Profile

  • 1)I thought that author gave enough background information to illustrate why Alewitz was the natural choice. The profile talks about his job as a factory and office worker before he became a painter. Also he has experience in creating murals for different kinds movements such as unions and local causes that would make him an effective choice including his education and working background. The strategy of letting the question float throughout the profiles makes you the reader decide for yourself based on the evidence you gather as you read is it true or not.
  • 2) The profile creates a dominate impression of Alewitz by starting off talking about how he happiest when helping amateur painters with ideas for murals that could have impact on their community. Also he dropped out of school to join a movement which is a dominate impression that he follows what he believes in.
  • 3)I believe that Buhle's evaluation of Alewitz's is that he wants citizens to have self pride in themselves and their work. Furthermore understanding history and learning from it by getting educated so they can have a better future.

 I like that you choose to write about the rotunda in the state capital. I think it’s something that has a very significant place in the state history. The capital is the center of Madison and is very important place politically. I too remember last year it was where the union protested for many days to have their voices heard. I think it’s a good topic because there is alot of areas that you can touch when writing your RA.  You could possibly talk about the history of the rotunda and how its encounter today?  That is just one idea of many that come to mind when I think about the capital. I think you will have a fairly easy time gathering info because the rotunda is such an important place.

My object of analysis is the Camp Randall arch and I choose this particular place because it symbol of memory. It serves as a memorial to honor the Wisconsin Civil War soldiers who fought and also trained on surrounding grounds. I selected the Camp Randall arch because it gives you a sense of  school pride and make you feel that you are apart of something bigger than yourself.
Reflecting on the memorial it stands as a symbol of memory. It personally influences me to think about the old Madison and wonder about life during them times whenever I walk through it. Question that I have for RA is where would I go to obtain facts other than just Google on the Camp Randall ach?

Rhetorical analysis is a way of persuading, but also breaking down the argument into parts to interpret how they all fit together. Planned Parenthood purpose is to provide educations on sex and healthcare to all ages. Through a establishment of many collective memories in which the organization was created, it achieves its purpose.
