Albert Einstein's Rhetorical Analysis
January 24, 1936 Phyllis Wright, a sixth grade student, asked the question to Albert Einstein “whether scientists pray, and if so, what they pray for.” Einstein’s response to the students question was rhetorically effective. He managed to answer he question without giving her a direct answer. He went in-depth to explained the scientific response to pray.

    Rhetorical Analysis: The Manhattan Project

    In this article the Pentagon's grand rhetoric wasn't matched with any great influx of funding for science, and it wasn't clear how any one technology could help fight a loosely organized, deliberately low-tech enemy. In 2005, Iraq was experimenting with roadside bombs so to counter these improvised explosives, Pentagon officials called the academic community for the “Manhattan Project”. The Manhattan Project was basically a big bomb that the U.S. wanted to create to try to scare other countries. Six years later, the Department of Defense spent approximately $17 billion on countering improvised explosives but the vast majority of that money has gone on implementing known solutions such as stronger armor for vehicles and personnel, not advanced…

    Into The Wild Rhetorical Analysis

    Throughout the tragic novel Into the Wild, author Jon Krakauer provides an in depth analysis of the life and lonely death of Christopher McCandless. McCandless was a young man straight out of college, looking to find himself while hitchhiking alone in the bush of Alaska.

    Paley's Natural Theology Analysis

    At the outset of the nineteenth century in Britain, religious faith and the study of the sciences tended to exist in harmony with each other. The study of God’s Word, in the Bible, and His Works, in nature, were assumed to be two versions of the same ultimate truth.1 When William Paley published Natural Theology; or, Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity in 1802, he reinforced the concept of a designing God after positing that natural objects show evidence of design, emphasizing nature as God’s creation.2…

    The Old Testament of the Holy Bible gives many examples which provide modern man with guidelines for the use of scientific method. Millam (2008) explains that there is an underlying order in nature demonstrated by the patterns and regularities of God’s creations. These regularities can be seen in the forces of nature and are stable throughout space and time (Millam, 2008). The original classification of species, use of precise measurement, and even the first account of scientific research, are all included in the Old Testament of the Holy Scriptures. God gives scientists some clear frames of reference for seeking knowledge and truth in science.…

    Rhetorical Analysis

    Do you struggle to find equilibrium between excelling at work and spending productive, quality time with loved ones at home? With the technology that is available in the twenty first century, it is now possible for educated professionals to decide whether they would like to work from home and collaborate with family members to meet work demands. Alesia Montgomery is an African American Ethnographer who wrote “Kitchen Conferences and Garage Cubicles: The Merger of Home and Work in the 24-7 Global Economy”. This study was one of many published in 2008’s book entitled The Changing Landscape of Work and Family in the American Middle Class: Reports From the Field, which focused on “providing insights into the changing nature of working families in the United States” (1008). Montgomery’s main argument is that today’s modern society and global economy have enabled families to “merge work and home in quasi-entrepreneurial ways” (1018), which will in turn deepen the attachment between family members. Her secondary claim is that the merging of these two worlds does not come without a downside; your home will no longer “serve as a refuge from job pressures” (1018) and job demands may be “made more invasive by the use of innovative communication technology” (1019). The main purpose of this essay is to identify and analyze Montgomery’s main and secondary arguments, to describe two types of support she uses, how they help her claims, and to identify her intended audience.…

    In South Central, Los Angeles, there is a food epidemic taking place among the population. For miles and miles, the only easily attainable food source is fast food; causing the overconsumption of un-nutritious, greasy, and fattening food. This is the problem brought to the public’s attention by speaker Ron Finley in his Ted Talks speech, “A Guerilla Gardener in South Central L.A.” Finley explains how everywhere he looks in his native South Central, all he sees are fast food chains and Dialysis clinics opened due to the lack of nutritious food. Finley views the lack of a healthy food source as a serious problem, and brings up his point; there are miles of vacant lots throughout Los Angeles, all of which could be used for the cultivation of healthy fruits and vegetables to better the urban community’s diet and health.…

    Reading the whole article, the biggest things that stood out to me was on page 63; “It usually takes a lobster between thirty-five and forty-five seconds to die in boiling water.” I took some time to think and at first I came up with putting a lobster into a boiling pot of water. But I couldn’t find the metaphor in that because that was the main idea I wanted people to see. So I decided to draw a healthy tree falling into a wood chipper and how when it goes through a wood chipper, the time it takes to actually shred the wood into pieces of bark has its own time process just like when putting a lobster into a boiling pot of water.…
