Parenting

parenting:explaining what kind of lifestyle the Brodericks had at home. We know that Dan is mostly away from home so your writing should revolve more around Betty. However, you still have to include how both parents have had an influence on the children

Remember, a rhetorical analysis is an interpretation—based upon strong, reliable evidence, including uses of language—of strategies and symbolism in rhetorical situations of communication and debate, including appeals such as ethos, pathos, and logos.

Your interpretation of how how a person or persons involved in the Broderick divorce/murder use/s uses rhetoric (such as logos, pathos, and ethos) to create conversations about societal issues within the context of an unusual criminal case

• A response to and contextualization of ideas drawn from diverse identities and viewpoints

• An analysis and assessment of the argument’s relative strengths and persuasiveness

• A consideration of the intended audience in society for the rhetorical arguments that you analyze

• Four (4) secondary sources (texts, etc.) besides the texts that you have been provided (although you may use those as well). Secondary sources help provide evidence to support one or more specific claims within your body paragraphs, as well as your main argument (your thesis).

• Strong evidentiary sources may include, but are not necessarily limited to, reputable newspaper and magazine articles, books/book chapters, and academic journal articles. Look for sources related to either the Broderick case or the general topic/s you’ve chosen. Your best strategy to begin with is to look through the MSJC library databases (Links to an external site.). After that, check the resources listed in the PowerPoint below.
