In an essay of 500 to 750 words, compare and contrast the use of pathos, ethos, or logos in two works you have studied. If you'd like, you can use the academic articles that have been used up to this point in the course as your two works, or, you can compare other works that you have read or seen that attempts to make use of pathos, ethos, and logos.

Which work uses these rhetorical strategies more effectively? Which rhetorical strategy do you believe is the most powerful in terms of supporting the author's claim or main idea? Support your argument with specific examples from the works that you are comparing. Use the revision, proofreading, and formatting techniques you studied in Unit 1 to edit and format your paper.
