PERSUASIVE RHETORIC
Persuasion
So, I looked up the popular "got milk?" ads that I see in magazines all the time. The one below is one with the celebrity Hayden Panettiere...
Sure enough, all of the persuasive concepts were found in the ad.
Let’s see how it works
Ethos is "credibility...most professionals and leaders are assumed to be competent and trustworthy until they have acted otherwise." Since Hayden Panettiere is a celebrity, then
it makes the advertisement credible. People think, “If this fabulous person drinks milk, then it must be a good thing for me." Right away, people are going to look at the ad and know think that it is something significant or reliable or trustworthy.
ETHOS
Pathos could be found in different ways. The emotion in her face is very strong and confident, which kind of sets the mood for the ad. The first line of the text says, "You don't have to be a hero to feel invincible." we can explain pathos as "the emotion of the message. Drawing upon the emotional premises of certain words that construct a very moving message." Using certain words like hero and invincible gives the ad a strong, heroic emotional feel.
PATHOS
Logos is explained as "The logical message. It appeals to facts, figures, and experts."
The ad says that "Some studies suggest teens who choose to drink milk tend to be thinner.” This statement gives the ad a sense of professional/expert advice.
LOGOS
Cuz it’s logical to understand logic. Right?
1. Logic requires listening2. Teenagers in Ms Levine’s 10th grade class
have ears3. Therefore, the teenagers in Ms. Levine’s
10th grade class are logical.
Does that make sense?
LOGIC
Any Questions?
Using Logic, Logos, Ethos, Pathos, Propositions and Arguments, create the most convincing Persuasive Essay ever.
