Appreciation
“I want a better father” these words may be said by most of the children because of focusing on the imperfections of their fathers. One of the most charming commercials people could ever see represents the dissatisfaction from children toward their fathers; children most of the time focus on their father’s weak points. The ad that titled “Silence of Love” represents the real meaning of father’s sacrifices toward their children. True love always produces sacrifices that make life easier. On the other hand, children should admit their father’s fights to make a comfortable life for them. However, the advertiser builds a strong argument to attract the audience with emotional appeals by sending a hidden message to them through the

The advertiser of the commercial “Silence of love” attracted the audience to get their health insurance by using emotional appeals. First of all, the commercial started showing a deaf-mute father who was driving his daughter to the school on a bike; and the advertiser uses the bike to send a message to the viewers that the father was poor, at the same scene the daughter looked at her father angrily, but the advertiser makes the reason for that mysterious. After that, a girl in her class makes fun on her father “dump” because he was deaf. That was the beginning of the problem because dump’s daughter started to be ashamed of her father’s deafness. She began to think that her father has been better if he could listen to her problems, needs, hopes or even her fears. Moreover, her father became upset from her actions, but he still didn’t know the reason for her frustration. Maybe because he didn’t expect that the reason for his daughter's disappointment was his deafness. However, he decided to prepare a surprise birthday to tell her that he was born a deaf-mute father, but he is still the only person that loves her the most. Suddenly his daughter commits suicide as a result of her suffering. The father took his daughter to the hospital and begged the doctors to save her life and that was the purpose the advertiser, he wanted the audience to see, even her father has money to save his daughter’s life but he still didn’t have health insurance. Finally, her father sacrifices his soul by donating most of his blood to save his daughter life in a dramatic
In 102 Minutes, Chapter 7, authors Dwyer and Flynn use ethos, logos, and pathos to appeal to the readers’ consciences, minds and hearts regarding what happened to the people inside the Twin Towers on 9/11. Of particular interest are the following uses of the three appeals.
Many characters have hopes and dreams which they wish to accomplish. Of Mice and Men has two main characters that go through obstacles to get what they want. In the beginning it is George and Lennie running away trying to get a job. Once both George and Lennie have a job they try to accomplish their dreams. Unfortunately they both can't get their dreams to come true since lennie does the worst and George has to shoot Lennie. Steinbeck uses characterization, foreshadowing, and symbol as rhetorical strategies to make George's actions justified.
This advertisement features Pathos, because the little boy in the advertisement will probably make people feel guilty, because they spend a lot of money on unnecessary things and waste it, but this child says “Don’t I deserve a happy life?”, and this will probably make people from our society want to spend money to support this cause. This advertisement also features patriotism, because it suggests that purchasing this product will show the love, and support you have towards your country. This company makes people from America want to support this cause. It says in the advertisement,” Help stop child poverty in America”. This advertisement also features Transfer andWeasel Words because it uses positive words, and positive images to suggest that the product being sold is also positive.
In their advertisements, the St. Jude Children’s Hopsital Research Foundation packs their thirty second commercials with as many rhetorical appeals as possible. The purpose of these celebrity-endorsed commercials is to encourage viewers to donate to the foundation, and the producers have creatively inserted various rhetorical appeals in hopes to sway viewers to open their wallets. By using an immense amount of rhetorical appeal; including ethos, pathos, logos, and kairos, the St. Jude Children’s Hospital Research Foundation has successfully created an informative and heartfelt commercial that has inspired many to donate to medical research for children.
In Maxine Hong Kingston story, “No Name Woman,” the author told a story of her aunt who was punished for committing adultery and died in order to express her thought and spirit of revolt of the patriarchal oppression in the old Chinese society. My essay will analyze the rhetoric and the technique of using different narrators to represent the article and expound the significance of using those methods in the article.
I chose this word because the tone of the first chapter seems rather dark. We hear stories of the hopes with which the Puritans arrived in the new world; however, these hopes quickly turned dark because the Purtains found that the first buildings they needed to create were a prison, which alludes to the sins they committed; and a cemetery, which contradicts the new life they hoped to create for themselves.
(pg.292) “How dear, how soothing to man, arises the idea of God, peopling the lonely place, effacing the scars of our mistakes and disappointments! When we have broken our god of tradition and ceased from our god of rhetoric, then may God fire the heart with his presence.” There is a sharp contrast between a god of perception and the God of the universal over- soul. A god of perception is one defined by the senses or unstable, biased opinion and because of this is flawed like our senses. When analyzing Emerson’s “The Over- Soul” we must pay close attention to his rhetorical techniques because although we might not consciously see it, his rhetoric sways the audience reading his work in his favor. For example, in the preceding quote Emerson capitalization
...r”. This is very similar to our persuasion techniques in that we created a scenario and presented symptoms that would be relatable to a majority. The difference is that this ad appeals to a specific but common type of relationship in an attempt to create a stronger association between the viewer who would most likely be interested in the drug, which in this case, would be “problem boys and problematic mothers” (Singh). The ad draws more similarities to our group’s ad by depicting the pre- and post-treatment that results in a more engaged student, and in this campaign, a young boy who is raising his hand in class. The narrator is the mother whose vocal tone assumes satisfaction with the drug and its efficacy with her son’s ADHD disorder. Therefore it would be most appealing to the parents, while our advertisement appeals directly to the high school student.
It is safe to say that the box next to the “boring, monotone, never-ending lecture” has been checked off more than once. Without the use of rhetorical strategies, the world would be left with nothing but boring, uniform literature. This would leave readers feeling the same way one does after a bad lecture. Rhetorical devices not only open one’s imagination but also allows a reader to dig deep into a piece and come out with a better understanding of the author’s intentions. Ursula K. Le Guin’s “The Wife’s Story” is about a family that is going through a tough spot. However, though diction, imagery, pathos, and foreshadowing Guin reveals a deep truth about this family that the reader does not see coming.
Sherry Turkle’s article in The New York Times “The Flight From Conversation”, she disputes that we need to put down the technology and rehabilitate our ability to converse with other human beings because we are replacing deep relationships with actual people for casual encounters on technology. Turkle tries to convince young and middle age individuals who are so enthralled by the technology that they are losing the ability to communicate in a public setting. Sherry Turkle unsuccessfully persuades her audience to put down the technology and engage with others in public through her strong logos appeal that overpowers her weak logos and doesn’t reliably represent herself and her research.
Silent Spring is one of the most important books of the environmental movement. It was one of the first scientific books to talk about destruction of habitat by humans. As a result, one can imagine that Ms. Rachel Carson needed to be quite persuasive. How does she achieve this? In this excerpt from Silent Spring, Carson utilizes the rhetorical devices of hyperbole, understatement, and rhetorical questions to state the necessity of abolishing the practice of using poisons such as parathion. Carson starts out by using the symbiotic nature of hyperbole and understatement to paint the whole practice as dangerous and unnecessary. She further strengthens her argument by using rhetorical questions to make her readers see the ethical flaws and potential casualties caused by deadly pesticides.
“She wakes to the sound of breathing. The smaller children lie tangled beside her, their chests rising and falling under winter coats and wool blankets. A few feet away, their mother and father sleep near the mop bucket they use as a toilet. Two other children share a mattress by the rotting wall where the mice live, opposite the baby, whose crib is warmed by a hair dryer perched on a milk crate.” (Elliot, pg.1) Dasini, an 11 year old child, lives a arduous life with her family in the projects outside New York City. The article, Invisible Child, written by Andrea Elliott, successfully portrays the difficulties Dasini and her family endure on a daily basis.
The subject of death is one that many have trouble talking about, but Virginia Woolf provides her ideas in her narration The Death of the Moth. The moth is used as a metaphor to depict the constant battle between life and death, as well as Woolf’s struggle with chronic depression. Her use of pathos and personification of the moth helps readers develop an emotional connection and twists them to feel a certain way. Her intentional use of often awkward punctuation forces readers to take a step back and think about what they just read. Overall, Woolf uses these techniques to give her opinion on existence in general, and reminds readers that death is a part of life.
Utilizing case of demonstrating how it can rationally influence a woman for a lifetime because of the certainty of required a moms care and love. Likewise demonstrating how it influences a child’s way in turning into a mother themselves. I agree with the author and his points throughout the article, demonstrating a motherless child is obscure of the untrue love that is originated from men, in both the period of the composed play furthermore present. The article and composed play successfully go together hand in hand as an inseparable unit demonstrating points of interest on how it is ideal to have a mother in a child’s
The picture of the advertisement is very moving itself.The very noticeable pitch dark background denotes terror,misery and despair giving us the idea of how appalling the situation is.The young boy’s depressed and innocent expression adds to the dreadful image and makes it’s viewers emotional.We can clearly see a black eye on his face showing he is a victim himself and this injury focuses on the fact of how gruesome and painful it can be to be a victim of such abuse.In the middle in white text is written,”HE HAS HIS MOTHER’S EYES”.This is the main and the most highlighted part of this advertisement and the font size and bright color makes it more visible than any other text in the image.The line is presented in a sarcastic manner adding slight humor to the criticism of this issue.When we say someone has his mother’s eyes we mean that person’s eyes resemble that of his mothers’.In this case,the young boy not only inherits his mother’s looks but also the sufferings and hardships that his mother had to go through due to physical abuse.I thought the way this message was presented makes the argument even more compelling.The ugly truth hidden under this sarcasm hits the viewers the most as they realize how easily this damage can transfer from one person to another,in this case from a mother to her son.In a smaller text at the bottom right of the picture it says to “report abuse”.This shows civic engagement that as a responsible citizen we should raise our voices if we
