    Classical argumentation is based on Aristotle's view of public speaking, which consisted of logos (ability to argue the subject), ethos (credibility of the speaker), and pathos (involvement of the audience). Logos refers to factual appeals, ethos to value appeals, and pathos to emotional appeals. While good factual arguments are usually enough, appeals to values and emotions can help bring attention to issues, provide motivation, and stimulate thought, making appeals to all three types of arguments essential for a successful presentation.

    LOGOS, ETHOS, PATHOS

    Classical argumentation is based on Aristotles view


    on public speaking, which consisted of three
    elements:
    Logos, the ability to argue on the subject
    Ethos, the credibility of the speaker
    Pathos, involvement of the audience

    Logos, ethos and pathos also refer to the type of


    arguments writers/speakers use to convince their
    audience:
    Logos, appeals to facts
    Ethos, appeals to values
    Pathos, appeals to emotions
    Good factual appeals (logos) is usually enough to
    convince an audience that your factual arguments
    are sound. But even good arguments may not be
    enough. The appeal to values (ethos) and emotions
    (pathos) may provide a useful role in bringing our
    attention to an issue, providing motive for actions,
    or stimulating thought. Appeals to all three types of
    arguments are absolutely essential to the success of
    your argument.
