Hello. You forgot to say that this question is about the article “Why Literature Matters”.
Answer:
In her article, Dana Gioia reports on the points of society that are reached by the decrease in reading among young people in the society we know. To reinforce her argument, she shows evidence of how the lack of habit of reading, any type of book, has impacted Americans not only on a personal level, but on an economic and civic level as well, since reading provides a strong knowledge in these areas. According to her, when these things are affected in an individual who is not in the habit of reading, the whole society suffers and the whole nation becomes weakened.
The letter from Samuel Johnson shown above was made as a refusal to request a woman who would like to receive sponsorship from a bishop to send her son to university.
In the Letter, Johnson explains the reasons that led him to reject this request, stating that they cannot ask the bishop he does not know, sponsorship for a boy the bishop does not know. This is because this type of sponsorship was something very big, with great economic expense. Therefore, this was not offered to strangers, but only to people with whom the sponsors had knowledge and a certain intimacy.
In this letter, Johnson makes recurring use of ethos and logos. He uses ehos, when he shows that he is rejecting the request in the most ethical and respectable way possible, and, he uses logos, when he shows that the refusal is not being made for personal reasons, but for the logic of the situation.
Finally, Johnson says that he believes that the woman's son is a brilliant boy and that it is not necessary for him to go to university to be a great man.
