I just read a great series of articles by Andrew Dlugan of Six Minutes Blog fame. Andrew has reminded us that Aristotle wrote the definitive work on what it takes to be persuasive over 2300 years ago.
He defines the three aspects of persuasion, Ethos, Pathos and Logos. Then he writes an article about each of these qualities that add up to delivering a persuasive message.
Andrew’s article is called Ethos, Pathos, Logos:
3 Pillars of Public Speaking.
