Rhetoric Midterm

In the text box, enter your question (label it QUESTION, in all caps) and directly beneath it your answer (ANSWER in all caps). Be sure to include your name in your post.

As a guide to the kinds of questions I'm looking for, use the 30 midterm review questions posted on the EXAMS page of the course website. As an alternative to writing out an answer, you can refer us to a particular page in one of our textbooks or a page (provide URL) on our course website. You may post as many questions and answers as you like up until the evening of the midterm exam. However, I will have finished making up the exam by Sunday night, October 21, so if you'd like to see your question considered for the exam, post it by Sunday evening. I can't promise that I'll use your question (or even a version of it), but the review should be helpful in any case. Each evening I'll check the postings on the forum and correct or delete any misinformation that I might find there. Posting questions and answers isn't a requirement, but there's not a single good reason not to post at least one Q & A.

Message:   Good answer, but remember that I'm expecting you to be direct and concise in your answers to questions in Part C; otherwise, you won't have time to complete the exam within the time allowed. Try reducing this answer to two sentences: the first providing a definition of identification; the second explaining that White employs the strategy by moving from association with the crowd to identification with the young performer in his meditation on our shared mortality.

Also, unless you're asked for direct quotations (not too likely when the text isn't in front of you) don't try to conjure them up. Keep in mind that you'll have only about four minutes to spend on each question in Part C.
