The Tones Of Rhetoric Analysis

Superior Essays
People aways say don 't judge a book by its cover, but if you think about it book covers are very important. Book covers need to be intriguing to the reader to make the reader want to read the book. Throughout all of my schooling have found that most of the books I need to read have horrible covers. You have to ask yourself, Will I even read this book? Or does this cover make me what to read this book? I believe that when you buy something you have to have a personal connection to enjoy it fully. Think about it, we do our best to make a great first impression with people. For book covers it 's exactly the same. If a cover doesn 't make a good first impression on the reader first glance, its over and that book won’t be read unless it is in a forced manner. The most important …show more content…
The title of my book is “The Tone of Rhetoric” in relation with music. In my cover i bring in real life examples in a simple but, unique way. It shows the reader enough information without overloading her mind and eyes. I used colorful images to make the reader happy and excited to open the book. Since Ethos means credibility I chose a picture of an award from the Grammys, award as big as the Grammys that gives an artist a lot of credibility with his or her peers and fans. Pathos means emotion, so I decided to insert an emotional song lyric, when you read this lyric it will make you think and get emotional. Lastly, logos means logic so I chose to put an image of music on a staff because reading music on a page is a big part of the logistics of becoming a musician. Some don 't use or develop musical theory skills, but even if they don 't personally use it they will have a lead sheet or some sort of theory in front of them and one time or anther. The Tones of Rhetoric,” cover will make the reader be excited to open my book, because from the cover Ethos, pathos, and logos will show strong and be very inviting to the

    The article “Miscalculation on Visas Disrupts Lives of Highly Skilled Immigrants” (2015), by Julia Preston, states the State Department and Homeland Security allowed the department to give anticipating immigrants news of them being able to take the next step to obtain a green card. The author provides background information about the situation, along with reasons as to why the incident occurred, and its impact on immigrants. Preston attempts to inform about the episode and provide an explanation to the immigrants involved, through the use of rhetorical appeals. Preston establishes ethos before the article starts, as she is a reporter of a reputable newspaper, which gives her credibility. She starts off her article powerfully by providing context for those who are unaware of the situation; in the beginning of September, the State Department told thousands of highly skilled legal immigrants that they “would be able to advance early to the next step: filing a formal application.”…

    As an educator and member of the Newark community, I would like to express my opinion on the need for police reform in Newark. When you came into office your platform was heavy with rhetoric to reform the police culture and practices of the Newark Police Department. I would wholeheartedly agree with you but to date, I have not seen many changes. I understand that this is a very large issue to tackle with many moving parts and pieces but I believe that the police culture can only begin to change only when police officers are stakeholders in our community.…

    Every individual person in the modern world is innately capable of performing similar duties as everyone else, yet people differ immensely in cultures and beliefs. The levels of advancement and innovation are also unmistakably diverse, leading to certain societies dominating and seizing control over others. Recognizing the causes of these economic and social dissimilarities is crucial in analyzing and attempting to find an approach in dealing with world conflicts. Jared Diamond, an ornithologist, was posed a seemingly simple but very complex question by a local politician named Yali.

    The retelling of the first accounts of European contact seemingly always mark the beginning of a “civilized” America while portraying the Native population as having been rescued from a “savage” lifestyle. The lack of formal evidence from the Aboriginal side of the story, in the form of letters and writings, makes it hard to deicer what the truth actually is which leads us to believe that the evidence that does exist, is the truth. In the quest for the big picture, Neil Salisbury, Ramsay Cook and Cornelius Jaenen have analyzed different types of evidence for the Aboriginal side to reveal that the Native population was in fact flourishing well before contact. Salisbury uses archeological evidence to show long standing exchange networks and social…

Each article produces an individual view to the subject, including different tones and opinions, while maintaining objectivity and using rhetoric to convey their ideas. With this specific language, the authors are able to portray their view on the president’s plan in such a way that draws the reader in and allows them to understand different points of view and beliefs on President Obama’s congressional actions. The first article “The Constitutional Authority for Executive Orders on Immigration Is Clear” by Eric Posner sets a clear attack towards opposing…

    A little disclaimer: I am not good in reflecting, and putting into words my supposed reflection and reactions about ideas or life in general. First of all, how do I reflect or react about a book that has a mutated green apple—assuming it is mutated, as its insides are that of an orange—for its cover? Ultimately, I judge books (literally books, not people) by its cover. The cover of Freakonomics looks quite complicated to me no matter how simple it looked, and led me to the conclusion that the book probably is not my cup of tea (as if I like tea and books in the first place).…
