American Rhetoric Go to the American Rhetoric site (linked to the left) and listen at least 3 of the top 25 (of the 100) Great Speeches of all time. This link should bring you directly to the listing of the top 25 speeches - all of the have mp3 audio files which will allow you to listen to the speech. Do not select speech #24 as the entire speech is not provided. Do NOT use the MLK, I have a Dream speech as we will be using this in class later in the semester when talking abut persuasion.
If you are having difficulty finding the speech you may google the speech or look for it on youtube and watch/listen to it there.
Assignment is the ask yourself What makes this a great speech? What are the hallmarks of a great speech? How does the speech make use of the cannons?
Please have your answers TYPED - Can be bulleted or paragraph format. Bring to class on Tuesday.
