  • The Demiurge of Words by Benjamin Syn
    UCCS|Undergraduate Research Journal|12.1 The Demiurge of Words by Benjamin Syn Traditional rhetorical theory posits that each of the three Aristotelian appeals, or pisteis, exist ​ ​ in three separate locations: pathos within the audience, logos within the message, and ethos within the rhetor; however, just as logos resides within the text itself, pathos too is crafted by the text. As such, logic and organization are within the words themselves, and so is any emotional reaction elicited by the audience. Therefore, the rhetorical energy that powers the logos also fuels the pathos. While these two appeals are within the text, I am going to forward that arête and ethos equally exist ​ ​ within a text and consequently are wholly constructed by the text itself—even perhaps despite the rhetor. In addition, I am going to propose that the seemingly fixed and universal concept of history is also crafted within a text. Finally, I will highlight that all these attributes are rhetorical and that rhetoric itself is magic. Throughout history, there has been this seemingly omnipresent binary between what is innate and what is learned. For example, Homer in the eighth century BC advocated that legendary individuals, like Achilles, were born with arête, and the council who ruled Athens at the time of Solon ​ ​ in the sixth century BC advocated their right to rule by their intrinsic greatness, the arête of their ​ ​ birth (Williams 24, 64). Twentieth-century classicist Werner Jaeger explains in his The Ideals of Greek ​ Culture that “the root of the word [arête] is the same as aristos, the word which shows superlative ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ability and superiority, and aristos was constantly used in the plural to denote the nobility” (5).
