4. Rhetorical Devices A rhetorical device uses words in a certain way to convey meaning or to persuade. It can also be a technique to evoke interest and emotion on the part of the reader or audience. Rhetorical Appeals: the three main avenues by which people are persuaded: Logos: Strategy of reason, logic, or facts. Any type of argument which appeals to someone’s rational side is appealing to logos. Ethos: Strategy of credibility, authority, or character. Appeals to ethos demonstrate the author’s trustworthiness, expertise and honesty and attempt to put the author in a more positive light to the audience. Pathos: Strategy of emotions and affect (the way the piece makes us feel). Pathos appeals to an audience’s sense of anger, sorrow, pity, or excitement.

5. Example of Diary Written from Reverend Parris’ Perspective Dear Diary, My daughter, Betty, did not wake up this morning and I am worried that she might be bewitched. I found Betty, Abigail, and many other girls from the village dancing in the forest early this morning. Abigail told me that they were only having fun, but I saw that they were dancing around a cauldron and they were boiling something in it, perhaps a toad. This leads me to believe that they may have been communicating with the Devil. I do not want to believe that my daughter and niece are involved in witchcraft, but if they are, I am in trouble. Many villagers in Salem already seem to have a problem with me and if they find out that my own family is involved with the Devil, my enemies can use this information against me to throw me out of power. I like being in charge here and this could ruin me. I hope that Betty wakes up soon.
