DE Comp
Assignment: Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates
What
1. Read both books.
2. Take brief notes on each book to prepare for our first writing assignment which will be a rhetorical analysis comparing and contrasting the two. Remember, rhetorical analysis requires you to analyze strategies an author uses to communicate a message in his/her work. Therefore, strategies to look out for are flashback, allusion, characterization, contrast, repetition, symbolism, selection of detail, tone, point of view, and irony.
