A Thoughtful Approach to Rhetorical Analysis
Download as PPTX, PDF1 like1,263 views
This document discusses three essential questions for analyzing rhetorical devices in texts: 1) Notice and describe your reaction to the text, as any reaction indicates the author's use of rhetoric. 2) Identify the specific rhetorical devices causing your reaction by learning terms like parallelism, hyperbole, and puns. 3) Determine the author's underlying purpose by looking beneath the surface rhetoric to understand their reasons for using various devices.

Inferring
Inferringjodi Kristenson

This document discusses the differences between inferences, opinions, assumptions, and predictions when reading texts. An inference is a conclusion reached based on evidence and facts provided in the text, while an opinion is a personal view not necessarily supported by evidence. An assumption is an inference without facts from the text to support it. A prediction infers what will happen next based on what already occurred. The document provides examples and strategies for making inferences, including linking facts to topics and using background knowledge along with evidence to reach logical connections.Crossover Short Answers

This document provides a rubric for scoring short answer responses that connect ideas between two given selections. It outlines four score points - 0 for no answer, 1 for a reasonable idea but lacking evidence, 2 for a reasonable idea supported by evidence from both selections, and 3 for a perceptive idea supported by specific, well-chosen evidence. The document also provides examples of sample questions and answers that demonstrate how to structure a response by explaining the idea for each selection and citing relevant evidence from both.STAAR EOC Short Answer Single Selection Rubric from TEA

This document outlines the rubric for scoring short answer responses to reading comprehension questions on the STAAR English I exam. It describes the characteristics of responses that would receive a score of 0 (insufficient), 1 (partially sufficient), 2 (sufficient), or 3 (exemplary). Responses are evaluated on whether the idea is reasonable and supported by accurate text evidence, the strength of the connection between the idea and evidence, and the depth of understanding of the text demonstrated.Open-Ended Response rubric

This document outlines the rubric for scoring responses on the EOC connecting selections task. It describes the characteristics of responses that would receive each score point from 0 to 3. A score point 3 response is considered exemplary and indicates an accomplished reading performance by being perceptive, aware of complexities, and making discerning connections across selections with well-chosen specific text evidence. A score point 2 response is sufficient and satisfactory, while a score point 1 response is partially sufficient and basic. A score point 0 response is insufficient and indicates a very limited reading performance.Allusions and Intertextual References in Novels - Student Task Sheet

This document discusses different reading techniques:
- Skimming involves quickly reading to identify key ideas and phrases without reading every word.
- Scanning is a quick read to find information related to a specific question without reading the entire text.
- Predicting engages readers by having them anticipate what may occur in a text and then refining those predictions.
- Previewing is a preliminary review of material by looking at titles, authors, and introductions to decide if the material is relevant and understand its structure.Strategies - reading
Strategies - readingmiguel.ostorga

This document discusses the reading strategies of predicting and inferring. It defines predicting as making an educated guess about what will happen based on clues, while inferring uses clues to draw conclusions that may or may not be directly answered in the text. The key differences are that predictions will be proven or disproven by the end of the text, while inferences may or may not be resolved. The document provides questions readers can ask themselves to make predictions before and during reading, and to make inferences during reading to check their comprehension.Lesson1[1] [Autosaved].pptx![Lesson1[1] [Autosaved].pptx](https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/lesson11autosaved-230828140452-2b0ec227-thumbnail.jpg?width=560&fit=bounds)

Carl Jung developed the word association test to explore a person's unconscious thoughts and complexes. In the test, a person responds aloud with the first word that comes to mind when presented with a stimulus word. Jung believed this could reveal deeper psychological issues usually outside of conscious awareness. Responses are analyzed for abnormalities like prolonged response times or unusual associations, which may indicate repressed experiences. While criticized, contemporary studies have found the test still provides insights into a person's memories, emotions, and psychological state when certain words are encountered.12th rrc essay

They are met by a villager who demands they leave due to the sacred ground. Meanwhile, a civil war has broken out in Thebes between Oedipus' sons Eteocles and Polyneices. An old prophecy states that whichever city Oedipus is buried in will be victorious, so Creon and Polyneices plot to influence the disgraced Oedipus. However, Oedipus refuses to help Polyneices and prophesies both his sons' deaths inOedipus the Tyrant

1) The city of Thebes was ruled by the tyrant Laius, who was warned by the Oracle at Delphi that any son born to him would kill him. 2) Out of fear, Laius abandoned his newborn son Oedipus on a mountain, but a shepherd took pity on the child and gave him to the king and queen of Corinth to raise as their own. 3) Years later, Oedipus in turn killed his biological father Laius in a dispute and unwittingly fulfilled the prophecy.The Art of Argument 2
The Art of Argument 2gswider

1) Arguments inherently involve uncertainty and risk as the audience must accept inferential leaps and conclusions are subjective to that audience.
2) For an argument to be justified, the arguer must present a rationale to convince a reasonable person to accept the uncertainty.
3) Arguers seek to cooperate in finding the best decision, with adversarial elements ensuring rigor, while respecting different perspectives.The Art of Argument 1

The document discusses the art of argument clarity and effective elements of argumentation. It states that an argument should be clear and refined like silver to avoid seeming wrong to an audience that likely disagrees. Effective arguments have a balanced presentation of both sides, controlled emotion, sincerity, integrity, and use of reason, logic, and other elements appropriately. Arguments must be definitive and not confuse creative writing styles.Rhetorical Devices

Ancient Greek Theatergswider
油
Ancient Greek theater originated as a religious festival honoring Dionysus between 550-220 BCE in Athens. Plays were performed outdoors with minimal technology, requiring large masks and exaggerated movements. Tragedies told of a noble character's downfall through a flaw, while comedies mocked society. The structure included a chorus that sang and danced, and up to 3 actors who responded while wearing masks that amplified their voices and conveyed emotion from a distance.Recently uploaded (20)

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spotssystemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AIthat could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.

A Thoughtful Approach to Rhetorical Analysis
- 1. Considering and Answering Three Essential Questions 1
- 2. A carefully crafted text is designed to attract the readers attention. 2
- 3. Experiencing a distinct reaction to a text indicates, with a fair amount of certainty, the author has used rhetoric to manipulate the reader. 3
- 4. The effect of rhetorical constructions can be sudden or subtle, either immediately apparent (we laugh), or understated (we puzzle over our feeling). 4
- 5. Noticing and pinpointing our reaction to a text takes practice and diligence. Nonetheless, these two actions together remain the essential first step in any rhetorical analysis. 5
- 6. Without question, any reaction to a text is the result of some type of rhetorical device. It remains our task to find those rhetorical devices and to explain their function. 6
- 7. A basic familiarity with perhaps seventeen or so specific rhetorical terms greatly enhances our ability to spot and analyze the source of any reaction. 7
- 8. --Anaphora and Epistrophe --Chiasmus and Synchises --Asyndeton and Polysyndeton --Cacophony and Euphony --Zeugma --Parallelism --Litote and Hyperbole --Synecdoche and Metonymy --Oxymoron --Tautology --Pun 8
- 9. The obvious features of an essay should not be sidestepped. Even though lacking sparkle and zing, an author frequently uses the basic structures of writing to convey her or his intentions. Some of these overlooked structures are Sentence styling (including length) Diction Tone 9
- 10. Determining the authors purpose remains. Can we winnow beneath the surface of the rhetoric and discover the reason behind the verbal play? 10
- 11. The third question asks for more than a simple answer. The interrogative pronoun why requires that we understand. Understanding is derived through thoughtfulness. 11
