Logos is related to logic or reasoning. The first example of logos Antony uses is “you all did love him once, not without cause: what cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?” When Mark Antony says this he is saying that when Caesar was living you all loved him, so now that he died why cant u love and mourn for him now? This is a logical statement. My next Logos is this “ which all the while ran blood, great caesar fell. O, what a fall was there, my countryman! Then I, and you, and all of us fell down.” Here Mark Antony is telling the crowd in a reasonable way that since Caesar fell we all fell to mourn for him. They mourned for him because he was an important man and Mark Antony is making that point to them through logos. My final example of logos is this “I thrice presented him a kingly crown, which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?” This is logos because he is logically saying that he offered Caesar the crown three times which he didn't accept all three times, and Mark Antony asks is this ambition? The answer is no it isn't ambition so Mark Antony is telling them this to swing their emotions. Mark Antony used the persuasive device called logos in his funeral speech to Shift their emotions from sad and mournful to angry and
