In order to gain the public’s attention, some radical groups use any rhetorical means necessary, including offensive remarks and conduct. Groups, such as the Westboro Baptist Church and Bash Back!, rhetorically challenge the boundaries of prudence. The purpose of this study is to identify, depict, and provide insight regarding shock rhetoric. This study will compare protest methods, visual imagery, and language choices used by Bash Back! and the Westboro Baptist Church. This dissertation helps illuminate why and how groups or individuals use shock rhetoric. -

Chicago on the Aisle 147 CHICAGO STUDIES
Chicago on the Aisle 147 CHICAGO STUDIES Claudia Cassidy’s Music Criticism and Legacy HANNAH EDGAR, AB’18 Introduction Criticism of value is not a provincial art. It has nothing whatever to do with patting undeserving heads, hailing earnest mediocrities as geniuses, or groveling in gratitude before second-rate, cut-down or broken-down visitors for fear they might not come again. It is neither ponderous nor pedantic, virulent nor hysterical. Above all, it is not mean-spirited. Ten what is it? Ideally, criticism is informed, astute, inquisitive, candid, interesting, of necessity highly personal. Goethe said, “Talent alone cannot make a writer. Tere must be a man behind the book.” Tere must be a person behind the critic. Nobody reads a nobody. Unread criticism is a bit like an unheard sound. For practical purposes it does not exist. — Claudia Cassidy 1 1. Claudia Cassidy, “Te Fine Art of Criticism,” Chicago, Winter 1967, 34. THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO 148 In June 1956, Chicago magazine ran an eye-catching cover story. A castle composed of colorful shapes, as though rendered through collage, overlap over a parchment-white backdrop. In the form of one of the shapes is a black-and-white photo of a woman of indeterminate age: fair-faced, high cheekbones, half-lidded eyes, a string of pearls around her neck and a Mona Lisa smile on her lips. She is named, coronated, and damned in one headline: “Claudia Cassidy: Te Queen of Culture and Her Reign of Terror.”2 When Bernard Asbell wrote this profle, Clau- dia Cassidy was the chief music and drama critic of the Chicago Tribune and at the height of her career. -
