Rhetorical?


Once I googled the meaning of the word Rhetorical, I had a more of an understanding of what my blog was supposed to be about, but still a little confused. So here goes nothing.....After selecting a debatable article or essay that interests me, I will start with an introductory paragraph that gives a brief explanation of what my article is about. I will also include if I agree or disagree with the author and if they were convincing enough.  After the first paragraph I will build the body of my essay that gives details that support the beginning paragraph. Within the body of my essay I will explain what emotions that the author is using and what format is being used. The ending paragraph of my essay will resemble the beginning paragraph. I will again summarize what the article or essay was about and give my conclusion on if I was convinced or not and why or why not.

  3. Sarah,
    I’m glad I wasn’t the only one having a little trouble understanding what rhetorical meant! Although you said you were a little confused about the meaning of rhetorical, you did an excellent job summarizing what our assignment is about. Like you, I am a little nervous about this writing assignment. Hopefully we’ll figure it out!
