Visual rhetoric

The Jimmy V speech at the 19.. Espy awards is one of the most rhetorical appeal driven speech I have ever heard. As jimmy V walked off the stage after his twelve minuet speech he concluded by saying, “Cancer can take away all my physical abilities. It cannot touch my mind, it cannot touch my heart and it cannot touch my soul. And those three things are going to carry on forever.” Jimmy V argues that if you think, love, and laugh we will live full happy days. He targets the audience by using…

is an example of pathos because the line is based mostly on emotion or the sympathy and emotion in the audience.This is important to know because as his speech progresses he uses a lot of rhetoric, such as pathos and ethos. Going on he says “ I come to bury Caesar not to praise him” (3.2.121), Antony uses rhetoric and genuine reminders to ultimately portray Caesar in such a positive light so that the crowd enrages at the conspirators. Before…

Starting off, I had a really fun experience preparing for and constructing my Informative speech. The format of the speech is great because it lets the students select a topic that they are interested in and allows them to talk about a topic they are passionate about. I choose the topic of Landsmeer Golf Club because it was interesting for me to gain even more knowledge on a topic that I was familiar with. When preparing for my speech, I started off making a rough draft outline, and also making…

concluding statement was in the speech, but the speaker did not summarize all the points that she presented. The speaker did make good eye contacts with the audience; however, there were few filler words. Furthermore, she used her visual aids very well because her visual aids were interesting and were presented at a good timing. Also, her speech was done in given amount of time. Overall, I would give this speaker a grade of 19 because of the missing summary parts of some main points an few…

In the speech by Sitting Bull, he uses a plethora of rhetorical devices to argue his points to his fellow Native American brethren. The three main rhetorical devices he uses in the excerpt are metaphors, personification and compound sentences. One of the main rhetorical devices present in this piece are metaphors. One example of the usage of metaphors would be when Sitting Bull exclaims, "the love of possessions is a disease in them." By this, he means that the white men have becoming…

Donald, Excellent topic! I felt this sentence was so powerful: “We are in the [throes] of an opioid epidemic[,] and yet we have no qualms pumping children full of stimulants on a daily basis.” I agree completely with that assertion. I think your tentative thesis was well thought out. I did notice an unfinished sentence at the end though… “The APA and AMA should come to a decision on this matter and not make drugs the.” I also thought your outline was great and had very informative material. I…

1. In my opinion, if you want your audience to stay focused on your presentation than theater theory should take top priority when preparing. If a meeting or presentation has dim lights and low tone atmosphere, the audience will appear lethargic and uninterested. If you take that same meeting or presentation with bright lights and loud music the audience will be the complete opposite and present high energy and enthusiasm. If the presenter shows passion and excitement the audience will adhere…

I eliminated “head hopping,” and endeavored to structure the novel in a limited third person point of view through the experience of novel’s main character William Blake. I also made a concerted effort to improve characterization by adding dimension to each of the characters through…
