Aristotle's 3 modes of persuasion: Pathos, Logos, Ethos

·        Pathos – represents an appeal to the audience’s emotions – means suffering or experience

·        Logos - putting the hearer into a certain frame of mind - all three


             Means logic - factual, academic situations, 
                                  objective - absence of emotion


                           strong way to motivate people
                           strongest and easiest way of speech



                         academic - situation, politics

·        Ethos - expertise and knowledge
        \/
    Speaker - power of the speaker - credibility - experience (own)

Choose a speech and try to figure out which of the three is the predominant type of persuasion. Do this by first describing what the speaker is trying to persuade of their audience.

I believe that Alpachino’s speech – inch by inch – is a representation of logos as it makes the listener become drawn in and believes that they can do it.
