What is Rhetoric?
Speaking or writing that’s intended to persuade is known as Rhetoric. If we intend to write editorial columns, or while forming points for a debate or an argumentative essay, we should work on our rhetoric.
The word “ Rhetoric“ has a Greek origin which means “speaker” which is used for the art of persuasive speaking or writing. While listening eagerly to long speeches & while studied them in school, rhetoric was used by people in a positive sense; now it is often seen as a negative term, that implies artfulness over real content. For instance, if a person gives a clever speech but doesn’t mention the problem that needs to be addressed, one can say, “That’s just a lot of rhetoric.”
