Coca-Cola having been an iconic, refreshing brand for more than a century, must have been accustomed to copyright infringement. In 1970, the Coca-Cola brand was faced with the theft of their slogan, “It’s the real thing” by the publishing company, Grove Press for their advertisement of the Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher. The executive of the soda company, Ira Herbert, wrote a formal letter requesting for the Grove’s discontinue of their slogan as it threatened the brand’s originality. Richard Seaver, vice president of the Grove Press, wrote a letter in response to the request and unlike Herbert’s polite and serious manner, Seaver appeared to be far more arrogant. However, the difference between their appearances in the letters illustrates that Seaver is significantly more convincing.…

It is horrific looking at this wild animal who usually appears strong, frightening, and fearless being destroyed and unable to do much about his life. The light on this image is solely on the bear to grasp ones attention and help portray the suffering and struggle the bear has been through. His weary looking eyes gazing into the distance with no hope of further life is a strong visual the author uses. In pain the bear is growling so hard for his life that saliva is coming out his mouth and there’s visible bits of blood on his nose. The poor bear looks skinny relative to a healthy bear perhaps of starvation and a limited amount of food in his habitat.…
When it comes to advertising, companies want to be original, but also do not want their originality to be copied. On behalf of Coca-Cola, Ira C.Herbert, in his letter to Mr. R. W. Seaver, addresses the issue Coca-Cola has with Grove Press advertising the phrase "It's The Real Thing". Herbert’s purpose is to ask Grove Press to not advertise their book with their slogan because he believes the slogan belongs to Coca-Cola. Seaver, an executive vice president, explains that their use of the slogan was discussed and came to the conclusion that it will help Coca-Cola in the long run. Whereas Herbert’s letter is formal and argues the point that Coca-Cola is the rightful owner of the slogan, Richard Seaver’s response is more persuasive due to his good humor and reasonable justification for the publishing company to use the slogan.…

Women have been for a long time, and are still today, considered to be inferior to men. Since the first official feminist movement in the 1960s, women’s conditions have gradually gotten much better. However, when the short story “The Yellow Wallpaper” was published in 1892, women were most often seen only as their husband’s wife and nothing more. Still, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, the author of that same story, decided to do something bold: through her use of irony, through her allusions to prisons when describing the house, and through her use of the yellow wallpaper as a symbol, she is openly criticizing the oppression of women.…
n Belanger Prof. Schrock ENC 1102 8 October 2015 Budweiser: A Rhetorical Analysis During the 2015 Super Bowl commercials a Budweiser advertisement, “Lost Dog”, had been released which accurately displayed the rhetorical strategies used in today’s media.

Budweiser attracts their audience in with the adorability of these animals while subliminally sneaking in one of their products to make it an overall successful advertisement. Budweiser also did a great job in making their advertisement…

Opposition is Just an Idea “The Bear” written by William Faulkner is a short story told through the eyes of the main character, Isaac “Ike” McCaslin. The short story portrays how “Ike’s childhood is structured on the promise and then the reality, of the participating in the autumnal hunt in the big woods” ultimately to capture the bear named Old Ben (Anna Priddy Go Down, Moses). Through symbolism, characterization, and imagery, William Faulkner proves that one should not let opposing views alter his thinking.

While getting further into the depth of the course has to offer we have been taught to critically look and analyze and filter Ads, articles, papers that are gender related. After frantically looking for the perfect Advertisement we could analyze for this project, we found a Tom Ford Advertisement online.

From the what the most little detail that is unseen to the largest detail seen.…
