Rhetoric is the art of
discourse, an art that
aims to improve the
facility of speakers or
writers who attempt
to inform, persuade,
or motivate particular
audiences in specific
situations.
Its best known
definition comes
from Aristotle,
who considers it a
counterpart of
both logic and
politics.
From ancient
Greece to the late
19th century, it was
a central part of
Western education,
filling the need to
train public
speakers and
writers to move
audiences to action.
A speaker,
writer, or artist
supports the
probability of a
message by
logical, ethical,
and emotional
proofs.
Some form of
logos, ethos,
and pathos is
present in every
possible public
presentation that
exists.
ethos: Aristotle’s
theory of
character and how
the character and
credibility of a
speaker, literary
text, or picture can
influence an
audience to
consider him/her
to be believable.
pathos: the use
of emotional
appeals to alter
the audience's
judgment.
logos: the use
of reasoning,
either inductive
or deductive, to
construct an
argument.

Kantorek’s letter is littered with meaningless phrases
of patriotic zeal, calling them “Iron Youth” and
praising their great courage. Paul and his friends
remember how they once respected Kantorek. Now,
they loathe him. In calling Paul and his friends “Iron
Youth,” Kantorek suggests that they are young,
impassive, and strong. Yet Paul and his friends feel
raw, and they yearn for their old lives, when they felt
young. Now, combat has aged them beyond their
years. Paul and his friends feel that older men such
as Kantorek have betrayed their trust and sent them
to die for empty and useless ideals.
