According to Aristotle's classical approach, a speech includes three main parts: the orator's "ethos" or credibility, the argument or "logos," and the emotional appeals or "pathos." The proof, also known as "logos," refers to the supporting material and evidence that the speaker presents to prove their argument. Therefore, the supporting material in a presentation constitutes the speech aspect referred to by Aristotle as "the proof."
