    Your critique should start with a brief introduction of the speech, including the topic/purpose of the speech and the reason why this particular speech is of interest to you. The remainder of your speech should be broken into paragraphs based on the following headings, and each of the questions asked under each heading should be answered in detail.

    The Most Important Thing to Analyze: The Speech Objectives
    Knowing the speaker’s objective is critical to analyzing the speech, and should certainly influence how you study it.
    What is the speaker’s goal? Is it to educate, to motivate, to persuade, or to entertain?
    What is the primary message being delivered?
    Why is this person delivering this speech? Are they the right person?

  • Book Analysis: The New Jim Crow

    $20.00

    All the critical research reviews for this course must develop and contain the following four main elements below:
    1. What is the book’s topic? Who is the author? What is his background?
    Do not merely state the book’s topic and author. You must define the topic in some depth and explain the academic background of the author. Is the author an expert on the book’s subject? How do you know? What makes the author an expert on the subject? Do you detect any biases in the author? Do these biases help or undermine the validity of the author’s arguments anywhere in the book? You must justify any assertions or claims that you make in developing your responses to these questions.
    a) What is the author’s point of view? What is your sense of the author’s point of view and why?
    (Often the introduction reveals clues on a author’s point of view. So read the introduction of each book thoroughly)
    2. a) What is the author’s major hypothesis? Look up in a good dictionary what hypothesis means. You must underline what you assert to be the book’s hypothesis.
    b) What kinds of evidence does the author use to support the hypothesis? There is a range of evidence in the development of any book. Authors use facts, figures, statistics, historical events, other research studies, etc. It is important to weigh and reflect on the evidence. Does this evidence help explain, support, clarify any assertions or claims that the author makes and why? Do not merely dismiss any evidence without justification and sound reasoning. Simply not liking a particular type of evidence does not make a book’s argument weak. You must demonstrate you have a stronger argument in support of your own judgments beyond mere opinion.
    3) a) What are your objections/contrary views on any of the book’s principal arguments or propositions. Your objections should go beyond mere generalizations and must be supported with alternative evidence that you will analyze.
    b) Are there other works by authors in the field? You must introduce and cite the works of four other authors (NOT WEBSITES) who have published (hardcopy publications) on the book’s subject. It is important that you justify your choice and use of these four authors. You must explain how and why their views and use of evidence are similar or different from those of the author of the book you are writing your review on.
    c) As part of your development of element #3, you must assess the evidence used in the book as well. You must explain if the evidence is convincing or adequate and if the sources used in the book are found to be acceptable by other experts.
    d) Determine if any of the book’s information or conclusion conflict with any other books you have read on the subject. How do you think this conflict can be resolved?
    e) If you determine there is no use of the traditional sense of evidence in a book, explain if texplain your reasons.

    4. You must end your critical research review with a persuasive conclusion that argues the book’s impact on you as a college scholar. You must state and explain your reasons for this impact. How has the book changed or influenced any ideas you had on the subject before you undertook this assignment. Explain your response with good reasons.
    (Pointers # 2 and #3 are the “heart” of any critical research review. These areas must be well developed. Avoid the temptation to fill overwhelming biographical information on the author to the exclusion of the central arguments propositions underlying the author’s hypothesis and subject. You are reviewing the author’s work and the scholarship in his or her book, not his/her lifestyle. While pointer
    #1 does require some information on the author’s biography and academic background, it is the subject of his/her book! And the biographical details must be made relevant to the overall purpose your writing of this review. What good is the author’s love of golf relevant to his or her books on Jim Crow? and his lack is in any way detrimental to the book’s hypothesis or not.

  • “The Black Death” Review

    $10.00

    This paper is a book review of “The Black Death” (by Rosemary Horrox). All the sources and citation ONLY can use from this book and my textbook, which named “Western Civilizations” (by Joshua Cole and Carol Symes)

    1. Black Death – Critical

    The first wave of the Black Death swept Medieval Europe between 1348 and 1350 killing around 50% of the European population. [1]  Medieval people, not knowing modern science, responded with fear, horror, and guilt to the loss and devastation that can be seen in their spiritual, physical and emotional reactions to the plague.  For you paper, I would like you to examine how medieval people’s response to the plague reflected at least one aspect of their worldview.  In your paper, you need to support your argument with specific examples from the Horrox book. These writings are all primary sources – the exact responses of the people who lived through this.  You should refer to at least 5 different sources from this book in your discussion.  Also, you need to define which aspect of Medieval world view you are discussing.  For example, you might look at how the plague reflects their understanding of divine punishment, or how their study of the plague reflects the role of magic in the medieval world.  To find these themes, you will need to consult Cole/Symes. (our textbook)

    [1] RosemaryHorrox, trans.,  The Black Death (Manchester:  Manchester University Press, 1995), 3.

    1. All the sources and citation MUST be found in these 2 books that I provided.

  • Constructing Identity: The Next Genderation

    $7.00

    Purpose: Unit 1 focuses on how constructions of identity are constantly appropriated by individuals and society. This Unit will give you practice in invention strategies such as prewriting and looping as well as generating a thesis.

    Readings (MLA Style Citation):

    Poisson, Jayme. “Parents Keep Child’s Gender Secret.” Emerging: Contemporary Readings

    for Writers. 2nd ed. Ed. Barclay Barrios. Boston: Bedford/ St. Martin’s. 2013. 364-370. Print.

    Pozner, Jennifer. “Ghetto Bitches, China Dolls, and Cha Cha Divas.” Emerging:

    Contemporary Readings for Writers. 2nd ed. Ed. Barclay Barrios. Boston: Bedford/ St.

    Martin’s. 2013. 396-407. Print.

    Topic: In this unit, we have looked at readings that examine the way gender, sexuality, and ethnicity are constantly being judged and subjected to examination by social and cultural designations. In some cases, identities can be transmitted in the most primary of interactions between a parent and a child and in other cases in loco parentis by the imperatives of social, ethnic, and racial norms. However, the overarching question in this unit seems to be whether or not identity can truly be shaped by personal endeavors—in which individuals make free choices—from options that appear to be set up or scripted by society and culture. Although identity can be a highly complex concept, we must all decide how our identity should appear and be attended to.

    Writing Task: Gather your notes, clusters, and any other invention strategies and respond to the following prompt:

    Is identity constructed by individuals or by society? Or both?

    Tips: Narrow your focus by writing about one aspect of identity: gender, sex, sexuality, and ethnicity. When taking “society” into consideration, please specify which institutions your argument focuses on, such as family, school, religion, military, government, and media. As you develop your introduction and thesis, avoid the usual binaries: advantages/disadvantages, pros/cons, and positives/negatives. You may certainly use these binaries as prewriting techniques to help you find a position for which you can argue. Reflect on everything we have read, discussed and written about for this unit. You may use the sequence of assignments to help you generate ideas and narrow your focus.

    Directions: Develop a clear thesis that is supported by examples from both readings for this unit. Quote the readings appropriately to support your argument, not the author’s. While personal experience may help support your thesis, should be guided by analysis rather than narrative or a summary of the readings. Must be 4-5 typed pages of 12-point Times New Roman font, be double-spaced, and have one-inch margins all around. Completion of all drafts is mandatory to complete this unit.

  • The Philadelphia Story

    $10.00

    The Philadelphia Story was produced at MGM for a 1940 release. The film was directed by George Cukor, one of the most important and reliable of studio directors of the Golden Age. Cukor was particularly adept at directing women and he remained a top choice of producers and actresses alike for comedies and musicals. Cukor was a director who excelled at pacing complex stories involving conflict between the sexes. The film is also a generic combination of Screwball Comedy (exploring conflicts about class, education, politics, and family life with witty dialogue), in addition to Romantic Comedy (the conflicts to delay or ensure love and marriage.)

    Questions:

    Pay attention to the mise-en-scène and characters:

    1. When we observe the locations and scenes of the Lord family mansion, what does it tell us about the family in terms of wealth and the kinds of possessions they value? How do we learn about them visually?
    1. How are we introduced to the major characters, Carey Grant, Katherine Hepburn, Jimmy Stewart, and Ruth Hussey? What do we quickly learn about them visually?
    1. How important are costume changes for the female actors, what do they reveal about their characters?
    1. What are some of the themes of the film?
    2. What else impressed you about the film?
