In his Revolutionary-era pamphlet Common Sense, Thomas Paine uses the

words "exceedingly ridiculous," "unnaturally," and "absurd" to describe the

British monarchy. These are examples of which type of rhetorical appeal?

A. Morals

B. Parallelism

C. Ethos

D. Pathos

Ethos is the fundamental character of an individual or institution that distinguishes them from others. Describing the British monarch as exceedingly ridiculous, unnatural, and absurd are all negative connotations. They are not presented in a positive way and this means that Thomas Paine found them wanting in character.

The institution is hereby classified as a wildly unreasonable character. Paine was clearly against their dealings which was why he condemned them.
