Comparing Two Speeches: A Comparative Analysis
Hey Jessica interesting perspective I think that both of these speeches were both to bring their country together against what they felt as the enemy. Both of these speeches were filled not only with passion; but fury as well both countries were getting ready for separate wars, but the main objective was to take down their "enemy" weather it be Japan for America or Germany for America.

    Comparing NEWSELA And Jfk's Speech In The United States

    What I like about both speeches, though different and same is the men who spoke. I chose these speeches, because these men were great leaders, and actually seemed to have a lot of the views I do, which are pretty great. For example, JFK says on page 3, paragraph 6 of NEWSELA, “Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of focusing on those problems that which divide us.” To me it has a greater significance, because it doesn’t just apply to the world, but everything we do, and it’s great he brought that up into the world of politics. Along with Lincoln, who states on Page 2, paragraph 8 of NEWSELA, “ With malice towards none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish…

    Rhetorical device Project on Pearl Harbor Address to the Nation

    However, Franklin D. Roosevelt did a truly amazing job addressing both the nation and Congress because he did not focus on only one audience. He clearly addresses both audiences when he says, “I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people...” he takes both opinions into consideration. By doing this Roosevelt gives equal importance to the nation and to Congress, which helps him get a positive response from both audiences. This shows that he successfully informed the nation and Congress about the war and both audiences understood. He accomplished two things at once because by addressing both audiences in one speech he shows that he had them both in mind. He did not include the kind of language that the nation would not understand just because he was talking to congress. Also he did not deliver the speech on a manner that would not be appropriate for Congress he used just the right language that would be understood by both audiences.…

    Comparing War Speechs

    There have been two major incidents in which two presidents, George W. Busch and Franklin O. Roosevelt, have made War speechs about taking drastic actions. Bush's speech entitled "Freedom and Fear are at War" spoken on September 20, 2001, and Roosevelts speech "Declaration of War," spoken on December 8, 1941, have both very unique strategys that are of genius. To compare and analyze their strategys, you have to understand what they are saying.…

    Bernie Sanders Speech Analysis

    At the Bernie Sanders rally, he used a variety of techniques while presenting to the group. I noticed when he hit key talking points in his argument; he would use his hands that would elicit a stronger reaction from the crowd. He read his audience demographics well by hitting on housing cost, minimum wage and the high cost of tuition (all very important concerns of college students). However, there were some points he made I felt to be confusing. At one point in his speech, he mentioned how Native Americans were taken advantage of in the past. He tried to say that we should follow the Native American’s lessons and live with nature (and not destroy it with fossil fuel and natural gas exploration). It seemed he used a fallacy to connect two…

    Hero Of Our Times Speech Analysis

    In Reynold’s Price famous “Hero of Our Times” speech he says that, “Our need for heroes is at least as old as our need for enemies.” Even before Greek myths, there were boundaries and expectations because without enemies there wouldn’t be a need for heroes. To be an American hero in the twentieth century is a matter of perspective. In my perspective, to be an American hero in the twentieth century means that one must be a model to aspire others, sacrifice something of meaning for the greater good, and should be willing to “answer the call”.…

    Roosevelt's Speech Analysis

    Throughout the speech, Roosevelt depicts the Japanese Empire as the enemy, however, he fails to include how American lives would be impacted. Thus, allowing Americans to feel disconnected from the incident and refuse to act due to the lack of patriotism. By inserting this quote, he forces Americans to see the possibility of their treasured freedom be forcibly taken from them. As an accredited Army and Navy commander, his statement of the potential reality that Americans can face by the expanding and destructive Japanese Empire, forces the audience to make the Japanese attack personal. Afterwards, he allows a small pause for the audience to react. In turn, the audience presumably grows anxious or angry and will look for vengeful solutions for…

    Comparing Speeches from Obama and Mlk

    On September 18, 1963, in Birmingham, Alabama, tragedy struck Sixteenth Street Baptist Church when a bomb planted in the basement detonated and killed four young teenage girls, who were changing into choir robes. Nearly 50 years later, a similar tragedy occurred in Newtown, Connecticut. Twenty-six were shot multiple times at Sandy Hook Elementary school, 20 of those killed victims being kindergarteners. After the bombing, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave a public eulogy in the same church the young girls were murdered. Similarly, President Barack Obama delivered a speech of consolation to the public on such a heartbreak as the occurrence in Newtown. The eulogy by Dr. King and speech given by President Obama are similar in content and references throughout, but are very different when it comes to the purpose and literary devices used in each.…

    Tribute Speech Comparison

    My tribute speech and informative speech were similar with Angela’s comments about reading off note cards and I clearly see that in both speeches. I can see in both my speeches that I’m very nervous and need to just take deep breaths after each point. I’m rarely looking at my audience in both speeches. I have no hand gestures in either of my speeches which is something I need to work on. I needed to practice both speeches a lot more then I had done. My peer comments on having nice clear points are the same on both speeches. The peer comments also said I need to work on eye contact and gestures on both speeches.…

    George Bush Speech Analysis

    George Bush begins the speech with a solemn address and informs the people of America about the tragic events that unfolded. The aim of this speech was to reassure the public that they are now safe and the perpetrators will be brought to justice. The use of inclusive pronouns, such as ‘we’ and ‘our’, is just one of the ways in which he builds a sense of unity and togetherness with the audience. He makes it feel like he is equal to them and shares their pain and will help them through their struggles.…
