How does Galli describe Francis’ conversions? Galli writes in Francis of Assisi the entire life of Saint Francis, a man who was born in Italy in 1181 to wealthy parents. His father a cloth merchant, gave Francis everything and he lived a comfortable life and had many friends. Francis says himself that he lived in sin during his teenage years, and at the age of twenty-five while settling out to join the fourth crusade, God spoke to him in a dream and told him to go home.
The documentation of A Voyage to Saint Domingo (1797) is a first account of Francis Alexander Stanislaus and Baron de Wimpffen of their comparisons concerning different cities in regard to racism, religious rites, and pride, which the two sailor’s believed the city of Saint Domingo, happen to be the worst of all Spanish colonies This account was created to provide prove of the difference in citizenship in Saint Domingo, better known as Haiti. Similarly, within our course materials there is plenty of information regarding the Spanish of being racist, slave owners, and imperialist.

The Unlikely Disciple: A Sinner’s Semester At America’s Holiest University by Kevin Roose gives a unique perspective on the different cultures in America and how diverse each one can be. Kevin Roose, an undergraduate at Brown University, decides to “study abroad” at the conservative evangelical Liberty University to see what it was like in stark contrast to his liberal Ivy League. Upon arriving there, he was an outsider who was used to seeing those types of people (evangelicals/born-again Christians) as kooks and weirdos, however, as he really dives into Liberty’s culture, he realizes that the students there really don’t hold secret meetings to create anti-abortion rallies or beat up gay kids in their spare time. There was a surprising amount

An article written Christopher Craig by called “’Nobody’s a bum all their life’: Teaching the Class Through William Kennedy’s Ironweed” suggests that “Francis does not make his personal decisions in a moral vacuum. Capitalist interest set the terms and conditions for these choices” (32). Disagreeably, I think his decisions are completely made in such “moral vacuum”, because of the religious family he was in when he was growing up. Doing “the right thing” and Catholicism go hand in hand.
In an excerpt from his “Pastoral Letter of 1792”, Bishop John Carroll, two years after being ordained as the first bishop in America, narrates the importance of educating children in the ways and teachings of God and the church. The purpose of his letter is to convince people, specifically parents in the diocese of Baltimore and in all of Catholic America, of the urgency for children to receive a Catholic education, and later expands this idea to advertise Georgetown University, a Catholic institution, which had opened three years prior, in 1789. He adopts an altruistic and encouraging yet earnest tone in addressing the audience in order to persuade their outlook on Catholic education. Bishop John Carroll begins his pastoral letter by addressing
In a letter refusing to recommend a women’s son to a bishop for university, Samuel Johnson crafts a complex argument against doing so and substantiates his position with legitimate reasons and evidence. Johnson’s argument is highlighted by his very successful blend of term definitions, progressions in tone, and rhetorical appeals to logic (logos). When these components were used concurrently, Johnson was able to display his decline of the women’s request while evading any blame on his part. In the very beginning of his letter, Johnson predicts the exact feeling that the mother who sent him a request possesses: “hope.”

In 2015, The Atlantic Magazine published a article written by racial activist, Ta-Nehisi Coates who presented, “Letter To Son, to address black men about social injustice in America, and how the opportunities differ based on race. His goal was to make an emotional appeal to black men to get them to understand that they aren’t the privileged ones, and he also wanted to make the privileged individuals feel ashamed of how they mistreat and make the society look down on the minority of black men. In the article, Coates states his experiences and emphasizes the mistreatment of blacks and he refers back to slave to derive a ample amount of anger out of blacks. Within the text, Coates uses a repetition of words to explain that in society, black individuals are usually viewed as lower class which means they aren’t equal with the majority.
