Rhetorical Analysis by Staff.Jennifer Young https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3 Made with a lightning strike of genius en-us 2020-02-19 18:17:22 UTC 2023-09-17 08:55:13 UTC hello@padlet.com Chris and Ella https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448228639 Orwell uses the word "inhuman" to respectfully show the audience that sainthood is not something to achieve.  This allows the audience to relate to the concept that human error is a natural aspect to being human. This helps Orwell relay his opinion because he is indeed human. Making flaws himself, allows the reader to realize everyone is flawed and human.]]> 2020-02-20 18:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448228639 Alison Lindstrom https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448230019 Orwell uses the word "inhuman" to describe the depth of sainthood's consequences. This word has a powerfully negative connotation, and it allows Orwell to develop a passionate, severe tone. By appealing to the reader's own humanity, Gandhi's practices are seen as extreme, and a defiance of what it is to be a human. This delicate word choice establishes Orwell's argument as relevant and compelling, drawing the reader into his future statements.]]> 2020-02-20 18:36:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448230019 Ira and Cooper https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448232212 By utilizing powerful diction, such as the word "inhuman", Orwell creates a negative connotation around sainthood. This makes the audience view Gandhi and sainthood as an unrealistic ideal for one to pursue. It furthers his argument by allowing the audience to relate to the fact that all humans are imperfect. The utilization of powerful diction creates an empathetic mood from the reader.]]> 2020-02-20 18:39:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448232212 Chris and Ella https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448232308 By respecting Gandi's points, the audience can see that Orwell isn't tarnishing Gandi's own credibility. This gives the reader a general idea of the amount of respect orwell has for Gandi even though he doesn't agree with his methods. Allowing the audience see and understand how Orwell turly feels towards Gandi. ]]> 2020-02-20 18:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448232308 Anisha and Daniela https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448234635 Using the word "inhuman" creates a negative connotation around sainthood. This makes the audience view sainthood as unrealistic. This makes Orwell's argument seem more achievable and practical.

]]> 2020-02-20 18:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448234635 Ira and Cooper https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448234819 Orwell respectfully analyzes and agrees with some of Gandhi's ideas by utilizing a candid tone. This enables him to prove to the audience that he is fully knowledgeable about Gandhi's ideas and that he is not merely seeking to criticize him. This allows him to effectively persuade the audience by establishing himself as a diplomatic writer. By establishing himself as a credible writer, the audience is naturally inclined to believe his views towards Gandhi's ideas.]]> 2020-02-20 18:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448234819 Anisha and Daniela https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448235863 With the details of Gandhi willing to let his wife or children die, it shows that Gandhi values sainthood more than the lives of others. This detail affects the audience's mind by changing their view on Gandhi sainthood. It creates a negative view of sainthood that can not be achieved without inhumane actions. This helps build Orwell's argument by showing that sainthood can only be achieved by committing sins.]]> 2020-02-20 18:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448235863 Alison Lindstrom https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448236810 Orwell describes Gandhi's points as ,"unquestionably true" (Orwell), and this word choice develops his tone as diplomatic, and respectful. By acknowledging Gandhi's validity, Orwell creates a platform for respectful, but candid argumentation. His restrained tone re-assures the reader of his dignity and sincerity when addressing the widely-revered Gandhi. Naturally, the reader is more open to Orwell's future claims, because he has built his image as a writer off of decency and respect. ]]> 2020-02-20 18:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448236810 Oceana Covington https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448237618 By using the word 'inhuman' to describe sainthood, Orwell illustrates the almost impossible nature of sainthood and appeals to the audience's feelings of inadequacy due to sins. This appeal   by Orwell leads the audience to see Gandhi and sainthood in a negative light, persuading them that sainthood is an extreme that should be avoided, not sought for or treasured. This strengthens Orwell's argument.]]> 2020-02-20 18:46:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448237618 Anisha and Daniela https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448238138 Acknowledging Gandhi points shows that Orwell put in the time to do the research on Gandhi. This build credibility because it shows he isn't writing to ridicule Gandhi. The audience starts to respect him because he takes the time to show that Gandhi isn't wrong about everything and has some good points. Overall, this adds to his argument because it drives the reader to see what Orwell has to say next.]]> 2020-02-20 18:46:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448238138 Ira and Cooper https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448238675 By including this detail, Orwell shows how far Gandhi was willing to go in order to achieve sainthood. The audience sees these details and understands that achieving sainthood would need one to cross a line that most would never want to cross. It makes the audience realize that Gandhi's "sainthood" isn't as perfect as it may seem. This strengthens Orwell's argument by proving to the reader that the normal human would not be willing to achieve sainthood. ]]> 2020-02-20 18:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448238675 Alison Lindstrom https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448240709 Orwell includes the important detail, "Gandhi was willing to let his wife or child die to uphold his sainthood" (Orwell), to explain to the severity of sainthood. This blunt claim reveals the extreme nature of sainthood. By appealing to the reader's own familial attachments, Orwell adds relevance and emotional power to his statements. He creates an almost pleading tone, and invokes emotional connection in the reader to his argument. Not only does Orwell show the severe consequences of sainthood with this claim, he links these consequences to the concept of human attachment and relationships, which creates an element of reader-involvement in his argument.]]> 2020-02-20 18:50:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448240709 Ella and Chris https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448241647 By adding this detail, Gandhi was willing to go so far to achieve sainthood. This effects the mind of the reader because it exemplifies sainthood is achievable, but by only extreme actions. Orwell adds this in to build his argument that reaching sainthood requires sin. ]]> 2020-02-20 18:51:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448241647 Nancy, Audrey, and Lydia https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448245552 Orwell uses the word "inhuman" to describe sainthood, creating a visible oxymoron. Using inhuman allows Orwell create a more visceral connection with the audience, changing how sainthood could originally be seen in the audiences eyes. It changes it from something considered perfection, to something of almost monstrous qualities. The use of inhuman adds to Orwell's argument by using charged diction to create an emotional connection with the audience. ]]> 2020-02-20 18:56:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448245552 Nancy, Audrey and Lydia https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448252817 By praising his 'adversary' Orwell allows himself to be seen as humble and trustworthy because providing positive reinforcement to the opposition shows his respect towards Gandhi. His use of ethos affects the audience by establishing himself as a credible resource. This adds to the argument by further proving himself to be a respectable source, and solidifying his opinion in the audiences minds. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:06:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448252817 Oceana Covington https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448256380 In validating Gandhi's points stating they are "unquestionably true", Orwell demonstrates that he respects and acknowledges Gandhi's opposing position, showing he is trustworthy. This helps the audience trust and respect Orwell because he has shown that he has carefully considered the topic he is arguing, creating an effect of being knowledgeable(building trust). This trust and credibility that Orwell gains from the audience strengthens Orwell's believability and, therefore, the chance of the audience being persuaded to his side. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448256380 Nancy, Audrey, Lydia https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448257672 Death is a terrifying event to a large majority of people, and saying that someone is willing to let their loved ones die because of a perfectionist belief places Gandhi into a negative light. It portrays Gandhi, a widely respected figure, as someone who would let people suffer just to uphold their own values. This furthers Orwell's argument by drawing audience opinion away from Gandhi and consecutively, towards himself. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448257672 Oceana Covington https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448261864 2020-02-20 19:18:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448261864 Shiva Rudra & Nishanth Pallapu https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448264683 The word "inhuman" portrays Gandhi's sainthood in a negative light in order to convince his audience that making mistakes as a human is better than sainthood. It strengthens Orwell's argument by making the audience see that making faults is part of being human and surviving.]]> 2020-02-20 19:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448264683 Marat https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448264892 Orwell uses this diction at the right and place which makes it powerful which in turn affected the audiences viewpoints on becoming perfect and pointing out flaws in Gandhi viewpoints if the audience believes in it. In the end it was very effective in changing my ideas about Gandhi.]]> 2020-02-20 19:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448264892 Ryan & Emma https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448265351 2020-02-20 19:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448265351 Ethan Lindquist https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448265494 Orwell builds his own credibility as an author by respecting Gandhi's ideas towards the beginning of his argument. Because he is arguing against a well-known and revered man such as Gandhi, Orwell wants to make it clearly acknowledge his opposition in an appropriate manner. This allows him to later to disagree with some of the points Gandhi made in his autobiography with a stance of professionalism. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448265494 Isaac https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268333 Inhuman: lacking human qualities of compassion and mercy; cruel. 
Orwell uses diction by labeling sainthood as inhuman. After using the example discussing the way Gandhi refused to give certain medicine to members of his family. By using this example, Orwell helps the audience relate to this example, and reflect on their opinion]]> 2020-02-20 19:28:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268333 Ryan & Emma https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268348 Orwell builds ethos when he validates several of Gandhi's points stating that they are "unquestionably true". This gives Orwell credibility by showing to the audience that Orwell knows what he is talking about, as well as making him seem more professional. This affects the audience by making them more likely to trust Orwell, allowing him to lead farther with his ideas he is trying to express.]]> 2020-02-20 19:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268348 Nishanth P. and Shiva R. https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268372 When he states that some parts of Gandhi's autobiography are "unquestionable true", He establishes his own credibility because he has read the autobiography himself and validated the referenced points which may also oppose him. It also gives him some professionalism as he does not address the book only to criticize it, but to analyze a key point. It lets the audience trust him and be more open to his points. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:28:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268372 Shiva Rudra and Nishanth Pallapu https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268387 Orwell includes this detail to signify the negative effects of sainthood, and to sway the audience into his favor by introducing his counterclaim after this statement. This further builds onto his argument by mentioning the bonds between Gandhi and his family, and how easily they are broken. Orwell appeals to his audience by showing the lack of empathy between Gandhi and his family.]]> 2020-02-20 19:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448268387 Ryan & Emma https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448270063 Orwell includes the important detail that "Gandhi was willing to let his wife or child die" to uphold his sainthood. This is an important detail as it makes Gandhi and his side seem overly-rational and unconcerned for the well-being of others. Painting Gandhi in a negative light makes Orwell's side of the argument seem far more logical and reasonable.]]> 2020-02-20 19:31:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448270063 Romeo and Morgaine https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448286806 Using the word choice inhuman to describe sainthood portrays that seeking perfection is unrealistic. The use of the word doesn't disrespect Gandhi's morals and ideas but makes the audience see a different point of view. The word choice of inhuman properly strengthens Orwell's argument but at the same time doesn't dishonor Gandhi's reputation. ]]> 2020-02-20 19:58:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448286806 Taylor and Raelynn https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289147 By describing sainthood as "inhuman," Orwell characterizes sainthood in a way that disagrees with the values of humanity and the imperfections that humans share. This causes the reader to feel disgusted and unapproving of the values of sainthood, because it seems irrational.]]> 2020-02-20 20:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289147 David and Anthony https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289296 By carefully choosing sublte yet effective diction to characterize the inhumanity of sainthood, Orwell is able to establish an opinion on sainthood through a gradually developed tone. This minimal way of indirectly stating how Orwell feels about sainthood builds pathos in the audience by usage of powerful words, while still maintining his somewhat reserved stature. By seeming both calm yet assurtive in his opinion through diction, Orwell is able to be extremely suggestive to the audience without being overbearing, creating a feeling of authority in himself. ]]> 2020-02-20 20:02:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289296 David and Anthony https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289535 He does not berate Gandhi for having another opinion, and does not necessarily say that his opinion is better, just him stating his own. Usually, when people want to be believed, they have to break down the other person's opinion and insult them, and Orwell does not do this. This allows the reader to believe that Orwell is not trying to prove anything, and he is just trying to state what he thinks, which builds up credit and makes him seem more honest and believable. This is extremely effective in painting Orwell as an honest man and someone who should be listened to. ]]> 2020-02-20 20:03:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289535 Kaitlyn and Nathan https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289541 The use of the word "inhuman by Orwell to describe Gandhi illustrates a negative viewpoint, which affects the audience's opinion. This initial rebuttal of sainthood by Orwell causes the audience to question the moral standards of sainthood, while also building his argument for human imperfection. ]]> 2020-02-20 20:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448289541 Ash https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448290621 When Orwell uses the word “inhumane” to describe sainthood, 
he creates a negative tone within the readers based on his diction he chose to incorporate. When talking about sainthood in this way, Orwell affects the readers based on the non-positive thoughts by making the audience think twice about general knowledge within sainthood and human imperfection.
]]> 2020-02-20 20:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448290621 Romeo and Morgaine https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448293503 Orwell builds his own credibility with ethos by agreeing and understanding Gandhi's beliefs while also respectfully having his own. The audience isn't persuaded by Orwell's beliefs but rather recieves a shine light from his point of view without tainting his credibility or Gandhi's. Orwell establishing early on that he agrees with Gandhi represents both ideas effectively without putting either person in the wrong. ]]> 2020-02-20 20:09:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448293503 Kaitlyn and Nathan https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448293928 Orwell established credibility through his willingness to portray both sides of the argument instead of making Gandhi's points illegitimate. The ability to respectfully disagree with a long held belief illustrates discipline and forethought within Orwell's writing. Therefore, the audience is more susceptible to contradictory ideas that are being presented. This adds to the overall argument by creating trust among the audience and legitimizing his claim.]]> 2020-02-20 20:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448293928 Taylor and Raelynn https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448294396 By giving credit to some of Gandhi's beliefs, Orwell gains credibility for himself, because he is not destroying the well respected name of Gandhi. This makes the reader more open to considering Orwell's ideas, because they know he agrees with someone they respect and agree with.]]> 2020-02-20 20:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448294396 David and Anthony https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448295620 Orwell made sure to carefully pick his details, to make the audience think of Orwell to be more convincing. He acknowledges that Gandhi and his family weren't going to die, but most readers resonate mainly with the fact that he was willing to let them die. The readers then see Gandhi in a more negative light, and Orwell in a positive light, whether they know it or not, that small detail affects what they think of Gandhi.]]> 2020-02-20 20:13:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448295620 Taylor and Raelynn https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448297617 This selection of detail grabs the reader's attention and appeals to their emotions, most likely making them feel angry or sad that orthodoxy to a belief was valued over the life of a child or wife. It also leads the reader to believe that Gandhi, one who is considered to be a hero, is imperfect himself.]]> 2020-02-20 20:17:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448297617 Romeo and Morgaine https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448299132 The importance of Orwell quoting "Gandhi was willing to let his wife or child die" lays the line of the extremity of his morals. Using such an extreme example sets an inhuman tone to Gandhi's beliefs. This helps build Orwell's argument because it shows how seeking for perfection can cause damage to loved ones or people close to you. ]]> 2020-02-20 20:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448299132 Gregory and Raymond https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448299263 By using the word "inhuman" to describe sainthood, Orwell creates a negative tone around sainthood by using its negative connotation.

This detail is important because it is being used to destroy the moral high ground that sainthood possesses over human imperfection. This detail then affects the audience by showing a different view on Gandhi's actions than is normally depicted. Overall, the selection of details goes towards discrediting the entire base values of sainthood and creates a favorable view towards imperfection.]]> 2020-02-20 20:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448299668 Juan and Kennedy https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448300506 The word "inhumane" puts people who are seeking sainthood at a more supreme level ,and makes it a position that is almost impossible to achieve. The audience's view of Gandhi is switched to see him as a impossible feat since Orwell conveys the thought that every human being has sinned, and therefore it is impossible to achieve Gandhi's level of sainthood. The impossibility of achieving sainthood rejects the idea that humans can go the path that Gandhi has.]]> 2020-02-20 20:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448300506 Cathryn, Victoria, Nisbet https://padlet.com/jenyoung/co1qzu30icw3/wish/448300826 When Orwell uses powerful diction to characterize sainthood as "inhuman" it shows that it has a negative connotation.

Sainthood, on the other hand, has a very positive connotation, as it is used to describe someone of high respect and morality. To characterize such a words as "sainthood" as inhumane is a very powerful blow to the integrity and value placed in the position of sainthood.
