Relevance of Antigone Sympathy for Antigone and Haemon Woman with audacity to challenge a male dominated world Vindictiveness of the King Right of a human being to dispute an unjust law Broader political allegory of Sophocles

Sophocles’ Characterisation Chorus – Cautious, indecisive, discreet Guard – More courage and less wisdom Ismene – Passive and obedient Haemon – Importance of Reasoning Antigone – Uncompromising Realist Creon – Petty and intolerant

Aristotle’s Poetics Forms of Art – Epic Poetry, Tragedy, Comedy, etc. Imitation as an essential human quality Imitation of reality differing in: Means Object Manner

Pathos Pathos appeals rely on emotions and feelings to persuade the audience They are often direct, simple, and very powerful

Logos “Logos appeals” rely on the audience’s intelligence to persuade them. Education causes audiences to be more skeptical of emotional arguments and more receptive to logos

Ethos Ethos is a person’s credibility with a given audience. It can mean sincerity, authority, expertise, faithful, or any adjective that describes someone you can trust to do the right thing.

What is rhetoric? Aristotle defines rhetoric as The faculty or ability to discover all available means of persuasion in a given situation. Rhetoric is the counterpart of “dialectic,” a type of formal reasoning that leads to truth. Rhetoric is what allows us to communicate these truths.
