"The Crisis"

Read the following essay by Thomas Paine and identify the persuasive appeals and rhetorical devices on your study guide.  BE PREPARED FOR TOMORROW WITH SEVERAL EXAMPLES FOR EACH SECTION TO RECEIVE CREDIT!

T-PAINE'S "THE CRISIS"

Your examples in each box can be direct quotations (in part or full) or simple summaries of a section. FOR EXAMPLE, under "Pathos," you can briefly describe the child analogy he gives about the man he sees outside the pub but under "Antithesis" you can easily quote "I call not upon a few but on all," perhaps underlining or italicizing the opposing images. SO, I just gave you two.

This will be on the midterm, and if we do not have a significant number of you tomorrow who have completed it, we will not go over it and you will be responsible for its information on your own. AKA DO YOUR HOMEWORK!
