Literature homework help
Literature homework help. In keeping with the University requirement that we continue courses through on-line instruction, I have prepared the final activity for our class. On the syllabus, I specified the text that we would be using to discuss rhetoric and the African American experience. The text, entitled Liberating Language: Sites of Rhetorical Education in Nineteenth-Century Black America, is attached to this email in chapters so that they can be downloaded individually. The text is a total of 134 pages, and is certainly reader friendly. It is highly interesting in content, very informative, and you should enjoy reading the material presented there.
Instructions
Your responsibility for this activity is to read the text, and to write up responses to the itemized questions below. For ease of reading and responding, the questions are presented in the order that corresponds to the material as discussed in the text.
Your papers should be between 6-10 pages, double spaced, and sent to me by Wednesday, April 22. Please avoid sending papers in late.
As needed, I am available for clarification or consultation. This activity has been designed as a learning experience that connects rhetoric, as discussed in class, to the African American experience.
Questions
1) Discuss what is understood by the phrase “rhetorical education” for 19th century Black America. Although the expression is introduced early in the text on page 3, it is expanded upon throughout the text. Be sure to include in your discussion both (a) a definition of rhetorical education, and (2) its perceived contribution to alleviating the Black condition.
2) Since most Black Americans were not privileged to attend schools, colleges, or universities during the first half of the 19th century, discuss briefly the varied and various sites, settings, opportunities that they created to provide access to and development of rhetorical education/competence. This material is introduced in Chapter 2, but discussed throughout.
3) Select one male and one female during the 19th century, and discuss their respective journey toward rhetorical education. Also, what significant contribution did each make in the struggle for Black liberation?
4) Discuss the role of the Black press toward rhetorical education during the period under study.
