BRUTUS V. ANTONY
• We’ll read Brutus’s speech together.• Listen as I model voice inflection. You will be
using voice inflection for Antony’s speech today.• Read Antony’s speech on your own.
LEARNING TARGETS
1. I can label and quote emotions that Antony plays up in his funeral oration.
2. I can identify repetition, ethos and pathos in Antony’s funeral speech.
3. I can analyze how Antony uses repetition, ethos and pathos to manipulate the crowd.
READING WITH EXPRESSION
• The cat got away.• Angry• Scared• Bored• Sad• Amused• What did students do to their voices to convey
the different expressions?
READING WITH EXPRESSIONS
• A great way to practice reading with expression is choral reading. • Choral reading is when many students read the
same lines together. • The strong readers in the group provide a model
of correct pacing, tone, and voice for the struggling readers. • In choral reading, students will need to speak
slowly and enunciate words clearly.
READING WITH EXPRESSIONS
• Divide class into 7 groups• Working within your groups, students should
determine the emotion Antony feels (or pretends to feel) and the appropriate expression to use.• Please answer the 4 questions from the handout
in your journal. Remember to put 15 Oct. 2013 on the first line!• Reminder of the rhetorical appeals: ethos, pathos
and repetition. • Underline words you would like to emphasize and
stress in your own delivery of the speech.
READING WITH EXPRESSIONS
• Practice, practice, practice!• We will have a class competition to see which
group reads with the most appropriate and best emotional inflection of the voice!• All group members must perform in the choral
reading of your assigned lines.
JOURNALS
• Please put today’s date on the first line: • 15 Oct. 2013• Label this Journal: “Strategies for Ethos,
Pathos and Logos”
LOGOS:DEFINITION
• Logos• An appeal to logic and reason• Example:
• School uniforms should be required because it would then be easier for staff to recognize intruders.
LOGOS
Strategies• Evidence• Examples and illustrations• Facts, statistics• Precedents, laws
• Organization• Process• Comparison/contrast• Division/classification• Cause/effect• Definition, description
PATHOS:DEFINITION
• Pathos• An appeal to emotional reaction• Example:
• School uniforms should be required because it alleviates students’ fear of looking different and being picked on because of their clothes.
• Suzy Jo McGuillicutty retells the story of when she was made fun of and beaten up because she wore the same blouse two days in a row. Sobbing, she conjures up painful memories of not fitting in.
PATHOS
• Strategies• Inspiring feeling/empathy/sympathy• Anger, pride, guilt, love, shame, hope, etc.
• Awareness of opposition• Awareness of audience's cultural and
emotional background • Race, age, sex, physical characteristics, habits• Economic or educational level• Religious or political affiliation• Ethnicity, country of birth, citizenship, location
• Awareness of audience concerns• Needs, values, beliefs of groups audience
belongs to
ETHOS:DEFINITION
• Ethos• An appeal based on your own credibility.• Example:
• In my own observations as a student teacher at Waldo Middle School in Salem, Oregon, I discovered that on “uniform days,” behavior referrals decreased to nearly none, whereas on “dress free days”, referrals spiked to as much as ten times as many.
ETHOS
• Strategies• Credibility (common sense)• Familiarity with subject• Awareness of broad perspective
• Character (virtue)• Respect others' values• Value welfare of others• Show integrity, trustworthiness, open-
mindedness
• Confidence (good will)• Show self-understanding• Understand audience’s needs• Treat audience as equal
AS WE PROCEED…
• Evaluate Brutus and Anthony’s funeral speeches• Which methods of persuasion do they use?• Logos, pathos, ethos? • Within these methods, what rhetorical/literary devices are
used to support their arguments• Verbal Irony: speaker says one thing but means the exact
opposite • Rhetorical Questions: a question asked to produce an effect, not
to elicit a response• Connotation: an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to
its literal meaning• Repetition: repeating a word or phrase to produce an effect
