Rhetorical analysis of one article I will use in my paper (#2)

This week we wrote our annotated bibliographies for our argumentative paper. I found it quite difficult to find academic sources to use in my paper. Many of the Analyses on characters come from non-academic websites, and there was not much to choose from. One article I did find was about the significance of Caliban in The Tempest. I found it interesting because it made the comparison between the “colonizer and the colonized.” This statement allows me to prove the naysayer wrong due to the fact that the main argument people use to make Caliban a victim is the attempted rape of Miranda. I am able to use the example that Caliban is the victim of “colonial rule and exploitation” which, in turn, causes him to strike back against his colonizer and force himself on Miranda (Significance of Caliban in Shakespeare’s The Tempest).

This week I noticed rhetoric in my life when my sister convinced me to buy her lunch at the Cheesesteak House. I had just gotten paid and she convinced me to use some of my money to buy her a lunch.

This week Greg Abbott has also announced that we will not be able to return back to school. This news greatly upset me, but I am trying to stay positive. (backyard-social-distancing prom, here we come 🙂 haha)
