, and what the football field stood for to the town. In a small town of 1,900, people know each other and knew each other well. Then you have people like Ed Thomas who was a leader on and off the field. People observed his leadership and saw his character and his love for the game and what he did to be successful as a coach, even down to the smallest detail of caring for "the field."…

Garner exposed the ignorant members within Daniel’s community who noticed his deficient health, “People who noticed the boy’s afflictions—monitored them, in some cases—included neighbours, tradesmen, social workers, teachers, friends, doctors, nurses, police, a photographer. Over these moths, Daniel was seen by twenty-one professionals.”…

    Hawethorne impeccably executes the utilization of language to represent Hester Prynne's outlook on not only her own existence, but that of other woman as well through the use of tone and appeal to pathos. Analyzing the passage, Hawethorne's tone, as reflected by Hester, becomes very evident quite quickly allows his views to come across puissantly to the reader; his tone not only engages the audience, but also allows them to ponder about the subject themselves. Broadly speaking, the author's tone is recalcitrant, and this is clearly displayed through Hester's own idea about the existence of women. Take the question,"Was existence worth accepting, even to the happiest among them?", as a perfect example of not accepting society's common rule…

    The author of the written passage, “The Horizontal World”, Debra Marquart utilizes the rhetorical strategies of bleak imagery and ethos to initially encourage harmful stereotypes of the upper Midwest and later prove that region, where she grew up in, is in fact special.

Given her credibility as a midwesterner herself, being acquainted with all…

With such a strong rhetorical technique as this, Salinger appeals to the empathy of the audience and creates a nearly universal cult-following for Holden. Although undeservingly idealized, Holden’s struggle to find meaning and happiness in this passage suggests a greater, underlying aspect throughout…
