Logos
The type of audience appeal that calls for a speaker to use facts, statistics, and common sense is known as logos, or logical appeal. This approach targets the audience's rationality, aiming to persuade them through reasoned arguments and empirical evidence. By presenting clear data and logical reasoning, the speaker can effectively engage an audience that values critical thinking and informed decision-making. This is particularly effective in academic, professional, or technical contexts where objective information is prioritized.

In "A Modest Proposal," Jonathan Swift establishes credibility through his use of irony and satirical tone, presenting his ideas with a serious facade. By referencing his own credentials as a respected clergyman and writer, Swift enhances his ethos and persuades readers to consider the validity of his proposal despite its outrageous nature. This appeal to ethos helps Swift engage his audience and provoke critical thinking about the issues he addresses.
