Thank you so much for taking the time to talk with me yesterday. I really enjoyed our conversation and learning some more about Jefferies.

It was also great learning more about the Generalist Program, which I believe helps associates to find a group where they will fit the best, without having to decide upfront where they want to be.

    David Vanderwerken Rhetorical Analysis

    To demonstrate, critic David Vanderwerken acknowledges that the most powerful of these inversions is the reversal of the relationship between father and son. According to Vanderwerken, the father will help the son make the transition from “dependence to independence” but in Night the “...roles are completely reversed; the son becomes the parent” (Vanderwerken 64). This transposal becomes extremely apparent upon Wiesel and his father’s arrival at Buchenwald. It is there that his father, already frail, completely breaks down; he speaks feverishly of things that never happened and relies more and more heavily on his son as a provider. An example of this would be when Wiesel discovers his father in his bed, crying that his neighbors were beating…

    Clive Thompson Rhetorical Analysis

    The Analysis of Clive Thompson’s Rhetorical Strategies “Clive Thompson on The New Literacy” by Clive Thompson is an argumentative piece on technology’s effects on the upcoming generation of writers.

The author’s stance was very prominent, but he provided a subpar amount of research. To fortify the notion that technology has a positive effect on students, Thompson utilized the appeal to authority, concrete examples, and statistics.…

    Scott Jaschik Rhetorical Analysis

    Initial Draft In the initial rhetorical analysis draft of Scott Jaschik’s “Winning Hearts and Minds in War on Plagiarism,” I noticed that there are some mistakes in specifying the audience, integrating sources, making a deep analysis, and organizing the structure of the paper. The writer of the draft could have made more analysis than summary, which is explaining the effectiveness of Jaschik’s use of the referred rhetorical choices. To give an example of illustrations as rhetorical choice, the writer mentions the episode in Jaschik's text where the instructor assigns her students an assignment to purposely plagiarize. However, he does not explain how successful these rhetorical choice were in persuading the audience.…

    Ron Rhetorical Analysis

    Trust was built, not only for Ron, but also for Denver. Until the situation presented, Ron still questioned the ability to trust Denver, and Denver questioned why he should be trusted, and why Ron would trust a homeless man with his money, truck, and daughter’s possessions. I believe that the situation is one of the most significant lessons of the book. Both men had to rely on faith, in a situation that could have become disastrous quickly. I believe that both, Ron and Denver, learned from the situation, and could trust without fear.…

    Tim O Brien Rhetorical Analysis

    Tim O’Brien conveys the narrator’s overwhelmed state by pulling the reader into the character’s experience with a personal narrative. Descriptive imagery and metaphors also contribute to increasing the reader’s understanding of the character’s tumultuous emotions. To make the reader feel a connection with the character Tim O’Brien, O’Brien repeatedly uses first person for the narrative of the character’s thoughts. The repetition of “I” causes the reader to subconsciously put himself or herself in the position of Tim O’Brien (1084).…

    Rhetorical Analysis Richard Louv

    In this passage, Richard Louv states that modern Americans still continue to lose what little contact they have with nature as time goes on, and this trend needs to stop. In order to persuade his intended audience, current adults who grew up in his generation, Louv speaks to them on their own terms by using emotional appeals. Specifically, Louv uses rhetorical questions that cause readers to fully reevaluate their stances on the matter, specific diction that evokes strong emotional responses, and anecdotes that most parents or generation X-ers can agree with. Louv’s rhetorical questions truly involve the audience in a meaningful way. It is nearly impossible to change someone’s mind without first asking him or her to evaluate his or her lifestyle from a different angle.…

    Mr. Tabor Rhetorical Analysis

    It is ridiculous to think that Mr. Tabor could ever kill Bob. As even though Mrs. Haley had done her fair share in characterizing a not so sane Mr. Tabor, the features I picked up from Mr. Tabor do not incline with the him who killed Bob. For example, in page 2, line 1 and 2: “Mrs. Haley had thought to herself thinking He stayed on, living in the house he’d spent his honeymoon in. Madge couldn’t understand his doing that.” Mr. Haley thought that would give an explanation of why Mr. Tabor is insane, and could kill an innocent man like Bob.…
