Rehoterical analysis paper
Instructions You will identify the rhetorical tools (ethos, pathos, logos and kairos) used to produce a successful (or unsuccessful) argument in your article.
You will also make an argument about why the author was successful or not as your
thesis.
Developing your argument
Rhetorical analysis explains why an author’s arguments work the way they do—or alternatively, why those arguments don’t work well.
Instead of focusing on the author’s message, this paper will evaluate how the author says what they say.
Rhetorical analysis can also address how an author
relates to his or her audience—specifically by adapting what they say to a specific audience. In
Thinking through your central argument, consider the
following questions:
What do the author's claims add up to? –
How effectively are the claims supported? –
How appropriate are the kinds of appeals? –
How do these claims or appeals connect with a
Particular audience? -What kind of audience is implied by the text? and what clues suggest to you it is this kind of audience?
For example, some statements you can use in your
paper would be: “So-and-So’s argument of (whatever their argument is) is effective/not effective because.....” “Smith over uses pathetic appeals by saying....” “The audience Smith seems to be addressing is.....”

Some articles like the Vanishing Veil would prove spectacularly wrong but his piece is nevertheless a gem because it is so perfectly captures the ethos of that time.
Veil was becoming less common on Leila Ahmed (writer’s) country and as hourani explains, it was fast disappearing in other countries like Arabs; Iraq and Syria .Arad’s people have started unveiling movement, gaining momentum with the spread of education. Somehow it means education also harms some traditions. Shearing Hourani’s views and assumption, including the connections he made between unveiling “advancement” & education (and between veiling and backwardness). We believed the veil is a cultural habit of no relevance to Islam or any religious piety .Now days women did not wear a hijab, being unveiled simply seemed the modern “advanced” way of being Muslims.
The growing adoption of veil is disturbing the people. It is very troubling to the people who had been working for years as feminists on women & Islam’s. Some questions like why the educated women in western culture or societies are allowed to live freely their life and wear whatever they want or wished, be willing to take on this symbol of patriarchy or women oppression? Somehow it is a part of culture where some people feel protected, dignified and also closer to the god while they are in hijab. They think that if they put on the veil or hijab people will respect them more. They won’t be the
As it has the some good sides, it also has some bad sides too. It is really difficult to walk with veil or hijab. Some people feels irritate of such culture. They think like they are hiding their beauty. They can’t walk without hijab because of the society. Whenever they see the modern and educated society women walking with their hair styled. They might have lots of hesitation because of the veil or hijabs.In Islamic culture women are regarded as diamond of the home and also they are very special and one of gods dearest creations.
