Rhetoric is defined as "an ability, in each <nowiki>[particular]</nowiki> case, to see the available means of persuasion." (Aristotle, 36) In rhetoric, as Aristotle puts it, there are three "species" (Aristotle, 37) [[ethos]], [[pathos]], and [[logos]]. Rhetoric is used in any form of public address. Often it is used to describe politics, as Aristotle states "thus too, rhetoric dresses itself up in the form of politics." (Aristotle, 39)
