In this assignment, you will analyze the rhetorical strategies—and whether these strategies are effective—of one of the following: Adichie’s “We Should All Be Feminists,” Graff’s “Hidden Intellectualism,” or Gay’s “The Illusion of Safety/the Safety of Illusion.” Choose just one essay. Your analysis should include an assessment of the context and the rhetorical situation as well as a close analysis of rhetorical appeals. Identify the argument the author makes. If you had to summarize the author’s stance, what would you say is their stance? Now, how does the author develop and support that argument? What strategies and devices do they use? Note key passages, recurring phrases or images, powerful metaphors or analogies, use of real-world examples, and any other textual elements that advance his/her argument. Since ethos, pathos, and logos are universal elements of persuasive writing, you ought to discuss how the author uses one, two, or all three of these rhetorical appeals, as well as other factors that impact the strengths and weaknesses of the author’s argument. Yes, use the words ethos, pathos, and logos in your analysis. Ultimately, you should offer a clear evaluation of their work by addressing this question: How effective is the author’s message?

Homework Exercise Set 5.2, Part I
LINK TO TEXTBOOK: https://library.lol/main/10C82D0D35FE260F3B2240ABF…
This is the homework for Module Five.
Exercise Set 5.2, Part I, pp. 245-246.
We are examining argument validity. The statements in a deductive argument do not have to be true in order for the argument (the argument form) to be valid. We are only examining form–deductive form of the categorical syllogism. Does the conclusion follow from the premises is the question–not are the conclusion and premises true.
Do your work offline. When finished, then just copy and paste it into the submission device.
You don’t need to copy these instructions here. You can use them as an outline and then eliminate everything that is not part of your answers.
Make sure that you include each item number. Separate each item by a space or two, and place each element of your answer for an item on its own line. Use my example below as a guide. I have done item #2, so you will start with #3, then #5, etc. (skipping the starred items).
You don’t need to copy and submit the diagrams. The diagrams are inside the homework assignment anyway, so if you need to do a last minute check before clicking submit you can check inside.
Just do the following:
Label the terms of the argument
Present the argument symbolically, i.e., using the labels
State which diagram applies
Explain whether the argument is valid or not valid–how you can tell
We will use only the Boolean standpoint. (for example, in this exercise All A are B does not imply that there are some A and they are B. In the diagrams, then, All A are B would not be understood to introduce an X into the picture. Only statements that begin “Some A are…” or “Some A are not…” introduce an X representing a something that is there. Use these labels:
S:
M:
P:
Display each argument in standard form using the S,M,P labels (instead of xyz)
all x are y
all y are z,
————
all x are z
etc.
NOTE: in each exercise problem I have started the labelling process for you.
The selected diagram should match your argument display.
You do not need to draw a diagram. Just select the appropriate diagram by its designated letter from the ones displayed below (e.g., Diagram A, Diagram B, etc.). They are jumbled, so you will have to look them over to find the one that matches for each item.
Instructor Example for item #2 (so you will start with #3)
Diagram Z (for #2)
S: fossil fuels
M: renewable forms of energy
P: combustible gasses
No S are M some P are S ———————
Some P are not M Diagram Z Validity: the argument is valid. – X is clearly inside both P and S, but not inside M. So there is something, some combustible gases, which are not M (are not renewable forms of energy).
Select from the following Venn diagrams (select “Diagram A”, or “Diagram B”, etc).
There should be one that fits each of the non starred numbered items, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11
Be sure you label the terms (the subject and predicate expressions of the premises) and include that in your answer. Your labeling must match the diagram you select in order to make any sense.
Remember, the labels represent terms, not sentences. A sentence (a premise or a conclusion) combines two labels like “All S are P” or “Some P are not M” — your premises and conclusion will look like that. S, P, and M represent the key content terms of the premises and conclusion., “All dogs are barking animals” , then with S labeled for dogs and P for barking animals would be All S are P.
So, your argument display will express sentences (e.g., All S are P, Some T are U)
Diagram ADiagram BDiagram C
Diagram DDiagram EDiagram F
Start here with:
#3
S: individuals truly concerned with the plight
M: people motivated primarily by self interest
P: ________
