I'm just remembering the context, main ideas and quotes for each speech. I personally wouldn't be able to memorise 14 different paragraphs holy shiz

I'm remembering proper paragraphs for the speeches I feel may be specified or something (Keating, Sadat, Pearson), and Suu Ki coz it's good

Then I'm remembering analysis for Atwood and Deane (<----- this one I swear).
I'm not sure if I'm safe with ignoring Bandler though :/ WHat do you think?

Lol I've memorised two quotes for Deane.

I really hope it's not Deane because I find it so hard to link to others. The only value I can talk about is unity. *sigh*

When in doubt, maybe don't link it based on thematic concerns, but instead discuss the different rhetoric features (logos, pathos, and ethos) and the ways each orator incorporates them into their speech?

Too hard to pull off and repetition of techniques within same paragraph

Not necessarily, I got 14/15 for both my mid-yearly and trial Module B essays and I followed that method. Of course you don't only talk about the rhetorical triangle, but it's not that much of a hindrance.
