Follow a Columnist – 1St Semester
Follow A Columnist – 1st Semester Originated by Jim Veal; modified by S. Ables 2/5/2016 Some of the most prominent practitioners of stylish written rhetoric in our culture are newspaper columnists. Sometimes they are called pundits – that is, sources of opinion, or critics. On the reverse side find a list of well-know newspaper columnists. Select one (or another one that I approve of) and complete the tasks below. Please start a new page and label as TASK # each time you start a new task. TASK 1: Inform Ms. Ables of your selection for the columnist you will follow. DUE THUR/FRI September 15/16 TASK 1—Brief Biography to reveal their bias. DUE TUES/WED September 27/28 — 10 points Write a brief (100-200 word) biography of the columnist. Suggestions of details to include: birthdate, childhood, education, career, previous jobs, awards, unique experiences, etc. I suggest you import a picture of the author if possible. TASK 2—Five Annotated Columns, complete with a Rhetorical Triangle. DUE TUE/WED November 29/30—50 points Make copies from newspapers or magazines or download them from the internet. All articles must come from the current year. I suggest cutting and pasting the columns into Microsoft word and double-spacing them because it makes them easier to annotate and work with. Your annotations should emphasize such things as: - the assertion of the columnist - identify appeals to logos, pathos, or ethos - what rhetorical strategies are being used to support their assertion? - the tone (or tones) of the column - errors of logic (if any) that appear in the column (logical fallacies) - the way the author uses sources, the type of sources the author uses (Be sure to pay attention to this one!) - the apparent audience the author is writing for - in other words, look for all the components in our Rhetorical Triangle. -

Old-Style Mariachi Music Cascades out of Gritty Strip Mall to Infuse New Generations - Joel Selvin, Chronicle Senior Pop Music Critic Thursday, October 5, 2006
Old-style mariachi music cascades out of gritty strip mall to infuse new generations - Joel Selvin, Chronicle Senior Pop Music Critic Thursday, October 5, 2006 In a small strip mall in the East Bay near the end of San Pablo Avenue, Los Cenzontles Mexican Arts Center sits between a run-down coin laundry and a Smart & Final discount store, a few blocks from the Richmond/San Pablo city line. Nearby are some of the toughest neighborhoods in California, 24/7 drug dealing on every corner, death and violence at hand every day. More than 200 students traipse through the remodeled liquor store each week to take music lessons in this hardscrabble part of town, blowing gently on the glowing ember of their culture that Los Cenzontles director Eugene Rodriguez is keeping alive. "We are playing the old-style mariachi music," he says, "something very few people have any value for." Rodriguez and the people at Los Cenzontles are working hard to preserve traditional Mexican music, teaching their grandparents' songs and dances to a new generation. In the trophy case in the center's light, airy main room are a photo of first lady Laura Bush giving Los Cenzontles an award, some of the 15 CDs the center has recorded with its touring company and photos of Los Lobos and Linda Ronstadt meeting with the students. Leather chairs and a couch that one student's parents dropped off on their way to the dump make a little living room at the end of the recital hall, lovingly built by more parents, many who work in the building trades. -

The Ghost As Ghost: Compulsory Rationalism and Asian American Literature, Post-1965
ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE GHOST AS GHOST: COMPULSORY RATIONALISM AND ASIAN AMERICAN LITERATURE, POST-1965 Lawrence-Minh Bùi Davis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed By: Professor Sangeeta Ray, Department of English Since the early 1980s, scholarship across disciplines has employed the “ghostly” as critical lens for understanding the upheavals of modernity. The ghost stands metaphorically for the lasting trace of what has been erased, whether bodies or histories. The ghost always stands for something , rather than the ghost simply is —a conception in keeping with dominant Western rationalism. But such a reading practice threatens the very sort of violent erasure it means to redress, uncovering lost histories at the expense of non-Western and “minority” ways of knowing. What about the ghost as ghost? What about the array of non-rational knowledges out of which the ghostly frequently emerges? This project seeks to transform the application of the ghostly as scholarly lens, bringing to bear Foucault’s notion of “popular” knowledges and drawing from Asian American studies and critical mixed race studies frameworks. Its timeline begins with the 1965 Immigration Act and traces across the 1970s-1990s rise of multiculturalism and the 1980s-2000s rise of the Multiracial Movement. For field of analysis, the project turns to Asian American literature and its rich evocations of the ghostly and compulsory rationalism, in particular Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior and China Men , Amy Tan’s The Hundred Secret Senses , Nora Okja Keller’s Comfort Woman , Lan Cao’s Monkey Bridge , Heinz Insu Fenkl’s Memories of My Ghost Brother , Shawna Yang Ryan’s Water Ghosts , and Ruth Ozeki’s A Tale for the Time Being . -
