This document discusses the concept of rhetoric and identification. It provides definitions and perspectives from Aristotle and Kenneth Burke. Aristotle defined rhetoric as the art of finding means of persuasion. Burke viewed rhetoric as identification, noting that identification can range from a politician identifying with voters to mystic identification with all beings, but that identification also implies division. The document asks what means form identifications and examines how identification can have powerful or deadly effects. It introduces the concept of "readymades," or prefabricated cultural objects and texts used to signal identification with a group. An exercise is provided to identify readymades associated with different groups.

44 HORROR AND THEMONSTROUS-FEMININE ANIMAGINARY ABJECTI.docx
This summary provides an overview of Barbara Creed's analysis of the monstrous-feminine in horror films through the lens of Julia Kristeva's theory of abjection:
1) Kristeva's theory of abjection explores how societies establish borders between human and non-human through the exclusion of that which threatens identity and meaning. A key figure of abjection is the maternal, as the child rejects the mother for the father and symbolic order.
2) For Kristeva, abjection includes things like bodily wastes, decay, the corpse, and the feminine body which threaten the boundaries of the self. Horror films confront viewers with abject figures like vampires, zombies, and witches

Archetypes symbols Hunter2011
The document discusses archetypes and their relationship to creative works and pedagogy. It provides an overview of Jungian archetypes like the shadow, wise old man, mother, and explains how archetypes emerge in symbols and influence human experience across cultures. Case studies of To Kill a Mockingbird and Sons and Lovers are presented, showing how racial archetypes impact the former and how denial of the male archetype affects the protagonist in the latter. The document proposes having students map archetypes in texts and outlines creative writing applications involving archetype mapping.
Final Essay on Nietzsche final draft
The document summarizes Nietzsche's theory on the origins and evolution of morality as presented in his work "Genealogy of Morals". According to Nietzsche, the concepts of "good", "bad", and "evil" originated as terms used by ruling noble classes to describe social status rather than moral concepts. Over time, the meanings evolved. The arrival of the priestly caste introduced the concept of the soul and changed "bad" to imply maliciousness. The priestly caste also led a "slave revolt" that inverted aristocratic morality by claiming the poor and suffering were good in the eyes of God. This new morality was born from resentment of the noble classes' freedom of expression. N

A True and Worthy Selfhood: Identity.

We create our identity by creating culture
Over time humans create categories
for thinking about self and the world –
That is a “dog.”
Dogs are edible.
Dogs taste good.

Knowledge by acquaitance.pptx
This document discusses the distinction between knowledge by acquaintance and knowledge by description as outlined by Bertrand Russell. Knowledge by acquaintance is direct, unmediated knowledge of one's experiences, like being aware of one's own pain. Knowledge by description is indirect or inferential knowledge, like knowing the biochemical structure of one's brain. Russell believed knowledge by acquaintance was the most basic form of knowledge that knowledge by description relies upon, either by using concepts we are acquainted with or by inferring descriptions from our acquaintance with experiences.

Pitfalls of Science Communication
1. Many people resist scientific arguments not due to lack of education, but because the arguments are perceived as hostile to their values.
2. Highly educated groups tend to be the most polarized in their views on issues like vaccination and climate change.
3. This resistance stems from "identity-protecting cognition" where people seek out and accept information that confirms their preexisting beliefs while disregarding information that contradicts their values.
Rhetorical Dimensions of Open Letters
This document discusses the genre of open letters, which have two levels of audience - an explicit audience addressed in the letter and an implicit audience that the letter aims to persuade. Open letters maintain the fiction of addressing the explicit audience while also making an argument to the implicit audience. A key example is Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Letter from Birmingham Jail", which is explicitly addressed to clergymen but implicitly aims to persuade white moderates. The document provides tips for writing an effective open letter, such as deciding the audiences, identifying the purpose, and choosing an appropriate tone.

Rhetoric and Identification
- 2. what is rhetoric? not just for liars anymore!
- 3. old school Aristotle: Rhetoric is the art of finding the available means of persuasion in a situation. rhetoric = persuasion
- 4. “new rhetoric” rhetoric = identification Kenneth Burke: • “Identification ranges from the politician who, addressing an audience of farmers, says, ‘I was a farm boy myself,’ through the mysteries of social status, to the mystic’s devout identification with the source of all being.” • ”One need not scrutinize the concept of ‘identification’ very sharply to see, implied in it at every turn, its ironic counterpart: division. Rhetoric is concerned with the state of Babel after the Fall.”
- 5. what are some means by which identifications are formed?
- 6. identification can have powerful (even deadly) effects
- 7. identity = gist • given attributes (genetics, family, etc.) • readymade attributes (prefabricated) *Ramage, pp 42-45
- 8. “readymade”: already-existing cultural object, text, or persona, used to signal identification with a group
- 10. example of a readymade object + text
- 11. In-class exercise: what readymades are associated with three groups with which you identify? Group Readymade Objects Readymade Texts Group 1 Group 2 Group 3…(etc)
Editor's Notes
- beginning of class writing prompt: name all the groups that you identify with.
