Guiding Questions For Researching Rhetorically 1:
1. For each of the texts, you may look closely at these questions, paying particular attention to how the texts are similar or different in these areas:
Who is the audience for the text and what was the author’s purpose? Remember that the audience cannot be “everyone”. (For example, does the audience belong to a particular age group? To a specific geographical location? A political affiliation? A specific career or degree of knowledge? Look for clues in the text as to who the writer is writing for.) What is the context for their argument? What is the writer responding to? What do you know about the author/place of publication?
How does the writer use evidence/information? Are there any differences in the way the two sources use information? Is the evidence/information reliable? Why or why not?
How does the writer establish credibility/authority? Is that authority appropriate in this context and/or for this audience?
- What is the level of bias or degree of advocacy in the medium where this source was published? For example, if your source is a newspaper article, does the newspaper have strong political beliefs, to the point that they are very selective in the information they share, or is that newspaper trying to be “neutral”. If you look into the newspaper/website/etc, you might get clues. What might you say are the medium’s values? Try to understand if this author is advocating a specific position (or is “neutral”) and/or if the place where this source was published advocates a position (or is “neutral”).
Tips: for an article, you might read the Wikipedia page to learn more about the magazine or newspaper in which it is published. For a social media post, you might click on the profile and see if the other posts indicate a bias. For a website, you might look at the “about page” or read other perspectives on this website.
- Look at the WAY the author makes the argument. What stylistic choices does the author make? What content choices? What choices regarding images, layout, etc? Are their photographs or graphs? Long or short paragraphs? Lots of quotes? How do such choices relate to their rhetorical purpose/s? For example, how do their choices help develop their ethos/credibility? How do the stylistic choices support their argument? How do their choices help them connect with the audience? Again, considering what the sources do similarly or differently can help you identify these elements.
- Given the audience, purpose, genre and the message of the text, what do you think might be the limitations of the text? What can that source not do? For example, a letter is usually addressed to a specific audience and does not usually include images; a news article is addressed to a more public audience and sometimes includes images. One limitation of a news article, then, is that it can’t usually address a single specific person about a personal issue. Texts can be limited do to their genre, due to their audience, due to their purpose.
- 2. You should be sure to consider in your answer how the differences between the texts impact the texts overall. For example, is one source more useful in terms of how much or what kind of information it provides? Is one text packaged in a way that’s easier for you to read or understand? Is one text more engaging? Be specific in your answer.
