San Diego State RWS 280 Rhetorical Styles, Elements and Patterns
Humanities
I want you to read the 3 readings I have provided down below and take some notes on them. They don’t need to be the craziest notes, just a good amount so my teachers sees that I’ve participated and did what he asked me to do.
Please take notes on these readings. We are going to be analyzing this author’s rhetorical strategies and appeals. What do you find interesting about this author’s writing?
These are all things you should include in your notes.
To get started on our analysis of Gladwell, I want you to take notes on a couple of things:
- The rhetorical appeals — ethos, pathos and logos (you know what those are and we’ve talked about them in conference).
- Certain style elements, strategies and/or patterns that you notice in his writing. These are three essays by the same author:
we’re trying to identify some elements of style.
The last reading is a PDF: https://blackboard.sdsu.edu/bbcswebdav/pid-4749367…
You don’t have to analyze the readings, just do what my teacher asked by trying to identify the appeals he uses, the certain elements, and identify some elements of style.
These notes just need to be 1 page should not be no more. Thanks
