To kill a mockingbird- analyzing atticus’s closing arguments 45 points and brainliest for the whole thing!

In this literary masterpiece Atticus Finch uses pathos, logos, and ethos in order to try and persuade the jury that Tom Robinson is innocent. Atticus starts the defense by building pity for Mayella Ewell. Then he uses pathos to build a connection with Tom by mentioning the Negro who felt sorry for a white woman. This is in order to get the jury to pity Tom and relate the jurors to Tom because they all share pity for Mayella. In the speech he proves that Tom could not have commited the crime using logos.  Circumstantial evidence indicate that Mayella Ewell was beaten by someone who is left handed which Tom is not. Atticus uses ethos by acknowledging the credibility of the courts describing them as the tutgreat levelers. He reffers to the long lived code of equality in the courts.
