BR- Rhetorical Analysis for Source 1

Source:
Bacon's Rebellion

The William and Mary Quarterly, Vol. 9, No. 1 (Jul., 1900), pp. 1-10 (article consists of 10 pages)
Published by: Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture


Author:
This article was written by the Quarterly Historical Magazine in July of 1900. The exact author(s) are unknown.

Audience:
It was written to be directed toward the people back in the 1900s to inform them of what significance Bacon’s Rebellion played in their history.

Tone:
To me the tone was very interesting. It was mostly informative telling about Indian and Virginian relations.

Purpose:
The purpose of this article was to explain in detail the descriptions of the fight between the English and the Indians. The part that I used for my paper was very useful.

J-STOR would only let me view the first page of the article so I am not clear as to what the ethos, pathos, and logos are.
