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?
I think you chose a nice artifact, and I think it is interesting how close our artifacts are- I think that makes a lot of the "feel" of these artifacts similar. I think you could have gone into a little more depth in how the arch stimulates people who are around it, as well as its appearance.
ReplyDeleteI agree very much with your rhetorical analysis question. I think we will get some of the information from the archives, and perhaps personal references on campus. I agree with the sense of school pride and history, though, I get those feelings from the cannons, my chosen artifacts, as well. I'd like to know what you meant by "symbol of memory", and for a little more information on how you think it affects others. I think you could utilize that in your essay to make it very interesting.
