Summary Of Colleen E. Kelle's Pentadic Analysis

401 Words2 Pages

For example, Colleen E. Kelle uses pentadic criticism to analyze former U.S. Congressman George Hansen of Idaho rhetorical decisions made that led to two situations. The first pentad for Kelle was George Hansen's felony conviction in April of 1984. Kelle states, “An agent-purpose ratio dominated this pentadic justification of Hansen's conviction because of a selfish desire for personal gain. Hansen lied about his financial dealings; i.e., flaws in the character of Hansen as agent resulted in selfish goals and illegal actions” (Kelle 206). The second pentadic analysis deals with George Hansen reelection bid. The scene is the events linked to Hansen's past seven terms as the representative from Idaho's second congressional district. Kelle finds …show more content…

Alexandra Pelosi interviews with the tech employing have the similar element. The techies don't speak on the issue of gentrification, but they focus on how the scene of San Francisco is the perfect place to develop and create new ideas that will, in turn, lead to better connectivity worldwide. Rhe documentary shifts to the dark side of progress, by focusing more on the act of displacement that the natives of San Francisco are experiencing. Gabriel Sealey-Morris analysis address songs, “Burke's pentadic ratios provide a tangible demonstration of how the songs while using the same essential elements, create remarkably different effects with remarkably minor shifts in emphasis” (Sealey-Morris 408). While Gabriel Sealey-Morris analysis addresses songs, her statement rings true to my analysis because of the scene, San Francisco, is the same in both viewpoints of gentrification, but the effects of the gentrify are shifted to emphasize their elitist demeanor of the cost of progress has on the natives of San Francisco being displaced. Richard E, Crable and John Makay explain, “As rhetoricians seeking to understand discourse and the meaning in nonverbal sources as well, we need to understand why events, including their constituent parts, occur” (Crable and Makay 17).

Bennie calls it “the takeover (70)” in the book. Gentrification is what its called when wealthy people and businesses move to low income areas and rebuild and move in and push out the low income businesses and families because this change makes it more expensive for families to live there. “The place that Sierra and Bennie used to get there hair done had turned into a fancy bakery of some kind, and yes, the coffee was good, but you couldn’t get a cup for less then three dollars. Plus everytime Sierra went in, the hip, young white kid behind the counter gave her either the don’t cause no trouble look or the I want to adopt you look(70).” While Izzy enjoys sitting in the new, expensive coffee shops and writing poetry, the threat in the changing culture is shown when Sierra is chased through the streets by spirits and no one in the white neighborhood will help her because they assume about her and think the worst of her for being

Joe Johnson 01/04/18 Writ 1122 Online Yin & Yang To begin, it is important to lay out the definition that each Lloyd Bitzer and Richard Vatz give to the rhetorical situation. According to Lloyd Bitzer “Rhetorical situation may be defined as a complex of persons, events, objects, and relations presenting an actual or potential exigence which can be completely or partially removed if discourse, introduced into the situation, can so constrain human decisions or action as to bring about the significant modification of the exigence.” (Bitzer) Put into layman’s terms, Lloyd Bitzer believes that there are three main parts that create a rhetorical situation – Exigence, Audience, and a set of constraints.

Is Ed Lee's Unorthodox Path To Becoming Mayor Of San Francisco?

1209 Words | 5 Pages

He was chosen by Rose Pak in order to benefit her voting bloc, which consisted of mostly lower-income Asian-Americans. Yet much like the city he presides over, he has shifted from a progressive mayor of the lower-income, to a mayor eager to draw business to the city, albeit at a high cost. Mayor Lee’s acquiesce to the technology industry has thus proved to be a double-edged sword. While San Francisco revenues have skyrocketed, the unemployment rate has dropped to a miniscule 3.6%, and homicides have fallen (most likely because the homicides in San Francisco take place in a few select neighborhoods, which have all undergone large amounts of gentrification), one must ask at what cost this prosperity comes. The chief criticism comes in the housing market-the median rent has increased by $1630 since 2011, a jump that has forced a significant amount out of the city.

Gentrification All Bad Justin Davidson Analysis

1841 Words | 8 Pages

There has to be a realistic solution that can be put into motion to benefit everyone involved. Referring again to his article “Is Gentrification All Bad?” Davidson argues that urban renewal, if done right, is not a monstrous custom that it is painted to be; nevertheless, he reasons that gentrification depends on who does it, how they do it, and why they do it. As a resident in New York, a city where gentrification is as widespread as the common cold in winter, Davidson speculates that those who go into a neighborhood with the intention to renovate houses, or abandoned buildings ought to have a good reason for it. The author points out that “Gentrification does not have to be something that one group inflicts on another…” (Davidson 349), rather, he suggests that everyone, the gentrifiers and the locals, be on the same page when it comes to developing their

Much to his dismay, he couldn’t find any correlation between gentrification and displacement. What was surprising to Freeman was his discovery, “poor residents and those without a college education were actually less likely to move if they resided in gentrifying neighborhoods”. (Sternbergh, 19) Freeman adds, “The discourse on gentrification, has tended to overlook the possibility that some of the neighborhood changes associated with gentrification might be appreciated by the prior residents.” (Sternbergh, 19)
