I know that ethos, pathos and logos have become my favorite
buzzword terms in the last few weeks, but I really do think that those are the
best places to start when analyzing a speech. I have been particularly fond of
pathos as an analytic tool, but today I think logos is the more important
aspect of these speeches to the National Conventions by Clint Eastwood and Bill
Clinton. The credentials of these two speakers are impressive, but the unspoken
aspects they bring with them pack more of a punch.
My paper topic: An analysis of Bill Clinton and Clint
Eastwood’s speeches to the National Conventions with attention to the reasons
they were chosen to speak, the topics they addressed, the audiences they spoke
to and their individual rhetorical strategies.
Also, I am clearly the best at blogging. I did this assignment at 1 o'clock this afternoon and remembered that we needed to blog about it at 11:54. Student fail.
