Task 2: analyze the sample text for both rhetorical devices and writing strategies
Rhetorical devices
Logos has been brought out at the time when the writer makes up their mind to watch political
control because of the value they have for it. This brings out a tug of war between what has value
to the writer and what they have loved doing throughout their life (Ly-Le, 2014).
Pathos is an appeal to emotion that comes up when a political times encroach, the music that has
been loved by the writer throughout their life(Ly-Le, 2014). An emotional appeal especially to
love has been used.
Kairos is used as an appeal to time specifically when political times encroach on the music the
writer has loved throughout their time while they are watching corporate control. It signifies that
time is running and what they have loved will soon be on (Ly-Le, 2014).
