A Rhetorical Analysis On Opus 13
Opus 13 has different tempos. I can hear three arrangements, the first being really slow and elusive, then slowly picking up to adagio cantabile, while still slow there is a singing pace, and then picking up into a quick and rapid period. The sonata was created to bring emotions of grief or sorrow, and you can tell when the song is so slow and elegant, this is the sorrow, and during the quick pace, I think this would represent rushing of emotions and anger. I enjoyed listening to this piece, I like the way it flows in and out of these states of emotion.

    Sometimes leaders can get distracted, even the great ones, but it is their job to realize that they made a mistake and must suffer the consequences. Some leaders only lead for the glory. Everett from O Brother Where Art Thou is an amazing leader and his men looked up to him. Although Everett can be considered a good leader, throughout the journey he usually seems to care for his own self. Although the Coen Brothers appear to provide Ulysses with a sense of leadership in O Brother Where Art Thou, in reality they portray him as a selfish, desperate man in order to suggest that a life where one only thinks of themselves will lead to destruction.…

That evidence included: facts, examples, and deductive and inductive reasoning.…

    During canto 34, Dante uses an incisive tone. Dante uses words like risen from the ground, fear, blood ran cold to illustrate the feelings that Dante was going through during the last circle of Hell. He uses this tone to describe how scared Dante was and how much horror was in such a cold, icy place. The tone is created by using vivid imagery, to illustrate the scene, to give the readers an understanding of what it might feel or look like. He uses visual imagery by using words such as "white and bile" or "shaggy coat". These and other types like auditory, taticle, gustatory, and olfactoy types of imagery were used to have the feeling that the reader was within the ninth circle of Hell. This imagery gives the reader a sense of what it might…

    In Machiavelli's The Prince, hints of future democratic theories can be pulled out of Machiavelli's plan for the success of a prince of a state. Within Machiavelli's concentration of plotting out successful achievement of a stabilized state within a principality, he often reveals the importance of the satisfaction the people within the governing walls of that principality. One of the themes to Machiavelli's plan included the dismissal of the affection of virtue of the nobility as well as the significance of an honest people. Even though Machiavelli may have had other motivation for the writing of "The Prince",…

    All can relate to that one special time of the year, Christmas, when whole families unite and spend hours endlessly sharing stories, making memories, and of course, opening presents! What happens though, when all of the sentimental value of Christmas is replaced solely with physical value, the gifts? What would Christmas be like then? Richard Rodriguez takes the readers through one of his annual Christmases and brings to light, through his thoughts, the disconnect that exists between himself, his siblings, and his parents. Rodriguez’ chronological presentation of events with flashbacks, short, abrupt syntax, light-hearted attention to detail and concerned tone contribute to suggest his worried attitude toward his family.…

    In the essay, “Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have ‘Nothing to Hide’”, published on May 15, 2011, Professor Daniel J. Solove is trying his best to convince his well sophisticated audience that the issue of privacy affects more than just the everyday people veiling a wrong doing. His argument focuses around ethos, and a lot of it. Although there are some logos and pathos, they aren’t as nearly as strong as his ethos. In the type of society that we live in today, privacy has become more and more broad. Everyone sees it on an everyday occurrence just about; including on social networking sites, HIPAA forms, or even with people just simply observing you and what you do. This could be anything from talking on the phone, to searching something on the internet. This essay is ethical as well as logical in tone, appealing to his audience. He starts this argument off with his “I’ve got nothing to hide” argument, which is mentioned in arguments regarding the government’s gathering of our personal information as well as data. Solove explains how this argument goes from a faulty definition of what privacy truly is, as well as what it retains. The importance of the nothing-to-hide argument says that since the information will not be revealed to the people of the public, the “privacy interest is minimal,…

    The importance of conclusion cannot be ignored and it is one of the most important part of the sacred rhetoric. Just as a rhetoric without introduction is unskillful way of starting an argument, thus, likely to lose audience, the sacred rhetoric without conclusion will be awkward and incomplete. The purpose of all rhetoric is to produce a practical determination of the hearer’s will. The purpose of conclusion is to bind all heads of the discussion together and combine their strength, thus, to draw hearer’s irresistible conviction for their duty. Conclusion, henceforth, evinces the unity of the discourse.…

    “Shitty First Drafts” by Anne Lamott, is a hilarious must read for junior high school students and any other aspiring writers. Her essay inspires comfort and confidence in writing a first draft. It concretes that all writers experience the “shitty” first draft. Anne Lamott wrote this instructional information in 1995, but it is timeless information. She blows the idea of writing an immaculate first draft out of the water. Anne supports the idea that bad first drafts will almost always lead to better second, third and final drafts. She symbolizes the first draft to be like a child. Where you put all your thoughts and emotions out there in words on paper, you go all over the place, you say all kinds of ridiculous things, and all with the intention of coming back as a more rational adult, (the only one to read this draft), to fix your child-like writing into a more complete and coherent written masterpiece. Beginning writers, (and any other writers), will get a better understanding on starting the writing process with a bad first draft and that it can lead to an amazing final written draft.…
