Famous philanthropist Stephen Hawking once stated, “We are all different. There is no such thing as a standard or run-of-the-mill human being, but we share the same human spirit.” In the world of George Orwell’s 1984, this shared human spirit is abused, neglected, and utterly destroyed. This is most apparent when O’Brien deconstructs the argument of Winston and, in turn, tears down his human spirit. While Winston clings to a persistent hope of the failure of The Party, O’Brien uses logos and pathos strategies to methodically tear apart this belief. This maniacal argument for The Party, the strong imagery involved in the interrogation, and the mental collapse of Winston produce one of the most thought-provoking, saddening, and terrifying scenes in 1984.

Starting this year, I thought English 102 was just going to be another general education requirement I needed to have in order to graduate. English has never been my favorite subject, so I guess it is safe to say that I was not super excited about this class. However, this class turned out to be different then I thought. It turned out to be more useful then I originally thought. English 102 was both helpful and fairly simple because of what what I learned, the effort I put in and how prepared I was.

n this excerpt of 1984 written by George Orwell (1948), Orwell describes about the forced indifferent emotions of Winston Smith after he was mentally tortured by the betrayal of Julia. Orwell builds his argument by initially using euphemism, and then describes how Winston festers, in a chronological pattern. He uses superfluous diction to support his main claim- how the argument between Julia and Winston contributed to Winston’s current emotional state. From his choice of diction, he seems to target people who are interested in History and old Literature.

A passage can be found at the beginning, middle, and end of The Help by Kathryn Stockett that shows great examples of tone, diction, and syntax. “Miss Skeeter look real confused. ‘The home… the what?’ ‘A Bill that requires every white home to have a separate bathroom for the colored help… Miss Skeeter, she frowning at Miss Hilly. She set her cards down face up and say real matter-of-fact, ‘Maybe we ought to just build you a bathroom outside, Hilly” (9). This early in the book, we have learned what Stockett’s opinion is based her tone, as well as how she presents Hilly and Skeeter. Hilly is first described through Aibileen, who doesn’t care for Miss Hilly at all because of the way she treats the help. We have already learned that Hilly is incredibly racist and self-entitled. Everyone has a Hilly of some

Living in a country that provides access to great health care, one would expect the United States to have a sufficient supply of medical professionals such as doctors. After all, the country has a booming population and is home to many respected institutions with driven and compassionate medical students. However, in the March 3, 2015 edition of The Washington Post, Lenny Bernstein addresses a relatively new problem in healthcare. In the article, “U.S. Faces 90,000 Doctor Shortage by 2025, Medical School Association Warns”, Bernstein successfully creates a real sense of this crisis through his use of logos and diction to address the expected shortage of medical doctors.

Ronald Reagan 's Farewell Address was an amazing example of conveying the fundamentals for freedom through an emotional and visual lesson. It is no wonder that the president known as the "great communicator" was successful in painting for us a picture of who we were, past and present, and the improvements in the areas of strength, security, and stability that this great nation, or as Reagan referred to in his speech of John Winthrop 's vision of it as a "city upon a hill", had achieved over the past eight years. This amazing example has even been considered one of the

The 13th amendment of 1865 made people consider the use of slavery as a legal form of punishment for criminals. The amendment raises concerns over if African Americans were ever actually free in the United States. Although it states that the institution of slavery is illegal, it also states that slave labor is legal if in the form of punishment for incarcerated criminals. In 13th, Ava DuVernay employs the use of ethos, logos, and pathos through a variety of ways. Through the use of these techniques, Ava DuVernay connects them with vivid imagery to really drive her point that the 13th amendment did not necessarily end slavery, it just added a loophole that enslavers were able to use.

Imagine the look on a veteran’s face as he notices players kneel in disrespect at the sound of the national anthem. Many fans and veterans were disappointed to see Colin Kaepernick, a quarterback in the NFL, refuse to stand while the national anthem was being played. Kaepernick’s actions insulted fans and hurt the sport. When America had no role in creating the racist tragedies, yet it is being disrespected for the incidents. The national anthem protests have not benefited democracy.

The work that I chose to write about is “The Homeless and Their Children” taken from Jonathan Kozol’s book, “Rachel and Her Children”. This is a story of a woman whom Kozol calls Laura and her four children that lived in a run-down hotel room in 1985.

O’Brien, part of the Party, told Winston, “‘You knew this, Winston,’ said O’Brien. ‘Don’t deceive yourself. You did know it--you always known it.’ Yes, he saw now, he had always known it” that he will get caught and knew the consequences of getting caught for thoughtcrime by agreeing to ‘rebel’ against Big Brother; which leads to Winston brainwash (Orwell 239). In 1984, it takes place in Oceania (a small country) during the 1980s, and in the Ministry of Love where O’Brien and Winston were placed inside to help Winston. Involved with Winston’s brainwash is Big Brother, the Party, O’Brien, and guards helping O’Brien. Throughout Winston’s process of being brainwashed, O’Brien used logos, ethos, and pathos to convince Winston to love Big Brother

I spoke with Mr. Anthony Jaspal and he stated that he received an permit for flood damage. However, he did not flood. He stated that some home in his neighborhood flooded. Nevertheless, his home did not receive any water. His address is 14427 Light Falls Court, 77429. He wants to know if he has to do anything any order to remove the flooding of his home off of any records that we may have. His voicemail is

Oscar Casares creates believable main character in the story “Mrs. Perez” and use figurative language gives the reader visual images. He uses the main character flashbacks of her life and it help the reader understand about Mrs. Perez. Bowling ball became very important in her life and she has many joyful moment during her bowling. Before she become this joyful person, her family has an effect on her life. Oscar Casares embedded Spanish help the reader learn about Mrs. Perez and it helps develop the story.

The short story of Benito Cereno cannot do much justice the first time around, as one must read it a minimum of two times to really understand the material. Melville's prose, which is paced rather slow and methodically, diction, and syntax, is not hard to read, but is quite difficult to piece together. However, as the strange incidents begin to pile up – the young black slave hitting the white boy without any reprimand from Cereno, the Spanish sailors seeming to motion to him, the whispering between Cereno and Babo, and the two blacks knocking down the sailors – the readers, as Delano himself, soon discover that all is not what meets the eye.

The two talks that I saw at the Classics Research Symposium were James Patton’s Omnes Dimitte Notas: Thyestes’ Loss of Stoic Masculinity over the Course of Seneca’s Thyestes and Tom Francis’ Problems of Verbal Aspect in New Testament Greek. These two presenters had different approaches to different subjects within their respective areas of expertise, but both presenters provided the audience with helpful handouts guiding them through their presentations.

In Marjane Satrapi's word-specific panel about refugees fleeing north on page 89, she indicates the perilous situation of the war through taxis escaping flaming iconography. The bombing of border towns in the Iran-Iraq war forces residents to abandon their homes and belongings in the hope of finding refuge in the northern cities. The foreboding, chaotic scene underscores a period of turmoil in Iranian history. The words of the panel state, “After Abadan, every border town was targeted by bombers. Most of the people living in those areas had to flee northward, far away from the Iraqi missiles.” Satrapi sets the backdrop of warfare with intense, slightly militaristic words such as “targeted,” “flee,” and “far away”. This being a word-specific panel, the graphic
