Cohort Rhetorical Analysis
Thank you for everything, Rebecca Hopkins Razavi. I think I speak for the entire cohort when I say it's been an honor to be with you this school year.

We are extremely blessed to have opportunities/support systems like Hillman, and we should pay it forward at UMD. As Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story would say,"To infinity...and

    Nike, Inc. is known traditionally to be a brand suited for competitive athletes, with its origins rooted in selling athletic shoes, but over the course of recent years, the merchandise has expanded to include clothing and other gear to athletes and non-athletes alike. Nike has adapted its advertising campaigns to reach its eclectic audience by sponsoring globally renowned athletes such as Lance Armstrong. Though cyclists are in the minority of the athletic world and it’s fans, the campaigns involving Armstrong have been particularly persuasive because the overall message of the advert is focused on Armstrong’s battle and victory over stage three testicular cancer. The 2009 print appeared in Time magazine, proving to be emotionally powerful and broadly inclusive of its audience by elevating Armstrong to a status comparable to a hero.…

    In this particular Skittles commercial, that I may add has been banned from being broadcasted in the United States depicts two “lovers” on their honey moon. It depicts them in a bedroom having sex. It is very confusing top the audience in the beginning, due to the fact that the audience can be anyone from children to adults; in all homes throughout the nation. It is now a comical and very popular video that is now flooding the World Wide Web. Many people have seen this video, yet it has very controversial content within it.…

    Rhetorical analysis closely examines the text, author, audience and context one is interested in knowing more about. Their usually is a conflict in the information that one is trying to learn more about in order to make a decision or simply better understand the subject. A good faith attempt at a clean slated mind that suspends judgment of your own opinions, morale’s, and values is a requirement to gain a good analysis. You also, obviously, need a text with an author with the ability to determine what the context is about and who the audience is supposed to be. It is worthwhile to engage in this manner in order to gain properly from it. If you don’t, you’re not doing a rhetorical analysis and you won’t gain much in the way of better understanding. I consider the terms, processes, and information in this reading to be the framework that is necessary in order to be successful at a rhetorical analysis. Therefore not only being aware of these aspects but understanding them is seriously beneficial.…

    Sand between my toes and enjoying some sun while gathered around with a group of friends is what I call, a definition of a great time. The ad Tampax Pearl from Seventeen magazines sells the product through the use of rhetorical fallacies logos, ethos, and pathos. There are six fallacies, and throughout the magazine they are represented by the text, the women in the white bikini, and the beach: false cause, hasty generalization, non sequitur, and appeal to ignorance, false authority, and bandwagon. In the background are the sounds of waves clashing against one another, the sun beginning to lower, and the scent of a bonfire. The game of limbo used as an entertainment to influence laughter, and competition spread to one another.…

During his show “Killin’ Him Softly” Chappelle effectively uses rhetorical strategies by engaging his audience, understanding the culture he is addressing, as well as exemplifying the problem with racial stereotypes and the disparity of police brutality between the African American community and the white community.…

    Visual elements are an important component of many advertisements. Although the role of imagery in shaping consumer response has long been recognized (Greenberg and Garfinkle 1963), only recently have visual elements begun to receive the same degree and sophistication of research attention as the linguistic element in advertising (Childers and Houston 1984; Edell and Staelin 1983; Meyers- Levy and Peracchio 1992; Miniard et al. 1991; Scott 1994a). The area is now characterized by conceptual and methodological diversity, with a variety of new propositions and findings emerging. Historically four approaches can be distinguished, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. The archival tradition is perhaps the oldest (e.g., Assael,…

    In South Central, Los Angeles, there is a food epidemic taking place among the population. For miles and miles, the only easily attainable food source is fast food; causing the overconsumption of un-nutritious, greasy, and fattening food. This is the problem brought to the public’s attention by speaker Ron Finley in his Ted Talks speech, “A Guerilla Gardener in South Central L.A.” Finley explains how everywhere he looks in his native South Central, all he sees are fast food chains and Dialysis clinics opened due to the lack of nutritious food. Finley views the lack of a healthy food source as a serious problem, and brings up his point; there are miles of vacant lots throughout Los Angeles, all of which could be used for the cultivation of healthy fruits and vegetables to better the urban community’s diet and health.…

    As a year 12 student my peers and I are intrigued as to why we study a compilation of speeches that were delivered before our time to audiences in contrasting contexts? And how this has any form of relevance to a contemporary audience studying the HSC in 2013? Through study I have discovered the answer is that these carefully selected speeches all deliver universal themes that are significant despite the period in time and the audience to which they are delivered or in our case, studied. They challenge their audience’s perception of society and inspire them to ask questions and seek answers. In order for a speech to achieve textual integrity it must have ongoing contextual…

    I believe that the rhetorical strategy of narration is both seen differently in the article, “Unnatural Killers”, by John Grisham and the article, “The Case Against College Athletic Recruiting” by Ben Adler. Both appeal emotionally to the reader but one is a lot more logical in its approach then the other.…

    Well-known Sci-fi writer, Ray Bradbury, in his novel, Fahrenheit 451, illustrates that relationships reflect who individuals are and who they want to be. Bradbury’s purpose is to promote the idea that a person should have the courage to listen to their own beliefs and thoughts of happiness rather than to blend in with society. He adopts a disoriented and poetic tone in order to appeal to similar feelings and experiences on a non-realistic scale in his young adult readers.…
