Language and Meaning
You will respond to one of the prompts below on Thursday. READ THIS: These questions emerge from the context of our class. Thus, for example, essay prompt 3, "Do stories argue," might be open-ended, but only to a point. That is, you need to use the theory that corresponds to this question on our calendar.
1. Where do you belong within the seven traditions? Why? Have you changed your mind about where you belong within the seven traditions since the beginning of the semester?
2. How does Burke's theory of rhetoric differ from Aristotle's theory of rhetoric? How might you walk identification into building relationships with your peers in this course?
3. Do stories argue? Use The Breakfast Club to back your claims.
4. What is a disability and what are disability studies? What are the three models of disability? Could you apply a theory or concept we've studied this semester prior to Dr. Kelly's lecture to positively change perspectives on disability?
