Explain

And so, once again, I think of the young Jewish boy from the Carpathian Mountains. He has accompanied the old man I have become throughout these years of quest and struggle. And together we walk towards the new millennium, carried by profound fear and extraordinary hope.

Elie Wiesel, "The Perils of Indifference," 1999

Which kind of rhetorical appeal is Wiesel most clearly using in this passage?
A. Pathos
B. Logos
C. Ethos
D. Connotation

Respuesta :

Octaviana
In my opinion, the right answer is A. Pathos. This is a purely personal account that tries to evoke the reader's emotions, talking about the narrator's. It is too personal to rely on logos - logical deduction or inferring; it doesn't have elements of ethos either, as it doesn't deal with categories of right and wrong. As for connotation, it is not a rhetorical appeal at all.

The answer is a pathos
