Journal 4 – Rodriguez – “The Achievement of Desire” (cont.) SLOs 1, 3, 6, 8 In this text, Rodriguez refers to himself in both the third person, “the boy” (533), and in the first person, “I” and “my” (533). He continues in the first person,“I,” until he shifts both his tone and narrative point of view to the third person (535), “the boy,” although he is still recounting his personal experiences. After several paragraphs, he again shifts to the first person (end 536). He is a professional writer, and he isn’t randomly switches back and forth. In this journal entry, you will explore reasons he might make these rhetorical choices. For questions 1&2, support your claims with a specific example from the text. 1. How would you describe his tone and word choice when he writes in the first person? 2. How would you describe his tone and word choice when he shifts to the third person? 3. Finally, how do these rhetorical shifts effect the way you read/respond to these different sections?
