Visual Rhetorical Analysis

The infograph that most appeals to me is the sixteenth on the list, A Taxonomy of Shakespearean insults by subject. Honestly, this is just so entertaining to me that it couldn't not make the cut for this analysis. I think that its purpose is to not only be comedic relief for some, but also informative to those that are not so familiar with Shakespeare and his specific style of writing. The mode of this infograph is visual, and for now the media is through social media. However, when the product is in its true form a poster, it is paper (still visual), but distributed differently. The main audience for this infograph is Shakespeare fans. Not only will they appreciate this, but they will also understand what is being displayed. Although this may be true, the audience could also be people that are interested, yet not familiar, with Shakespearean language. Furthermore, the design is visually pleasing and well-organized. The coloring of the paper gives it an old feel, just as the language does, but the colors are also muted which contributed to the overall genuine vibe. The infograph appeals to the majority of peoples' logos. The logic and information utilized are the most attracting and alluring parts of this product.
