Essay / Rhetorical Analysis of Logos - 1014
By writing about my personal experience, stronger emotional connections can be created since the author has experienced what is discussed in the composition. These memories began to develop when I was little and more have since been created on every trip. Pathos focuses its attention on the beliefs and values of the target audience. Describing how the value of family time influenced the decision to make continued trips to Florida, where my “happiest memories” were made, clearly depicts pathos. The tone is euphoric and nostalgic as it describes experiences I have had with my family that will last my entire life. I then explained that I wanted my children to take the same trips. This further reinforces the public appeal of how important memories are to a person once created. The images and descriptive details add to the emotional connection I wanted the audience to feel.
