Mr. Collin's Proposal
Ethos
1. Lady Catherine de Bourgh said he "must marry."
2. "[His] situation in life . . . are circumstances highly in [his] favor."
3. "I am persuaded that when sanctioned by your excellent parents . . . my proposals will not fail of being acceptable."
Pathos
1. "Modesty adds to your other perfections."
2. He knows she doesn't have a lot of money, but he will "never reproach on that score when [they] are married."
3. "You are uniformly charming!"
Logos
1. "A right thing for every clergyman to set the example of matrimony in his parish."
2. "It will add greatly to [his] happiness."
3. He is going to inherit their estate when their father dies, and he couldn't satisfy himself "without resolving to choose a wife from among his daughters."
My Paper
Ethos
1. Do some more research, get numbers as accurate as I can.
2. Say a little bit more about how I am a freshman, but still know stuff.
3. Become more knowledgable about politics myself. I know some, but there's always more to learn.
Pathos
1. Most if not all political issues apply to almost everyone.
2. We can change things if we're willing to compromise and be bipartisan.
3. Provide specific examples for BYU Students.
Logos
1. Focus on how to get involved.
2. Do more accurate research with credible sources.
3. When talking about politics, quotes from the founding fathers seem to get the point across.
I like how for paths in your paper you mentioned providing specific examples that relate to BYU students, I think that willl really help you keep your audience in mind.
ReplyDeleteGetting specific details from cridible sources will help you with logos and ethos, so if you do that your paper should turn out well. I like your topic and if you can make it relate to college students, it will be great.
