Certainly, it contains sex and violence, characteristics of any age, but its strength is in its use of language, its power is in its structure. Ragtime accurately reflects the turn of the century in the “awakening” of the consciousness of women, the rush towards industrialism, the struggle for racial equality, and the horror of working conditions for immigrants. I can see myself pulling a tad bit of information from this book just because it talks about the racial issues that was faced back then that caused a lot of controversial issues. Would I recommend this book to others? I would be cautious to whom I recommend this to, because of the censorship, and the controversial issues; but, it does help with certain
Marked Women Deborah Tannen’s, Marked Women (1993) claims that all women are marked linguistically and by the actions they take and there may not be any way for women to avoid this circumstance. Deborah shows the changes that must occur in language in order to make speech more feminine. I think Deborah Tannen’s intention is to enlighten readers to the differences between men and women using language and show how it translates into the visual world. Tannen’s work appeals to both sexes in an attempt to connect with the reader through familiarity. It was interesting to read this particular selection because I agree with and identified with most of what Deborah Tannen says.
Anwar Sadat, Aung San Suu Kyi and Faith Bandler in their respective speeches “statement to the Knesset”, “Keynote Address at the Beijing World Conference on Women” and “Faith, Hope and Reconciliation”, all skillfully manipulate the art of rhetoric to explore the deeply held ideals of courage and unity. In doing so, they built their own ‘ethos’ as a speaker and establish a ‘pathos’ with their audience, which not only allows them to explore the importance of these ideals, but allows their texts to be relevant to modern contexts. Sadat uses anecdote and metaphor to explore the notion of courage. Sadat’s motives to negotiate a peace treaty were highly criticized by both the Israeli and Arab community. To combat this, Sadat uses an anecdote in response to the question of what he would do if Israel offered him an invitation; he states “I will accept it immediately.
Tykwer manages to encourage the viewer to consider how women need to be strong willed and decisive in a male dominated world. Tykwer also manages to show how Lola was used to develop a message in the visual text Run Lola Run. BODY PARAGRAPH 1: Tykwer used clever camera angles to emphasise who has power. In the first bank scene, Lola is viewed from a high angle to show that she is being dominated by papa. Tykwer also uses low angle when viewing Lola’s papa to show his power.
By feeling this way the reader is more likely to understand and consider her point of view. She believes that he has the most potential for the production of these effects, which ultimately means he is the superior choice. By the establishment of ethos and it’s combining with reason and emotion, Morrison’s claim becomes more effective. Through all of these appeals Toni Morrison makes her purpose and claim known to the reader. She proves that in her eyes Obama is the best candidate for president and can easily convince others of her opinion with the use of ethos, pathos and logos.
After reading Dorothy Height’s Open Wide the Freedom Gates, I am now convinced that Height is a really powerful person. She has a unique way of overcoming the hardships of racism and she tells exactly why people are racist. Racism is exist all around the world and one factor of racism is privileges, and to help prevent racism, there is cooperation. The issue of racism is connected to Michael O. Emerson’s article about race and religion, Jeffery Reiman’s article about his view of racism, and Amy Braverman’s article about the effects of a person’s name when it comes to getting interviewed for a job. There are many reasons to why people tend to be racist, but one contribution to racism may be each person’s privileges.
Note: this is copy and pasted from another source... Eleanor Roosevelt establishes credibility by building her speech on the very reason so many audiences around the world deem her a credible source. Her speech discussed the pressing issue of human rights. Her prior credibility, intelligence, and goodwill established a foundation for which the audience to trust. Her prior credibility assured the audience that she shared similar values of freedom and democracy. She also demonstrated her value of universal human rights through using these terms in a “we” sense versus the “I” sense.
These classifications among men and women help to set a barrier to show the differences each gender has on society and how these common tendencies they acquire start to develop who they are. As Thompson points out it is clear and easy to discover a females writing from a males writing because it is simply the fact that, “women talk about people, men talk about things” (Atwan 89). These trends are what have been labeled as the common capabilities and expectations of each
Globalization has played a key part in integrating Pro Mujer in to Latin American countries. International committees and human rights conventions such as the UN declaration of Human Rights, the International Civil and Political Rights Convention, and the International Social and Economic Rights Convention have made it possible for women’s organizations to put their issues on the political agenda. In fact, the Beijing Markert 2 Platform of Action states “national machineries for the advancement of women are key to the coordination of government policies. Their principle task is to support the incorporation of the concept of equality between men and women in to all spheres of policy and at all levels of government” (Jaquette). Globalization has played a strong role in making policy changes.
