Blog Assignment Eleven

This week we focused on the rhetorical elements of the novel All Quiet on the Western Front. You had an opportunity to divide into groups, focus on one, sometimes two elements, and then present your findings. At that time, I offered additional feedback to your comments to illustrate how an author uses rhetoric to convey the important themes of the work.

Post 1: Tell me why you think I had you do this exercise. What was the purpose. Did you have any revelations about, well, anything? How will your understandings change the way you approach literature?

Post 2: Please respond to another classmate's post.

As always, posts must evidence authenticity, reflection and original thought. Please spend some time with this.(20 points)
