  • “Exploring the Argument and Rhetorical Strategies in ‘Never Trust a Snake’: WWF Wrestling as Masculine Melodrama” “Crafting Effective Word Choice: Enhancing Writing with MLA Citation Format”

    Assignment
    In this assignment, you will write two paragraphs which explore what “’Never Trust a Snake’: WWF Wrestling as Masculine Melodrama” is saying, and how it’s saying it. Your first paragraph will summarize the article, using your skills in summary, paraphrase, and quotation to explain the main claims to an audience who is unfamiliar with the text. The language of your summary should be independent of the original, and contain few, if any, quotations. The summary must be accurate and complete, establishing your understanding of the essay’s central argument and claims.
    Your second paragraph will explore the implicit arguments being made in “’Never Trust a Snake’: WWF Wrestling as Masculine Melodrama” using close reading and rhetorical analysis strategies. You will begin by selecting one or two moments in the source text in which how the text is arguing impacts what the text is arguing. You might consider focusing on organization, tone, diction, syntax, audience appeals, repetitions and contrasts, unstated assumptions, etc. After selecting a passage, explain in 5-6 sentences how the strategy the author took in your example impacts the overall meaning of the piece. Your goal is to draw clear connections between what the author is saying, how the author is saying it, and the overall effects these have on the argument of the essay. You are not trying to “decode” the text or show that it “really” means something different than what you see, so make sure that all of your claims are based in evidence that appears on the page and which you can clearly explain to your audience.

Using transitions, attributive tags, and strong verbs (e.g. “Jenkins claims”; “the author argues”), arrange your sentences so that they read logically and smoothly. Be sure to frequently check the draft of your summary against the original for accuracy, objectivity, and completeness. Review Wilhoit, “Summary,” particularly his discussion of informative summaries, as well as “Paraphrase X3” in Writing Analytically.
    In your analysis, use WA’s sections on “The Method” (25-32) and “Uncovering Assumptions” (56-58) to help you focus on the details in the essay, instead of your reaction to it. Connect these details to the author’s message to show your reader how [Author’s] choices in the passage you chose help communicate their claim to the reader. Based on the evidence that you analyze, craft a claim that shows how you see a connection forming between how the text is arguing and what the text argues.
    Criteria for Evaluation
    Does the Skill Focus completely and accurately summarize the essay’s central claim and its most important supporting details? Would the Skill Focus be understandable to someone unfamiliar with the author’s essay?
    Does the Skill Focus explore at least one significant passage from the text and the ways in which the author’s choices in that passage impact the overall meaning and argument of the text as a whole?
    Does the Skill Focus present and evaluate details from the article in a logical, clear, and accurate way such that a reader unfamiliar with “’Never Trust a Snake’: WWF Wrestling as Masculine Melodrama”
    Actions
    might understand the impact those choices have on the text as a whole?
    Does the Skill Focus remain independent and objective by paraphrasing the author’s words, using a minimum of quotations, and avoiding judgment or personal association?
    Does the writing use style and voice to demonstrate rhetorical awareness of the assignment’s audience and purpose? Does the writing make use of the expectations for academic writing, including transition phrases, attributive tags, strong verbs, appropriate word choice, and MLA citation format?

  • “Understanding the Difference between Fault and Responsibility”

    Summarizing the speech
    Again, note – There is one word used in the video that is not academically appropriate, but Will Smith is using his own vernacular and to take it out would ruin the effect of the video. Please be aware that using that type of language in an academic setting should be avoided. 
    Remember to include a topic sentence:
    Title + author + strong verb + main idea
    The video titled “Fault Vs. Responsibility” by Will Smith + (strong verb) + (main idea)
    Choose one of these strong verbs:
    Illustrates, explains, analyzes, describes, motivates…
    was just having a debate with my friend of mine, and we got stuck on the between fault and responsibility.  She kept talking about how something was “somebody’s fault, somebody’s fault,” and I was like “It don’t matter whose fault it is if something is broken if it is your responsibility to fix it.” 
    For example, it’s not somebody’s fault if their father was an abusive alcoholic, but it’s for damn sure their responsibility to figure out how they’re gonna deal with those traumas and try  to make a life out of it. It’s not your fault if your partner cheated and ruined your marriage, but it is for damn sure your responsibility to figure out how to take that pain and how to overcome that and build a happy life for yourself.
    Fault and responsibility do not go together.  It sucks, but they don’t.
    When something is somebody’s fault, we want them to suffer; we want them punished.  We want them to pay, and we want it to be their responsibility to fix it.  But that’s not how it works, especially when it’s your heart.  Your heart, your life, your happiness-is your responsibility and your responsibility alone. As long as we’re pointing the finger and stuck in whose fault something is, we’re jammed and trapped into victim mode.  When you’re stuck in victim mode, you’re stuck in suffering. 
    The road to power is in taking responsibility-your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone.
    Hey I want to thank you all for your response to my IG story- Fault vs. Responsibility.  There have been a lot of comments about that.  There was one thing I wanted to add though. I wanted to say that…
    Taking responsibility, accepting responsibility is not an admission of guilt; you’re not admitting that you are at fault.  Taking responsibility is a recognition of the power that you seize when you stop blaming people.  It’s not like you’re letting someone who wronged you off the hook; taking responsibility is an act of emotional self-defense. 
    Taking responsibility is taking your power back. 
    Smith, Will.  Fault vs. Responsibility.  https://youtu.be/USsqkd-E9ag January 30, 2018.  Date accessed 3/7/2022
