Look at your highlighting and the notes you made in your notebook. How does Stanton use logos, ethos, and pathos in the excerpt? Plato
Stanton makes appeals to the statesmen’s sense of
ambition when she suggests that​
they would like see their “names on the page of history”
In an extended metaphor, Stanton compares slavery to
war to logically demonstrate why​
peace activists should support abolition.
Stanton uses old-fashioned phrases (even for 1850), such as “ye who have labored long” and “yea, they are a part of,” which would remind her largely Christian audience of biblical language. This strategy would help build her ethos.
