In this passage, Charlotte Perkins Gilman highlights the theme that women must use their intellect or go mad through the use of literary qualities and writing styles. Gilman also uses the use of capital letters to portray the decline in the narrators’ sanity. This shows the decline in the sanity of a person because the words in all-caps is shown as abrupt, loud remarks. Gilman uses this method multiple times in her short story and this method was used twice in this passage. When the narrator wrote, “LOOKING AT THE PAPER!”, the major decline in her mental health was shown. Before this remark, the narrator only would put one to two words maximum in all capital letters. This remark has the total of four words which if a big jump from one …show more content…
For example, “just as a scientific hypothesis, -- that perhaps it is the paper!”. Gilman uses this hesitation to emphasize the realization of the narrator when she comes to the conclusion that the yellow wallpaper is the factor why John and Jennie are going crazy. This has some irony because the narrator is fully convinced that John and Jennie is going crazy but, the narrator is the one that is actually going crazy. Another time when Gilman introduced hesitation was when the narrator was convinced that Jennie was going to mess with the wallpaper. The narrator said, “what she was doing with the paper—she turned around as if she had been caught stealing, and looked quite angry—asked me why I should frighten her so!”. She added the hesitations and the actions of Jennie to add the tense mood in the room. This also enhances the actions of Jennie too. Another example of Gilman using hesitation to enhance her writing is, “Jennie wanted to sleep with me—the sly thing!”. Gilman added this hesitation to directly characterize Jennie in the opinion of the narrator. The final example of Gilman using hesitation is, “But I am here, and no person touches this paper but me—not ALIVE!”. Gilman added this hesitation to add meaning and emotion to the passage. The narrator adds “not ALIVE” to emphasize her meaning when she says that no one can touch the
Job declares this after Eliphaz has accused him of being wicked a second time. Eliphaz believes Job is not as wise as he appears, since he limits his wisdom to himself and does not listen to the wisdom of others. Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar have already accused Job of being wicked in the first cycle of speeches, and now the second cycle in “The Great Debate” has begun. Nevertheless, Job responds to Eliphaz’s accusations by calling his friends “sorry comforters” (Job 16:2) and declaring that his “friends are my scoffers” (Job 16:20). Job continues in his speech testifying that, although he is being accused of being wicked, his “prayer is pure” (Job 16:17), and he has not done any wrong.

Amekeco Brooks Jr. The 2016 election was driven by the fear, nostalgia, and bias of the American people, but was it rigged? The President-elect, Donald Trump, felt the election was rigged against him. That idea is nothing more than a baseless theory of Mr. Trump. To rig an election would be no easy task and mistakes are rarely made.

In the supreme achievement of his career, The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic use of rhetorical, literary, and stylistic strategies, such as dashes, breaking the fourth wall, and using colorful symbolism have been ever present. Whether describing the green light across the lake from Gatsby’s home to brief explanations of characters' motives directed directly to the audience, Fitzgerald’s style is easily seen. These stylistic choices and more can all be found on pages seven to nine in the first chapter of the novel. Here, Nick had just walked into Daisy and Tom Buchanan’s house. The mood is an awkwardly tense feel due to the presence of Tom and the long length of time that has passed since Nick saw his cousin Daisy last.
We have reached the end of the semester unconsciously. During this semester, we’ve practiced and improved our writing by outlining, composing, editing, and revising. Throughout the process, I discovered my strengths and weaknesses, meanwhile, I tried hard to refine my writing skills. By now, we have focused on a few types of writing: rhetorical analysis, critical analysis, and argument. Remembered our first in-class essay was a rhetorical analysis of an argument.
Top of page 144 to bottom of page 145 In pages 144 and 145 of “The Raisin in the Sun”, Walter sinks in the state of shock and despair as he makes his decision to sell the house to Mr. Linder.

Rhetoric is an important analytical tool in comprehending the message of a text while conducting research. Recent research of learning styles has turned out a wide range of facts, figures, and statistics. By studying rhetoric, a researcher can better identify unbiased sources. Over the past several decades, awareness of the three learning styles has grown significantly. As a result, many educators have endeavored to spread understanding of the importance of learning styles in the classroom.
Rhetorical appeals reveal the hidden message the character is trying to convey. The rhetoric also highlights the character’s emotions, feelings and the significance of the text. It allows readers to gain a better understanding of the characters. Arthur Miler, the author of The Crucible, highlights the importance of mass hysteria through rhetorical appeals. John Proctor, the tragic hero is a loyal, honest, and kind-hearted individual.
In Charlotte Gilman, “The Yellow Wallpaper” focuses on an unnamed female protagonist that suffers from “temporary nervous depression” that her husband, who is her primary doctor, treats her illness with the resting cure. Which does not allow her to do any activities that could overwork her or her mind leading her to keep a secret journal about her true feelings and motives? Gilman skillfully uses of tone, style, theme, and symbol conveyed a feminist ideal, presenting a first-wave feminism masterpiece. The understanding of the tone of a story gives readers a particular message of what the author feels about the subject.
Eventually, we realize that the woman in the wallpaper is the narrator. Throughout the story, the narrator 's mental state continues to deteriorate. Being both the narrator 's husband and physician, John assumes that he knows what’s best for his wife. However, in this essay, I will argue that Gilman portrays John as an antagonist or “villain” in her story because, through his actions, he is the main reason for his wife 's descent into insanity which proves that he didn’t know what was best for his wife after all.
