Rhetorical Situation: Exigence This is simply the problem or event causing you to write. Example: you snuck out of the house, so Mom took away your phone and your keys. Wow! That sucks!!
Rhetorical Situation: Audience To write effectively, you MUST consider your audience…their age, gender, educational level, state of emotion, beliefs, needs, experiences, biases, on and on…. In this case, your audience is your parent(s).
Rhetorical Situation: Purpose This is your desired outcome. What do you want your audience to do, feel, believe, etc. after they’ve read your writing? For our example, your purpose is to have your privileges reinstated.
Appeals: Logos • Supporting your argument using logical reasoning, concrete examples, data, cause & effect statements, comparisons & analogies, etc. • “I now know the consequences of sneaking out, so I will not do it again. ” • “You are wasting money each week paying insurance on my car to sit in the driveway. ” • “You can’t get ahold of me quickly without my phone. ”
Appeals: Logos The central appeal of any strong argument must be logical.
Appeals: Ethos • Using YOUR CREDIBILITY to convince your audience; your good reputation, honor, education, experience, dependability, etc • What is it about you that makes your audience believe your argument? • “Mom, you know I have never done anything like this before, and I have never lied to you. ”
Appeals: Ethos • Using YOUR CREDIBILITY
Appeals: Pathos • An attempt to persuade the reader through their emotions • fear, love, pride, shame, pity, etc. are strong motivators • “You never trust me. I try and try to please you, but you never give me a second chance!”
