... Pericles is an example of an orator, who spoke about his funeral oration. ... In order for Pericles to go about these parts, he must use the three rhetorical devices: pathos, ethos, and logos to help the audience support his views more easily. ... The first type of rhetorical device in which Pericles uses is pathos. ... Pericles uses pathos in both the opening and closing scene. Pericles begins his speech by saying the total opposite of what the audience expects. ... For example, Pericles says “I will speak first of our ancestors, for it is right and seemly that now, when we are lamenting the dead, a tribute should be paid to their memory” (Thucydides 374) The closing scene summarizes the arguments and stirs up the audience.
