Emerson's writing supports this claim when stating that "a man is relieved and gay when he has put his heart into work and done his best; but what he has said or done otherwise, shall give him no peace." Harry Potter, when he eventually accomplished his main goal of defeating Voldemort, is finally able to experience relief and peace after his unrest. ]]> 2016-12-15 05:27:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143766783 dvondohlen1479 https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143768930 Aristotle, the philosopher, is regarded one of the most influential people in history on ideas and beliefs, and was likely misunderstood, as compared to Emerson's characterization of Socrates, Jesus, Luther, and other historical figures. ]]> 2016-12-15 06:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143768930 dvondohlen1479 https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143769260 "pious aspirants to be noble clay plastic under the Almighty effort"]]> 2016-12-15 06:36:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143769260 dvondohlen1479 https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143983229 The song Firework, by Katy Perry, expresses some of the views found in Emerson's essay, especially that we are to trust and be content with ourselves, and that we are not to conform to or be prohibited from following our purpose and work by outer world influences. The lyrics say to "ignite the light [within us] and let it shine" and to "show 'em what you're worth."]]> 2016-12-16 05:15:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143983229 dvondohlen1479 https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143984086 Emerson presents a logos appeal in statements that are wise, such as "envy is ignorance."

He appeals to ethos in his statement, "And now we are men,and must accept in the highest mind the same transcendent destiny: and not pinched in a corner..."

His pathical appeal is found in the statement "let us advance and advance on Chaos and the Dark," calling into courage and determination and will of man.]]> 2016-12-16 05:54:30 UTC https://padlet.com/dvondohlen1479/n4wgahpuhb6u/wish/143984086
