Recognizing the enormity of conflict can often be difficult. In lines 41-73 of Book 22 of the Odyssey, Homer uses diction and juxtaposition of language to contrast the calm and flattery tone of Eurymachus with the harsh and stark tone of Odysseus, and to illustrate the magnitude of the conflict, as well as dialogue to illuminate conflict between the suitors and Odysseus. Homer utilizes these literary techniques to underscore the tension between the characters in the passage. Book 22 begins with Odysseus confronting the suitors about his dismay at them for occupying his palace with Penelope while he departed. Eurymachus then uses a calm tone full of flattery in an attempt to mitigate the conflict with Odysseus.
For example, the Nation of Islam, the American Nazis, the Ku Klux Klan, and much more are defended by the ACLU. The ACLU does not agree with the point of view of the individuals or groups rather they defend their right to have freedom of speech. They ACLU is not anti-anything. The only thing they fight are the attempts to take away or limit one’s civil liberties. The ACLU believes that once the government has the power to violate one person’s rights, the government can use that power to violate every person’s rights.
Reader’s Response Journal Entry 1: In chapter one, Virginia Woolf uses logos as a literary device to show the relationship between the food someone eats and what they are capable of doing: “The human frame being what it is, heart, body and brain all mixed together, and not contained in separate compartments as they will be no doubt in another million years, a good dinner is of great importance to good talk. One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” (Pg. 18)
Aristotle had a method of persuading people that toyed with their emotions, this was one of the three Aristotelian Appeals called Pathos. Commercials are notorious for using pathos in order to make a viewer feel terrible about a situation, that in reality has no effect on that individual. In this response, the example used to explain Pathos will be an anti-smoking commercial. The commercial portrays a child walking into an airport with his mother and the more then disappears, for what we assume to go smoke, the child begins to cry for the fact he is no longer with his mother anymore. The first sign of pathos being used within this commercial would be when the mother disappears, leaving the boy completely alone in an airport while sad music
Different groups and people can claim they align with Occupy Wall Street, but since they do not have a leader, no individual can gain the ethos necessary to claim to speak for the entire group, or keep the movement focused on a concise and practical message. The fact that Occupy Wall Street is leaderless also delegitimizes Occupy Wall Street. If a member of Occupy Wall Street spoke about something that was clearly erroneous, and said something like all cops should be shot, then Occupy Wall Street cannot actually distance itself away from those erroneous comments of one individual, for they lack a leader or structural hierarchy to clearly define goals or to adequately condemn certain individuals in their movement who speak erroneously, and Occupy Wall Street prides itself on being all-inclusive. With effective social movements, like the AA civil right movement, leader were able to distance themselves and their organizations

In the Freedom Writers Diary, the authors focus on the topic of the reality of what they have to deal with in their everyday world. Their teacher Mrs. Gruwell inspired them throughout their high school years by teaching them that it is possible for each and every one of them to change. They write with an uplifting and hopeful outlook on the world even if it not realistic in their present circumstances. In their writing, they establish an effective use of pathos by writing about their own lives and how they connect to others and us by using the selection of detail, metaphors, and allusions. Through these devices, we come to the idea that even though teenager’s in today’s world are faced with many hardships, they do not have to succumb to them.
Although the tomb of the Andronici in Act I of Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus and the pit in the forest in Act II are physical locations most likely represented by the same trap door on stage, they symbolize two disparate entities. The tomb symbolizes solace and an end to the daily, even lifelong, suffering of the Andronici. Titus refers to his sons as “Rome’s readiest champions” where they will no longer be accosted by treason or envy (Act I.1.154-156). The Andronici family is wrought with pain and suffering starting with the patriarch, Titus, and continuing down through the twenty-one sons that he has put to rest after they sacrificed their lives in the name of Rome. In fact, Titus refers to the tomb’s inhabitants as “Rome’s servitors” during
From the biting frost of the weather to a rare stub of cigarette, ‘One Day in the life of Ivan Denisovich’ by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is a short novel about a prisoner named Ivan Denisovich Shukhov, who is one of millions heartlessly imprisoned for countless years in a Stalinist labor camp located in Siberia sometime in the 1950’s. Though he is somewhat uneducated, he is hardworking a working-class and his daily struggle represents that of the average Russian citizen, along with the other inmates in the camp.

I chose this piece of literature because it was a recommendation and i ended up enjoying all of it, the characters, emotion and theme of the play really tied the story together for me, and i enjoyed it immensely. The characters were unique and it was a breath of fresh air to see the theme of feminism encompassed with archetypal symbols of Athenian and Greek Tragedy. I conducted my research by first off adding footnotes while i was reading, and then going back and looking at them after i was finished, i then looked online and went more into the depth about the undertones of the story and why is was such a popular piece of literature that has survived so many years.

As an actor you are required to be able to elicit emotion. Stanislavski’s questions help produce such emotion through performances. Stanislavski’s questions are a series of questions which assist actors to enhance the emotion in their performance to make them more convincing.
