 Background: Aristotle on Persuasive Rhetoric "Accordingly all men make use, more or less, of both; for to a certain extent all men attempt to discuss statements and to maintain them, to defend themselves and to attack others.Ordinary people do this either at random or through practice and from acquired habit. Both ways being possible, the subject can plainly be handled systematically, for it is possible to inquire the reason why some speakers succeed through practice and others spontaneously; and every one will at once agree that such an inquiry is the function of an art."Peruse Historical Speeches from The Masters of Oration: 35 Greatest Speeches of all Time.

Peruse the speeches... Decide which speech you feel compelled to listen , read and respond to. CHOOSE ONE SPEECH and ACTIVELY READ THE SPEECH!  TAKE NOTES WHILE YOU LISTEN/ READ THE SPEECH (PRINT IT OUT IF YOU ARE READING IT). 

Some Speeches have options to LISTEN.. if Your chosen speech does not have that option you can always look for it on you tube. There are many historical speeches on you tube. 

PART II Answer the following questions based on an analysis of the speech you have chosen. Post your response in 3-4 paragraphs 

Q: Establish one primary reason for choosing this particular speech.Explore the purpose of the speaker. Purpose of the speech? What is the thesis (main idea)? Who did it impact and why?Create an analysis that discusses how the speech impacted the hearts and minds of the audience. Was the speech persuasive? Did you feel like you would defend one side over another? Explain the value of two rhetorical skills (speaking skills) we learned in class and how did the orator use them? What did you like about the speech and why?

I suggest you type up your response in WORD first before publishing your response on our class blog. 

Be sure to proofread for grammar and spelling . Publish your response as a comment (see the white box and my example ) on this post. Be sure you click on the post title and scroll down .. you will see a white box waiting for you.
