devices at the start of your speech which create some poetic effects that helps you engage
the audience it may also include the use of diacop or anadiplosis which focus on
repetition of words of phrases crating emphasis and a strong display of emotions. A
powerful end i.e climate is the most important part in a speech. What you say in the end
is what stays with the audience hence, ending the speech with impactful rhetorical
devices is advisable. These may include inserting a rhetorical question making the
audience ponder a little as mentioned. A rhetorical analysis is structured similarly to other
essays an introduction presenting the thesis, a body analysing the text directing, and a
conclusion to wrap up. Rhetorical analysis is not a matter of choosing concept sin
advance and applying them to a text. Instead it starts with looking at the text in detail and
asking the appropriate questions about how it works.
