Analyzing Rhetorical Situations

When reading this chapter, it really made me question my own writing style. I never asked myself any type of rhetoric questions on any style of my writing. All I did was just write to the subject and hope for the best. This chapter has really brighten my eyes to the point where I really need to start asking myself these questions. Ranging from "writer, reader, text, and medium", these are the things that I need to adopt to my own personal writing style. The only thing that really bothered me was when Aristotle was introduced. His wording of the preliminary goals, Pathos, Logos, and Ethos, really simplified what I need to do.
