Andy Campbell's Tomato Soup Rhetorical Analysis

The excerpt from Mary Oliver’s “Building the House” serves as a way to describe what happens during the poetry writing process. Although Mary Oliver believes that writing poetry is hard work, she uses extended metaphor, juxtaposition, and point of view to describe the writing process in comparison of building a house, which shows that Oliver sees poetry as something that involves mental labor which is a different challenge than physical labor .

He had clients like Columbia Records, Glamour Magazine, NBC, Tiffany & Co., and Vogue. “I’m painting this way because I want to be a machine… anyone else can reproduce the design as well as I could” (Bolton). Warhol became known for his use of repetition. In fact, his most famous piece, 32 Campbell’s Soup Cans, was made up of thirty-two paintings of Campbell's Soup cans. The paintings were made with synthetic polymer paint on 32 canvases. Each canvas was 20”x16”. “I used to drink it. I used to have the same lunch everyday, for 20 years, I guess the same thing over and over” (Andy Warhol Art). 32 Campbell’s Soup Cans was first shown in the Ferus Gallery in 1962. They were displayed as if they were on a grocery store shelf. The general reaction to this piece was generally disappointing, especially in Los Angeles, but reactions were fantastic in New York. The cans are painted in chronological order in which each soup flavor was released. In my opinion, Warhol did a great job covering every detail and making sure each can was the same as the other. His use of silk-screening in this piece really made it stand out. I also love this piece because it is of Campbell’s Soup and Campbell is my last name. In 1964, Warhol moved to 231 East 47th Street, which he named The Factory. Here he hired assistants, painted, made sculptures, and even made

Michael Pollan's In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto is an eye-opening analysis of the American food industry and the fear driven relationship many of us have with food. He talks in depth about all the little scientific studies, misconceptions and confusions that have gathered over the past fifty years. In the end provide us with a piece of advice that should be obvious but somehow is not, "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." He follows the history of nutritionism and the industrialization of food, in hopes to answer one question….. how and when "mom" ceded control of our food choices to nutritionists, food marketers and the government.

By primarily utilizing pathological rhetoric through a colloquial tone, Mike Royko is able to effectively support his exposé of an argument in “A Faceless Man’s Plea”. Primarily, he is only using 33% of the basic rhetorical strategies; pathos. This usage is however justified in reference to his argument, in that his whole piece sets out to provoke an emotional response from the people who read it, in which the Veterans Association must thereafter appease due to the theoretical outcry the public would create in response to “blind, faceless Leroy Bailey[’s case]” (Royko 2). Although personally irritating, Royko does precisely what he set out to do, in that the VA undertook response in under 24 hours; Bailey would supposedly receive funds to complete surgical operations necessary to construct his fact to

The movie/documentary Food, Inc. came out in 2008, directed and starred by Robert Kenner. Kenners’ goal for this movie was to show the people of America the food they are eating and how there food is being processed, feed, treated, and killed. Kenner uses a very serious and

In the article “Turkeys in the Kitchen” Dave Barry provides plentiful amounts of ethos and pathos by implying that feminism aids men more than women. The author only indulges his own experiences, the readers only see through his point of view which is that feminism contributes to men more than women. However, these examples he provides are from his personal life, and he doesn’t ponder feminism outside of his household and his own opinion. Even though he has an abundance quantity of ethos and pathos examples, there is a deficiency of logos. Lack of logical assertions in his writing generates weak debating

The undeniable greed Napoleon possesses can only be fulfilled by giving the other animals the illusion of bettering themselves by not questioning his logic: “Boxer, who had now had time to think things over, voiced the general feeling by saying, ‘If Comrade Napoleon says it, it must be right.’ And from then on he adopted the maxim, ‘Napoleon is always right,’ in addition to his private motto of ‘I will work harder’” (Orwell 60). Because Animal Farm’s audience predominantly consists of working class citizens, they begin to feel sympathy for Boxer since he cannot recognize Napoleon is exploiting him exclusively for his personal goal of becoming a puissant leader; therefore, animosity towards Napoleon develops in the audience. Considering the animals promptly welcome Napoleon’s promise of a better life, they work towards exhaustion, unknowingly fueling Napoleon’s greed: "All that year the animals worked like slaves. But they were happy in their work; they grudged no effort or sacrifice, well aware that everything that they did was for the benefit of themselves and those of their kind who would come after them, and not for a pack of idle, thieving human beings" (63). Although the animals working for Napoleon are unaware he is gradually becoming more human and willfully betraying his fellow animals for his own benefit, it is evident to the audience that Napoleon is corrupt. As Napoleon cunningly achieves power, his greed continues to grow, the same as a totalitarian leader’s:

The time to accept the faults of men is now. Nationally syndicated columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner, Dave Barry, in his essay “Turkeys in the Kitchen”, affirms that there is truth in gender stereotypes surrounding men and their place in the kitchen, which, ironically, is not in it at all. Barry’s purpose is to confirm to his audience that men typically do not have the skills or knowledge to operate successfully in the kitchen. Moreover, in order to convince his audience, Barry adopts a humorous tone to mock his own impairment when it comes to the kitchen and to relate his impairment to that of the typical male population. Through the use of figurative language, relatability, and anecdotal stories, Barry convinces his audience of the truth behind stereotypical gender roles.

Have you ever been in a rush, low on cash, and looking for something to eat so you didn’t really have a choice but to grab a burger with fries at your local fast food place? Have you ever paused or stopped to think about where the burger really came from, or the process that went in to be made? The Food Inc documentary investigates and exposes the American industrial production of meat, grains, and vegetables. Robert Kenner the producer of the film makes allegations in this film and he explores how food industries are deliberately hiding how and where it is our food is coming from. He emphasizes that we should find out where our food comes from and why is it that the food industry does not want us to know. Food Inc. does not only uses compelling images, such as hundreds of baby chickens being raised in spaces where they do not see an inch of sunlight, it also includes the speeches and stories of farmers, families, government officials, and victims of the food industry. The four current problems facing today’s food industry are the reformed usage of the false advertisement within the labeling of products , mistreatment of farmed animals, and the harmful chemical in our meats. The documentary Food Inc uses very persuasive tactics that demonstrates strong elements of pathos, ethos, and logos make an effective appeal, while uncovering the dark side of the food industry.

In the novella Animal Farm, the timeline of early 1900s Russia unfolds in an allegory, with revolutionists Vladimir Lenin and Karl Marx sparking a rebellion against Czar Nicholas II. Subsequently, a social democratic party known as the Bolsheviks overthrew the czar, aided by two significant leaders: Leon Trotsky and Joseph Stalin. Even so, the newfound ideology of communism that Stalin introduced and quickly corrupted through propaganda proved to be just as oppressive as the reign of Nicholas II. Most importantly, this corruption and oppression was elucidated by British author George Orwell through the use of rhetorical devices in the allegorical satire Animal Farm, where the audience receives a glimpse into the cunning caricature of

Campbell's tomato soup is a form of pop art made from Andy Warhol, in Bridgeton, New Jersey 1898. Campbell's tomato was first sketched, not knowing that it was going to turn into a piece of pop art that is on the shop walls today.

Andy Warhol did a lot of paintings, mostly comics of artist or ads. The one that became his favorite one was the Campbell’s soup cans. The idea of him painting this painting came through an ad he saw at a gallery. This painting is different than all the paintings he has done throughout his career because it’s comic-strip painting.
