Visual Rhetoric

Look back through your daybook and find the definition of rhetoric.  If you can't, look it up.  Everyone write it down again. 

Let's make a list:  what makes writing effective?

Now.  Look at "The Fall of Icarus" on my desktop.  What makes an image effective?  Then you look at this photo.

Look at pages 285-300 in The Bedford Guide. Read them.  In your daybook, make a re-visualization of the graphic on page 286.

I hand out the assignment sheet for this paper.

Homework:

1.  Start looking for two ads that you will be able to write about, one a success, the other a failure.  Look either in magazines or online.


2.  Finish reading pages 286-300 in The Bedford Guide. Draw a version of the graphic on page 286 in your daybook (be creative!).

3.  TWFTD: manipulate  in the OED
