Rhetoric - is rhetoric more about explaining truths

Rhetoric

Answer the following questions: 

• Think of an example from your life that addresses the following questions: is rhetoric more about explaining truths or about creating beauty? Can you articulate a beautiful untruth (i.e. a lie)? Can truths be beautiful or must they remain ugly? Have you ever shared an "ugly" truth? 
• You must mention kairos, polis, or engage the ideas of the Sophists, Gorgias, Protagoras, and/or Aspasia discussed in class from the Herrick textbook. Write your answer in the form of a narrative. Don't tell me. Show me.
