1. CHAPTER 10 Arrangement: Getting it Together By Kanani Naauao English 307 October 12, 2005

2. Two Processes of Arrangement Selecting arguments to be used Arranging them in an order that is clear and persuasive

3. Six Parts of Discourse Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation Narrative Partition Confirmation Refutation Peroration (Conclusion)

4. Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation There are 5 different cases the Rhetor may encounter:  Honorable  Difficult  Mean  Ambiguous  Obscure

5. Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation…Cases Honorable Has immediate support from the audience Difficult Audience is unsympathetic to rhetor or to issues Mean Audience regards the rhetor or the issue as unimportant or uninteresting

6. Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation…Cases Ambiguous Audience is unsure about what is at issue; or issue is partly honorable and partly difficult Obscure Issue is too difficult for audience to understand, because they are uninformed or because it is complex

7. Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation Introduction  To prepare our audience in such a way that they’ll be disposed to lend a ready ear to the rest of the speech (Quintilian)  To make clear what is the end (telos) of the discourse (Aristotle) May be used in mean, ambiguous and obscure cases

8. Exordium: Introduction vs. Insinuation Insinuation  Hostile audience  admit difference of opinion  Unsavory issue  admit it  Tired audience  promise to make it short

9. Narrative States the issue as clearly & simply as possible Clear, concise, and brief Definitive, value, and procedure narratives Background information/History

10. Partition Identifies the issues in dispute List the arguments to be used in the order they appear Acknowledgement of issues Agreement of definitions Issues of value involved in discussion Procedures to make change

11. Confirmation Elaborates on arguments in support of the rhetor’s position Confirms/validates material given in Narrative & Partition Uses the strategies previously discussed (e.g. kairos, logos, ethos, pathos…)

12. Refutation Possible arguments against the rhetor’s position are addressed Possible arguments against the rhetor are addressed

13. Peroration (Conclusion) Clear and Brief! Review of issues in partition, briefly recall how each was supported
