Thank You for Arguing

I was really interested in the first chapter of Thank You for Arguing because I thought it gave a lot of great tips on how to use it in your papers. I liked how it gave me a background on how rhetoric came to be. The ancient Greeks apparently created it and they thought rhetoric was an essential skill for leadership. They thought it was so important that they placed it at the center of higher education. Rhetoric helped create the worlds first democracies that later trained Julius Caesar, Marcus Tulles Cicero and many more famous scholars. I also like Aristotle's three traits of credible leadership because I believe that we can apply those to our everyday life and use them with good intentions.

  1. I definitely agree that the first chapter of Thank you for Arguing gives great tips for your first Wring Project. I feel like if you really don't understand what rhetoric is then you can look there and see the true definition of what it is and what you should need to write about. Another thing I agree to is that the three traits of credibility leadership. I do believe that we can apply it to our everyday life and good intentions. I feel like if we didn't have those in our everyday life then it would be a bit different.

  2. I completely agree with your opinion on this first chapter of " Thank you For Arguing ", and I still am fathomed that mostly every concept was created by the ancient greeks. I know these concepts had to begin somewhere but just sitting and thinking about how everything has came from the greeks still brings Awee to me.

    Leadership is also a very vital part to society now a days, especially if the leader is responsible and accepts responsibility for there actions. If a leader is not credible and responsible than they are not reliable.
