Homework for September 8th


Read pages 62-75 in the Harbrace book for class.  Begin thinking about which of the essays we have read and discussed that you would like to rhetorically analyze.  The texts to choose from are as follows: "Why I Want a Wife," by Judy Brady; "Letter from Birmingham Jail," by Martin Luther King Jr.; "A Modest Proposal," by Jonathan Swift; and "The American Male at Age Ten," by Susan Orlean.  We will begin to discuss how to draft your papers on Monday.
