  6.4 Rhetoric  
  Article 207–Pathos  
  Canon 2701  
  Pathos is the third of six (6) Methods influencing the type of Rhetoric and its delivery. It defines the qualities of audience empathy and emotional connection between a speaker and their intended audience. The word originates from the Ancient Greek πάθος (pathos) meaning “suffering”.  
  Canon 2702  
  Pathos is the third of three "intrinsic" methods and qualities of a speaker in using Rhetoric as it considered inherent and inseparable with the perceived identity of the speaker.  
  Canon 2703  
  Pathos is a key method of influence through Rhetoric as audiences prefer to hear from people with whom they empathize as having emotional integrity. Therefore, the more authentically emotionally engaged a speaker is perceived, potentially the more influential.
