The Classical Argument, let's get started!


Ok, for the next 5 weeks we're going to focus on learning the classical argument. There are several resources on the blog you should have already looked at:

A sample classical argument essay
A PDF explaining the classical argument
Agnes Teacher put together this useful PPT with another explanation of the classical argument

All of these links are accessible on the right side of the blog under the "Course Materials" heading.

This video's narrator speaks very quickly, but it is an interesting (And short!) history of Western argumentation.

* Please note that even though the classical argument has 5 parts, it is very different from the 5 paragraph essay. *
