Answer:

His poetic form had to be able to channel what he saw as the poetry inherent in all the infinite activities of life. It's little wonder, then, that he found it necessary to invent a poetic form—free verse—that could give him the freedom to achieve those ends.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Directions: Identify five examples of the use of logos, ethos, and pathos in the speech (vivil rights adress). First, cite specific lines from the speech. Then, indicate whether the lines are an example of logos, ethos, or pathos. Finally, explain your choice as well as the impact the lines are intended to have on the audience. One example has been completed for you.

Answer:

"who among us would be content to have the colour of their skin changed and stand in this place? who among us would then be content with the patience and delay." - Logos

"A great change is at hand and it's our task our obligation to make that revolution that changes peacefully and constructive for all. Those who act boldly are recognizing right as well as reality." - Pathos

"That they were admitted peacefully on the campus is due in good measure to the conduct of the students of the University of Alabama, who met their responsibilities in a constructive way." - Ethos

" This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds. It was founded on the principle that all men are created equal, and that the rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened." - Logos  

"If an American, because his skin is dark, cannot eat lunch in a restaurant open to the public, if he cannot send his children to the best public school available, if he cannot vote for the public officials who will represent him, if, in short, he cannot enjoy the full and free life which all of us want" - Logos

Explanation:

Logos, pathos and ethos are very important rhetorical resources within a discourse, as they shape the character, the idea and the feeling that the speaker wishes to convey.

The logos is a resource that appeals to logic, the speaker using it when he wants to emphasize concepts and logical situations within the theme he is talking about.

Pathos is a resource that appeals to emotion. In this case, the speaker wants to influence the emotions and sensations that people can develop around the topic.

Ethos is a resource that appeals to ethics, where the speaker reflects ethical concepts addressed within the exposed theme.
