Non-Fiction Rhetorical Analysis

Analyze the argument of your non-fiction book.  Write an essay in which you:

• Identify purpose, audience, and the argument your author’s making
• Analyze the rhetorical devices and appeals the author makes
• Pinpoint and argue any fallacies, holes in the argument, or general weaknesses

Basically, use everything we’ve discussed, learned in EAA, and done with the books we’ve read and discussed together—only now you’re doing in on your own with a full-length text.  You should be thorough, convincing, and polished.  Use MLA, cite your quotes, and carefully edit your paper.

Length:  4-5 pages
