The End of Rhetorical Analysis

As a reminder, the final deadline for the Lucy logs has been extended to Tuesday, December 6, at 2:30 p.m. Specific reminders are in a previous blog.

1: We watched/listened to/annotated the transcripts for Queen Elizabeth II's statement on Princess Diana's sudden death and Earl Spencer's eulogy for his late sister.

You were then assigned one of the speeches, in which you will analyze the syntax, diction, tone, pathos, logos, and ethos for the given speech. Write down evidence from the text and then analyze its purpose. Matt, you will need to complete the analysis of those 6 elements for the Earl Spencer speech.

3 & 7: You shared your Democratic Debate fallacies with the class. That's all time permitted for us to do. Tomorrow, we will finish rhetorical analysis and start MC strategies.
