New Assignment on No Red Ink and Posted in Classroom

Due: 12/04 9:16 AM

Marc Anthony's Speech - Analysis in Two Parts - Due 12/04 (B) and 12/05 (A)

Marc Anthony's Speech - Analysis in Two Parts

Part One: Here is Marc Anthony's Complete Speech CLICK

1. Completely annotate Marc Anthony's speech for Logos, Pathos, and Ethos (yellow, pink, green)

2. Complete the LPE Chart from your handout.  REMEMBER, you must always connect device to meaning, so your sample answers should integrate your analysis with effective quotes as support. 

For instance:

Ethos
Logos
Pathos
1. Marc Anthony first establishes his credibility with the audience by addressing them as “Friends, Romans, and Countrymen.” His purpose is to suggest that he is not only their friend, but also that he is their friend.




 

Part Two:

1.Using your Rhetorical Terms handout as a guide identify ALL the devices  Marc Anthony uses to make his argument. Please work through the entire speech with your partners. As you identify the device (like parallelism) remember to say what effect it has/is supposed to have on the audience. Please use the COMPLETE Marc Anthony speech handout for this activity. (annotate LPE starting with 1664 as you have already completed the prior section). If you run out of space, use binder paper.


2. As you annotate the text, highlight and underline using the following pattern. 

 

Logos - yellow highlighter      Pathos - pink highlighter    Ethos - green highlighter

 

Antithesis - Black pen underline     Irony - Red underline    Sarcasm - double red underline    

 

Rhetorical Questions -  red RQ and [red brackets]

 

Repetition -  Double black underline

 

Personification, Simile, Metaphor, Hyperbole, Understatement - Write 1st initial and blue highlight text

 

Paradox -  Blue underline    

Apostrophe -  double blue underline     

Parallelism - orange highlight
