Building upon the analytical skills learned in the previous unit, the rhetorical analysis asks students to consider the persuasive elements or structural features used to create or enhance textual meaning. In other words, this assignment shifts the analytical gaze away from textual interpretation and toward the rhetorical conventions that help to make meaning. In this essay, students will analyze how two different authors (writing on the same topic) appeal to ethos (values), pathos (emotion), and logos (logic). You will compare and contrast the authors' opposing views. Who does a better job and why? What rhetorical devices / argumentative appeals does each author successfully (or unsuccessfully) use? This essay will allow you to decide which author used the best "ethos" argument, which author used the best "pathos" argument, etc. Additionally, this essay will help you consider what makes a successful and/or unsuccessful argument when you work on your Unit 4 essay.
