Problem: You will analyze a speech (see the options below) to gain a better understanding of "the rhetorical situation"- the audience, purpose, medium, and context-within which the speech was created. In addition to dissecting the speech's rhetorical situation, you will also identify and discuss the author's choice of rhetorical appeals (ethos, pathos, logos) or evidence. *This is the one and only assignment that is not driven by your personal topic selection, as all the following assignments build on each other starting with the Annotated Bibliography and concluding with the Research Story.
