This exchange between an executive of the Coca-Cola company and a representative of Grove Press is due to the use of the slogan “It’s the real thing.” Ira C. Herbert writes to representative R. W. Seaver and shows the use of diction and sentence structure to clearly state his point. Seaver writes back and expresses his opinion with sarcasm to state his feeling on the use of the slogan also. Ira C. Herbert, the executive of the Coca-Cola company wrote to Mr. Seaver feeling as though since the Coca-Cola company has used the slogan “It’s the real thing” for over twenty-seven years that the advertisement for Diary of a Harlem School teacher should discontinue the use of it. In his letter, Herbert uses diction to create a more professional tone so that this does not turn into a heated argument. This technique immediately establishes the letter as formal and a way to persuade the company to discontinue the slogan.
Also, as Source V comes from a modern historian, there are no personal affiliations had with Wolsey that may cloud the judgment of the writer, which therefore means there is no reason that the source would deliberately attempt to portray Wolsey in a biased way, making the Source more reliable. However, this claim of disappointment could also be open to other interpretations. Source V states that Wolsey’s domestic policies ‘seem’ to carry an air of disappointment, suggesting that this may not necessarily be the case. Whilst Source T is extremely negative in
c) I don’t believe my organization complies with all of the requirements because I don’t work so this does not apply. d) No one is responsible in my organization to make sure these compliance laws are met because once again I do not work so this does not apply. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA): a) It is important because it helps everyone out in a time of need and also keeps personal information safe from the public unless authorized. b) It impacts your IT environment because it lets everyone know what is supposed to be private or what how they are protected in a time of need. c) I don’t believe my organization complies with all of the requirements because I don’t work so this does not apply.
Contrary to the serious tone of Mr. Herbert’s letter, the letter from Mr. Seaver is immediately critical and mocking of Mr. Herbert’s letter. Mr. Seaver’s ingenious solution to the Coca-Cola Company’s issue is that “to request the sales personnel to make sure that what the customer wants is the book, rather than a Coke.” His statement is satirizing the ridiculous idea of approaching a book company to revise their statement because it might be confused with a soda. In addition, Seaver mimics the format and use of words from Herbert’s letter further proving the purpose of Grove Press using the slogan. Seaver also uses a belittling tone when closing his letter “With all best wishes”
This setting by Salinger and Steers helps explore the concept and puts greater emphasis on the consumer society and the ‘American Dream’. As a time of tra ditionalism, affluence and materialism, society believed that their status, power and wealth was the key to true happiness. However Salinger uses Holden to help convey the corruption of this idea. Holden believes that all the people around him are ‘phoneys’ because they forfeit their morality to fit in with the conformities of society. While in Steers appropriation Igby rejects the ‘American Dream’ in which his godfather, D.H has achieved and Igby’s brother Oliver is corrupted by.
Again, Beatty tries to bring Montag down one last time, his dying words are quoted from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar: “There is no terror, Cassius, in your/ threats, for I am arm’d so strong in honesty that/ they pass me in an idle wind, which I respect not!” (Bradbury 119). Beatty mocks Montag as a “second-hand litterateur.” He underestimated Montag, and it cost him his life. That was what Beatty wanted though, to push Montag over the edge. He wanted to die because he was unhappy with his own life and saw he could not succeed in keeping Montag unhappy as
Tybalt completely forgets about Mercutio and says to him “Well, peace be with you, sir. Here comes my man.” This quote suggests that Tybalt was looking for Romeo and he saw his enemy. While Romeo and Tybalt are still arguing about their hatreds towards each other, Romeo gets insulted by Tybalt by calling him a “villain”. This was insult towards Romeo because in the reign of the Elizabethan time that word was very insulting especially for someone like Romeo as he comes from a noble family. Mercutio joins in the conversation and says “O calm, dishonorable, vile submission!
• “If you are a man, Winston, you are the last man.” Book 3, Chapter III Page 270. O’Brien tells this statement to Winston, which is essential to the entire novel. While interrogating Winston, O’Brien’s goal is to make him feel inferior to the point of no hope. Winston needs to believe that he is alone in this challenge against Big Brother. In this way people the chances of people challenging Big Brother are lessened.
All are white. The one man of honor in this phantasmagoria is 'Nigger Jim' as Twain called him to emphasize the irony of a society in which the only true gentleman was held beneath contempt.”-Russell Baker of the New York Times, 1982. This quote emphasizes the greatness of this book as an anti-racist and anti-slavery book. Anyone that thinks that Huck Finn or Twain are racist needs only to read this quote and their beliefs will immediately change because they will realize the context in which Twain was writing, and the point he was trying to emphasize; slavery and racism are horrible. They will only be able to do this if they think for themselves and challenge themselves to be open to new ideas.
Hannity said: “He seems to adopt the exact same language being used by the hard left in this country … He talks about global warming. He demonizes capitalisms (sic) and corporations …”x93 Brooks said: ”... it’s like he’s been sitting around reading lefty blogs, and he’s one of these childish people posting rants at the bottom the page, you know, Noam Chomsky and all this stuff.”x94 But the angle these Republicans missed is that bin Laden might be using reverse psychology— he knocks the Iraq occupation and backs some Democratic-championed issues because he wants to continue the Iraq occupation and undercut Democrats who might stop it95. The Iraq invasion and occupation has been a boon to bin Laden—letting him escape at Tora Bora, inspiring jihadist recruits, and bringing funds to al-Qaeda’s leadership in Pakistan. CIA officials concluded that bin Laden used reverse psychology in his prior video address to Americans, four days before the 2004 presidential
