In her writing she uses ethos, pathos, and logos. Anzaldua tells us about her bringing up in an American school system. Her Ethos increases as she describes us what she’s been through and experiences. She tells us about her different struggles she’s put up with as her teachers deeply enforced her to forget her roots and adapt to an American way of thinking and speaking. Her knowledge and experiences of using different languages that are forms of Spanish, give us reason to listen to her. When she lists the different languages she uses and Spanish phrases she appeals, she appeals to anyone who has had difficulty with language struggles.

    Smiley Smile is the twelfth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys. It was released on September 18, 1967 and managed to reach number nine on the UK record charts. In the US however, it was not perceived as well and only managed to reach spot forty-one. The CD comes off weak compared to the album Smile, which was a much more well-constructed LP that was never released by the Beach Boys. Smiley Smile took a lot of its inspiration from Smile, the most notable change being that four pre-existing songs from smile were taken to Smiley smile with significantly scaled down arrangements. This however does not make Smiley Smile a bad CD. There are many elements to Smiley Smile that made it an album that stood out for its time such as its Lo-fi…

There are some though that have suggested that the concept of a functionally unified system should be abandoned because it is grounded mainly in historical concepts of brain autonomy that are no longer accepted as…

Johnson-Laird and Oatley conducted a large analysis of 590 English words that we use to express emotion verbally and found that there are numerous ways that our emotions can be expressed. In there analysis one of there concerns is that you can not tell if the word describing the emotions is being used subjectively (Deckers, 2010). The results from there analysis allowed them to classify the words that we use to describe our emotions into five categories: anger, happy, disgust, sadness and fear. In the study the participants were placed into one of the five categories in the grouped it showed that people generally do not categorize the words we use for emotions in the same manner. One participant categorized all the words with he was given 135 of then and put them all into only two categories and labeled them as positive or negative. As a statistical analysis it was found that people in general found there to be six categories: joy/happy, surprise, love, anger, fear, and sadness; these categories represented an emotion prototype (Deckers, 2010).

    Of Mice and Men Emotions

    • 3 Pages

    In the following essay I will be writing about and exploring what emotions Steinbeck conveys in his novella ‘of mice and men’. The novella was the second of Steinbeck’s ‘dustbowl’ trilogy. These books were based on Steinbeck’s own first hand experience against the back drop of depression-era America where he became concerned with the exploitation of migrant workers and exposing the institutionalized prejudices ( racism, ageism and sexism) of the migrant workers themselves, hence the trilogy. The novella shows an effective state of consciousness in which joy, fear, sorrow and hate is experienced as distinguished from cognitive and volitional state of consciousness. The main theme/ emotion that are conveyed are loneliness. Steinbeck uses many different linguistic language techniques to depict this. These include: adverbs, speech verbs, imperative verbs, adjectives, abstract nouns, rhetorical questions and many more.…
