I’m just beginning to look over your drafts now, so I will post any advice later as another post, but I thought I would get this up now.

Here are our notes from the board today, which are essentially a review of the devices.  Focus on your papers; comment if you have any questions.image image Oh!  Here is the official website, which features the trailer and such.  (Note the awards listed; what do they do for the argument?  Anything?  Keep authority in mind.)

    is it okay if we just cover ethos pathos and logos in our paper? there are so many different rhetorical devices, i wasnt sure which ones to use.

    Certainly, but it is not as complicated as you might think. The rhetorical devices we went over in class each support (for our purposes) one of the three appeals. As you focus on E,P, & L in your paper you might be able to label a device or two.
