A comparison and contrast purpose used in nonfiction writing
I think it’s both, but probably leaning more towards ethos.
"In Flanders Fields" and "Dulce et Decorum Est!" both use the same event but they reveal completely different views of World War 1. In the first mentioned story author shows his respect to those who was fighting for their country and future generations, persuading the reader to feel the same and to be ready to protect their motherland.
