What is Rhetoric?

Understanding writers and the reasons behind the writing is an essential tool.  Aristotle’s theory of Ethos, Pathos, and Logos helps everyone grasp the true meanings of writings.  Through credibility, appeals to the audience, and the overall subject, readers and even writers can gain an abundance of understanding of the ways of persuasion.  Persuasion is a powerful tool because it can essentially win over one’s opinion, influence one’s style, and overall change one’s perspective or views on a specific topic.  If you can grasp these techniques, you are for sure to advance in your writings!
