The links on the left (under “Trees”) provide information about effective speaking and writing. Under “Canons of Rhetoric,” you’ll find a reference to Martin Luther King, Jr.’s speech and an example of a rhetorical analysis of his speech. Using this as a guide, conduct your own analysis of King’s use of Invention, Arrangement, Style, Memory, and Delivery. You may want to conduct some additional research to help in your analysis of the speeches below.”
