title = "Characterizing the Speaker",
abstract = "This chapter is devoted to the craft of characterizing the speaker. To write a speech that fits the speaker and that the speaker is comfortable in delivering, the speechwriter must observe the speaker{\textquoteright}s personality. The concern for characterizing the speaker{\textquoteright}s personality influences the speech as a whole, and the speechwriter writing a speech for somebody else therefore needs to consider both argument and style in an individual light. After presenting approaches to characterization in classical rhetoric, we introduce a method for creating believable character based on analysis of the speakers{\textquoteright} individual style, preferred way or arguing, and intellectual and physical capacity.",
